CW ‘Flash’ Finale Spoilers: Eddie Thawne Rick Cosnett Death and Season 2 Return Update

Major CW Flash Season 1 Finale Spoilers: During the epic Flash Season 1 finale, Eddie Thawne (Rick Cosnett) made the ultimate sacrifice in order to save Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) from The Reverse Flash/Harrison Wells/Eobard Thawne (Tom Cavanagh). Now, The Flash boss, Andrew Kreisberg is opening up about Eddie’s death and possible return in Season 2.

Following, Eddie’s sacrifice, Flash executive producer Andrew Kreisberg spoke to Entertainment Weekly about how it came about:

“This wasn’t always the plan, but it was always a possibility. When we named Eddie’s character and gave him the last name of Thawne, there was a whole subset of the audience that believed he was the Reverse Flash, which was intentional. But then we had to live with: Why did he have that name? One of the sad, surprising things about the finale is that for all the good that Barry does, in the end it’s Eddie who saves the day.”

Kreisberg went on to add that we could see Eddie return in the future, the same we see Tommy and Sara on Arrow:

“It’s hard. It’s a terrible decision to have to make. We’ve been faced with that before, certainly when we made the decision with Colin Donnell on Arrow and Caity Lotz. As with both of those actors and characters, they lived to come back another day. While Rick won’t be a regular,Flash is the kind of show between hardcore sci-fi and time travel that I wouldn’t be surprised if this isn’t the last we’ve seen of Eddie Thawne.”
