John Wesley Shipp Is Suiting Up For 'Elseworlds'

Philadelphia (CW Philly) — John Wesley Shipp, who played Barry Allen in the '90s The Flash series as well as Henry Allen in the current CW series, will appear in this year's DC Crossover "Elseworlds."

Arrow star Stephen Amell was honored to work alongside Shipp and took to Twitter to share his excitement. "No big deal. Just working with @JohnWesleyShipp for the first time. Nice of him to dress up for the occasion," he wrote.

Amell also shared a photo of him and Shipp both donning red speedster suits.

While Amell was all smiles, Grant Gustin [Barry Allen] expressed his jealously on Instagram. "Not that this Arrow costume isn't incredibly comfortable, but I'm pretty jealous that @stephenamell is wearing my Flash suit in a picture with @johnwesleyshippjr wearing his OG Flash suit. WHAT'S GOING ON!?," Gustin humorously captioned his post.
