Previous Post Like father, like son? The CW's upcoming superhero series “The Flash” has found it's role for John Wesley Shipp, who played the speedy, red-tighted hero in CBS's “The Flash” in the 1990s. In a move that's perhaps not surprising, Shipp has been cast as Henry Allen, the father of Barry Allen, AKA the Flash, who's being played by “Glee” alum Grant Gustin.

It'd be even crazier if he played Jay Garrick.
Maybe in one of the episodes he can break out the costume from his show as a Halloween costume!
