The CW’s upcoming Arrow spin-off, The Flash, is one of our most anticipated new shows of the 2014-2015 season, especially after that extended trailer raced its way online.
Glee alum Grant Gustin will play Barry Allen, who made his debut on Arrow last year and was given a stamp of fan approval for his portrayal of the future Scarlet Speedster. IGN recently sat down with Gustin to discuss his role and how the show will ultimately differentiate from Arrow. Here’s what he had to say:
“Barry’s just excited by all of this. He’s a fanboy! And I don’t have to hide my excitement as I play the role, so it’s really fun to play with. At the same time though, it’s in a reality-based world, so there is an aspect of him that’s a little worried about what’s happening to his body.

More a gallery of beautifully shot cinematic tableaus from the lives of turn-of-the-20th-century rebel lovers Nora Barnacle and James Joyce than a satisfying -- or even comprehensible -- biographical exercise, this Irish/Italian/German co-production arrives with no fanfare in a few local theaters for a perfunctory release via Andora Pictures.
Directed and co-written by Pat Murphy, "Nora" has a tough time, like most of its ilk, making a difficult genius like Joyce (even when played by Ewan McGregor) into an irresistible movie character. Murphy co-wrote the script, based on the biography by Brenda Maddox, with Gerard Stembridge.
While focusing on Susan Lynch ("Waking Ned Devine") as Joyce's lifelong love -- a Galway native who comes from an abusive home life and meets him in Dublin -- is a promising angle coming from a woman filmmaker, "Nora" is still a muddy tale of sex, love, obsession, jealousy, cruelty and abandonment that can keep one at a distance.
The film's atmosphere, including the terrific period sets and costumes, is a real turn-on, in a moody kind of way, and hotel maid Nora and budding writer Joyce's first late-night stroll, which leads to a lusty embrace in the shadows, is a racy start to their affair. She's the take-charge type, and he falls in love instantly. Because of his frustration over not being published in Ireland, a foreign job offer and her "secret" past, they move to Trieste, Italy, and live like a married couple.
Their landlady kicks them out when Nora becomes pregnant, but Joyce's erratic behavior is the real problem. Like a drunk and his moods, Nora and Joyce's love for each other shifts from bitter scenes of verbal fighting to genuinely warm moments when drinking and singing bring them together. She has plenty of untapped love and affection but is fatefully attached to a man who pushes her away.
With a few visits to the sunny seashore and many train trips, "Nora" spans several years and reaches a high point when the lead recalls a former lover while watching a silent Italian movie and tells Joyce. He turns it into the short story "The Dead", and she is deeply hurt. Indeed, Joyce seems to relish punishing her with insinuations that she's a tramp and even prodding her to have an affair with an innocently friendly newspaper editor (Roberto Citran).
During one stretch of separation, the lovers write erotic letters to each other, and the scenario indulges in a flurry of masturbation scenes, but even two children, peacekeeping missions by Joyce's younger brother (Peter McDonald) and Joyce's finally choosing to stop believing Nora detractors like Cosgrave (Daragh Kelly) are not enough to end hostilities. By the film's upbeat end, the viewer has learned a little about one of the world's great writers and earned a pint to unwind afterward.
