The Flash was on location for season 7 shooting at B.C. Place Stadium (better known as the exterior location of S.T.A.R. Labs) for a couple nights. The first night, they shot some scenes up on a stair case that some Arrow fans would recognize from a scene Oliver & Felicity did in season 3 (in the daytime though, and before major changes to the surrounding area), as well on the platform outside the stadiums gate there. These scenes seemed to consist of Grant Gustin as The Flash, and Efrat Dor as Eva McCulloch / Mirror Mistress. Very little of the scene could be seen for most of the night, but at one point I did see part of a scene being done where Eva seemed to be looking in 1 direction, then they had Grant move to the other side of her, and her turn around and look in that direction. They had more shooting to do that night, later on. But I went home when they had their lunch break INTENDING to come back in 90 minutes.... but instead I fell asleep and didnt wake up till the next day. So thats all I have to report from the first night... which is kind of a blessing, because the 2nd night was so big, I need to break it into 2 blogs. I do not know if any other cast worked that night, as I said, there was not a lot to see for most of the evening. Something I saw the 2nd night makes me think there could have been other cast on set the 1st night, but were positioned in a way that I never could see them. The second night, I saw much more going on..... although early on, there was not a lot to see.
All I knew early on was that Grant and Efrat were both on set again, along with Candice Patton as Iris West Allen, as well as at least 1 (as it turned out more than 1) person dressed in the same attire as Mirror Mistress. With Iris there in the same place as The Flash & Eva, this confirms that by this episode, Iris escapes the Mirrorverse. How, and when? That is something you will have to wait & see, as I did not see anything on these nights to suggest how it happened. The scene seemed to be very long, and dialogue heavy, as Eva stood facing away from me for quite a while, before eventually turning around, looking around with a very serious & solemn look. She then raises her arms, and Iris comes over and joins her. Grabbing her hand, and looking at Eva with a look of assurance. A bit later, a little more of the scene unfolded, and we see The Flash reaching out towards Eva. What is his plan? PART 2 blog with some spoilers is HERE. As well, in a week or so, there will probably be some video from these scenes up on my youtube channel. I will post those down below when they are ready as well. So check back in a few days for that. The Flash season 7 will air Tuesday nights on The CW in the U.S. starting February 23, 2021. You can now get exclusive first looks on my Patreon ahead of these blog posts. There is a photo tier for only $1 a month, as well as a video tier for $5 a month.

The Flash was on location for season 7 shooting at the Vancouver Concention Centre in downtown Vancouver for a couple days. Along with a shoot on top of a parkade 3 blocks away later on the 2nd day. While there was not much to see on the 1st day (I found the set, but between the rain soaked glass, and the position of props & crew, it was impossible to tell what was being shot), I did get a shot of a few crates with Black Hole logos on them. As well as some type of beam type machine, which I dont yet know what it is for. On the 2nd day, there was a lot more to see however. In the morning, a scene was shot right outside the convention centre with Candice Patton as Iris West Allen, along with Victoria Park as Kamilla Hwang. If you werent paying really close attention while there you might have missed that this was in the mirrorverse, as the garbage bins, and dog walking signs there were printed in reverse.... even down to the spray cans Kamilla uses to spray paint (in the proper direction) a message to Iris had the labels on in reverse. The scene had Kamilla finishing up her message to Iris, when Iris shows up at that spot, sees her, and walks over to her gives her a hug, and the pair talk for about a minute, before walking off together. Where the pair were heading after this is unknown, as the scene ends about 20 steps later. This scene is for episode 7X02, as you may be able to see by the clapperboard. It is directed by Alexandra LaRoche, who has directed 5 other The Flash episodes in the past, as well as 8 other Arrowverse episodes from Legends Of Tomorrow, Arrow & Supergirl. As with all the other sets I have been to so far, the covid-19 guidelines in place by our government seemed to be getting met, as all the crew were masked up, equipment and crew stations were well spread out, and in between takes the cast were also wearing their masks. If you want to see more photos (without some watermarks) from this set, you can find them on Just Jared HERE, as a photographer I know came down to shoot the set after I let him know they were there. After that scene wrapped, the production moved back inside the convention centre to resume filming interior scenes. Thankfully, this taxpayer built, city block long, building comes with a LOT of glass on it. Making it easy to see whats going on inside.... long as you know where to look. In this particular case, on a level generally used for large convention hall events. I do not know if this scene is for episode 2, or 1, as I did not think till well after the fact to check and find out. It wasnt till I got home & saw a photo I had taken which made me suspicious that they were shooting parts of 2 episodes on the same day (this is NOT that rare of an occurrence, probably happens a dozen or so times a season). Without going into painstaking detail how I got the info, and what that info was, lets just say, what I saw made me think there were scenes for 2 episodes being shot on this day. On set for this scene was Grant Gustin as The Flash, Efrat Dor as Mirror Mistress, and their stunt doubles. The first scene I saw shot there was pretty simple. It had The Flash standing about 100 feet away from Mirror Mistress, and he simply goes running at her. After they shot that scene, I left for a while as I wanted to get some other work done, and it looked like they were going to keep re-doing that scene. I came back about an hour & 1/2 later and things had changed slightly, now they had Grants double up on a rolling cart. He was prepping a scene that Grant himself would do a bit later, where he goes charging towards Mirror Mistress in a horisontal fashio, with his arm shoved forward. Considering Grants love of Superman, I wonder how much he wanted to put both arms out & pretend he was being Superman for the scene, as it very much looked like the way you would expect the Man Of Steel to fly through the air, except with out 1 arm extended. In the scene, The Flash flies towards Mirror Mistress, before she bobs & weaves his lunge, and The Flash goes flying by her, not making impact with her, as she looks on with an unimpressed look. After the wrapped that scene, I moved over to the 1 other shoot I knew they had. UNFORTUNATELY, I did not know exactly where it was till I had put in considerable time trying to figure it out. it was on top of a parkade that has been used a few times for other shows in the past. With no good sight lines, I eventually gave up. But not before I came across the 1 & only set of cast trailers out there. The trailer was for Danielle Panabaker, as it has the Caitlin Snow/Killer Frost tag on the door. While I never saw her there, the fact it was the only active trailer at the set made it pretty clear she was going to be in that scene on the roof. What was she doing there? Guess we'll have to wait & see. UPDATE: October 26, 2020, 1:15 PM - Video of the scenes has been added at the bottom of this post.

The Flash was on location for episode 18 of the 6th season in downtown Vancouver around the same location they had the final battle with Bloodwork for the end of the first half of season 6. It was a busy area for filming last night, as Batwoman was filming quite literally on the next block over. But I spent my time at The Flash, and good thing I did. Apologies in advance for some less than great photos. It was a perfect storm of things not going my way last night. Besides the typical Vancouver rain that I usually am used to, it was also pretty windy at times, I also was trying to work through that with my worst umbrella, as I have lost, or broken my other two better ones this season, and all that was amplified by the fact that TWICE in the night, I had my settings on my camera wrong. It was not a fun night all around. Last night they started a scene being done that included a couple stunt scenes first, with Grant Gustin and his stunt double Cody Laudan as The Flash in a battled versus........ GODSPEED! Yes, you heard that right. There were a couple scenes. First, one where they dropped a stuntman in the Godspeed outfit form several floors up onto a vehicle. A fan actually caught the rehearsal for this stunt earlier in the day here. After that Cody came out to do a scene where The Flash got thrown into a van. There was then a scene where Godspeed seems to be looking down at The Flash on the ground, and might be kneeling down towards him, when The Flash zips out of there. Lots of questions to be asked & answered from this reveal. Is this the actual Godspeed? is it another knock off like he battled at the start of the season? Is Godspeed part of Black Hole? However, Godspeed was not the only returnee last night. After Godspeeds first set of scenes, he left, and someone (I never was able to confirm if it was the same person, my vision isnt the best... if anyone else can confirm, or deny, or identify the person, please comment with that & I will update it) came in to do scenes dressed in a cloack, with gauntlets that glow green..... sound familiar? Pied Piper seems to be back. Oh, and he is helping The Flash. The pair did some scenes where they appear to be fighting Godspeed, as they both look up. At one point you hear someone yell out for The Flash, whether it was a crew member calling out a mark to Grant, or Piper asking him to help him, or to tell him to do something specific, I couldnt hear, all I heard was Flashs name get called out. A bit later, they did a scene where they slowly encroach on the vehicle Godspeed fell on. They get closer and Godspeed is laying flat out on the top of the crumpled vehicle. After that scene, they moved into the street. It was pouring rain, windy, and the only angle I had to see the scene was quite literally from just a bit under 2 blocks away thru traffic going along a major road, and all the crew & prop vehicles, so I only stayed for 3 or 4 takes of this scene. The scene SEEMED to have Godspeed grabbing a random person (if it is someone, I cant tell) while others run around in a panick. There also seemed to be a guy standing beside him at the start of the scene in a beige jacket wearing what appears to be sunglasses, which would be a bit odd in the middle of the night. Not sure if he is someone, or just a random crew/background person there. I know Grant went to set for this scene, so The Flash is in the scene..... somewhere, but I had a very limited window of space to view any of the scene which was frankly massive, so it was just luck that the part I could see had Godspeed in it. At about 3 AM, I decided I had enough of this, and went home. They were scheduled to film there for a couple more hours. So who knows what more might have gone on. Lastly, I just have to laugh at the Central City downtown map that doesnt actually have any street names, or the names of hotels etc. Just expects people to know what the street names are, and which hotel is which etc...... also, CC has several downtown Gas Stations..... while Vancouver itself only has ONE lol. There also was a van there for "Central City Crossover Comix & Collectibles" that seems to be owned by Barney Sands.... who is a character in the comics, as a neighbour of Barry as a kid.

The Flash shot some scenes for episode 6x12 in a place called "The Permanent". It is actually used a fair bit by the film industry, including recently in the Arrowverse where Sargon The Sorcerer got KO'ed in Crisis On Infinite Earths. All the filming was inside, as you can see from the 1 photo below, they didnt have any sightlines in there. Unlike when I shot the Sargon scene, and ended up as a little black & beige blur in the corner of 1 of the windows. On this day, a few cast were in & around the set. I saw Grant Gustin at one point dressed in his Flash attire. I also saw Hartley Sawyer at a couple points, in both Elongated Man, and Ralph Dibny attire. Jesse L Martin was there as Joe West. Along with them were two people I wasnt expecting. First up, Alexa Barajas was back as Ultraviolet. But the one I didnt know I had photographed at the time, till after the fact, and thus, why I forgot I had these till now was.... Natalie Dreyfuss as Sue Dearbon. At the time I thought it might be her, as I knew she should be coming in that episode, and she got dropped off in a cast vehicle, but I wasnt entirely sure, so I just kept it aside till I knew more. Then forgot about them, until todays promo photo of her in the Cop jacket came out & I put the pieces together. So heres a really quick little post of pics from the cast going in & out of the set that day. I know this is a shorter than usual blog post, but I was just reminded I had these photos from the new promos that came out for the episode today.

The Flash was on location for an episode of the 6th season a couple weeks ago in downtown Vancouver. It was a late night shoot, that started with severla cast members, including Grant Gustin as Barry Allen, Jesse L Martin as Joe West, Candice Patton as Iris West Allen and Danielle Nicolet as Cecile Horton were on set at this location at varying points. With a lot of picture vehicles on set for the scene, along with the productions equipment, there was very little to actually see of the scenes shot. All I know of the scenes with the actors is that there was a scene where Barry & Iris walk across the gravel parking lot, first 1, then the other a second or two later. Another scene had Joe walking the opposite direction from where they walked to. Later on, the only scene you could see clearly at any point was with Joe standing on top of something and looking forward. A bit later, after the cast had left the lot, they did a huge stunt scene with an exploding car that I was there for, but sort of missed the original explosion as I believed it was going to be the truck driving towards us blowing up, and not a random car in the background. Luckily I had my phone taking photos at the same time I was video taping it, so I got SOME photos of the explosion. But my video, I only caught the after effect of it. Throughout the night, I walked around the set (in fact, while I did so one time, was when Grant, and Candice came over & met some fans. One particular fan was nice enough to let me use a couple of their photos of their interactions in my post here), and found 3 different city billboards they had covered up with Central City specific ads. One for CC Jitters, One for Big Belly Burger, and 1 for Ralph Dibny, along with a parking sign for a Central City parkade. I was most amused with the Dibny one for the fine print on it that states he "No longer performs exorcisms/ demon removal". I am curious, does this have something to do with an upcoming episode? Or, does this have something to do with Dibs in the old timeline? A little curious on that one. At the end of the night, a driving scene was done, that had them drive a vehicle down the street past those ads we saw along the street.

The Flash was on location for the 6th episode of the season Thursday & Friday at the Pacific Central Train Station (aka - the train station we first meet Barry Allen getting out of in Arrow in Starling City). This time, Barry Allen was again there, but like last time, it was not in Central City again. This time, it was in Midway City, and this time, an Art Pavilion. For the first day & 1/2, the cast & crew were filming in an inaccessible to the public part of a basement in the station. During the time I was there over those two days, I saw Grant Gustin, Hartley Sawyer & Danielle Panabaker from the main cast going in, or coming out of there at some point. Along with a couple guest stars. One was Carlo Rota. Another I saw on the 2nd day showed up looking like a businessman of some type I never caught a name of. There was also 1 woman on the first day, a young attractive Asian woman, in all black leather, with a metal mask that was red. I dont know what her role was, but I did not see her the 2nd day unfortunately, so I never got anymore info than seeing her leave the 1st day. After the interior filming wrapped on the 2nd day, the crew and cast, along with the episodes director Danielle Panabaker, headed outside to shoot some night scenes. Of course, I had my hopes up that I might finally see The Flash in his season 6 uniform, but much to mine, and likely most of your disappointment, no such luck. Instead Grant & Hartley filmed a scene inside a car as Barry Allen & Ralph Dibny staking out an event at the Midway City Art Pavilion inside an only 1970s style car. Since the only vantage point to see this scene was the equivalent of about 3/4 of a football field away, shots for it are a bit fuzzy at best. Also should be noted, there was no way I could see what they were saying, or the tone of the scene. I did see the pair exchanging some laughs on occasion, but it was uncertain to me if they were during filming, or between scenes. The only thing I do know about the scene is at the end of it, Ralph gets out of the car and walks around to the back of it. Later on in the evening there was going to be a stunt shot with some men holding out guns that were going to get flung thru the air. I saw the stunts team practicing the scene in the daytime. But that was going to be filmed much later, so I didnt stick around to see it.

The Flash was on location for the third episode of the season yesterday in an area of downtown Vancouver between Chinatown and the downtown core. The crew and cast were shooting scenes for the 3rd episode of the season with 3 cast. Carlos Valdes as Cisco Ramon, Candice Patton as Iris West Allen were doing scenes where they were walking together looking at a contraption that screams Cisco made. Are they out searching for a meta? Or is Cisco helping Iris with her investigating? They eventually look up at something above them. A bit later, a scene was done that had Tom Cavanagh on set, dressed in new duds. His attire is very "Indiana Jonesesque" right down to swinging in off a rope. Cisco seems to say something to him that seemed like he was happy to see him, before "new Wells" (did not catch if he had a specific character name) grabs him, shoves him up against a wall with a robotic looking arm and talks to him while showing him a large ruby. I guess Cisco should just be lucky this version cant vibrate his hand through his chest. Eventually new Wells lets Cisco go, and that seemed to be the end of the scene as Carlos and Candice left shortly after that, with Tom leaving a bit later. What is new Wells character supposed to be? The attire was close enough to Indiana Jones that 1 of the fans there said that to him & he responded that it was the look they were going for.So what will the "sensual" and "swashbuckling" new Wells really be about? Guess we will have to wait and see. Tom stopped to sign autographs and take photos in full costume as he left. Earlier in the day, Candice also stopped and took photos with some fans. In a rare decision, Carlos was the one who did not seem into interacting with fans on this day.
