First Look: CW’s ‘The Flash’ in Costume

We have the first look at CW’s The Flash in costume! The new pilot based on the characters published by DC Comics begins production next week with Grant Gustin as Barry Allen and The Flash.

The Flash’s costume was designed by three-time Academy Award® Winner Colleen Atwood, who also designed the costume for ARROW and whose motion picture credits include Academy Awards® for her work on Alice in Wonderland, Memoirs of a Geisha and Chicago, as well as seven additional Oscar® nominations for films such as Snow White and the Huntsman, Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street and Sleepy Hollow, among others.

If you’re not familiar with The Flash here’s a little background information – Through a freak accident, scientist Barry Allen is given the power of super speed that transforms him into the Fastest Man Alive.

The Flash pilot is executive produced by Greg Berlanti, Andrew Kreisberg and David Nutter (all of Arrow). Nutter is directing from a script by Berlanti & Kreisberg & DC Entertainment Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns.
