Amidst all of the updates for The CW’s DC Comics shows announced this week, another exciting piece of info has made its way online: Gorilla Grodd is coming back to The Flash, and he’s bringing a whole city with him. Speaking withCollider, executive producer Andrew Kreisberg offered a brief tease:
“Yes, we’re going to be doing a two-part episode that takes place in Gorilla City.”
You will recall that in Season 2 of The Flash, Gorilla Grodd was thrust into Earth-2 where the first tease of Gorilla City was offered; however, since Barry’s decision in the season finale has lead to the creation of the Flashpoint universe, what if we see Gorilla City on Earth-1 instead? Gorilla Grodd actually had his own one-shot story during the Flashpoint comic line, Flashpoint: Grodd of War, where he has taken over not only the ape-inhabited city but the entire continent of Africa.
The Flash Season 3 premiere is already set to debut on The CW on Tuesday, October 4 at 8 PM ET.
