The Flash Season 3 may be over, but that doesnât mean Keiynan Lonsdale, a.k.a. Kid Flash, isnât keeping busy. He was just cast in the upcoming Greg Berlanti directed film Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda and recently filmed a music video for an unreleased song, possibly one he performed at a recent concert at The Roxy in Los Angeles. While many Flash fans probably (definitely) want to know if Kid Flash is going to trade in a yellow suit for a red one, Lonsdale assured Newsweek yellow is his favorite color and warned fans not to get ahead of themselves.
tâs not something thatâs on my radar,â Lonsdale told Newsweek. âI feel as though there is so much story to tell and Wally has so much growing to do. Iâd like to see that journey continue. That's what I think is important. We need to see how these character realistically get to where they are headed for.â

If itâs any consolation, Lonsdale is fairly anti-spoiler. Thereâs no question his lips are going to remain sealed, especially after a slip up in Season 2.
âI accidentally revealed that Rick Cosnett was coming back. I was with Candice and we were freaking out because it was a livestream and I hadn't done that before. I didnât completely reveal it but smart fans caught on and I freaked out because I had only been there for a month. I was like, âOh my god, I ruined everything!ââ
Right afterword, he called executive producer Andrew Kreisberg to apologize. Luckily, Lonsdale said Kreisberg himself always worries about spoiling things too and not to worry. Since, Lonsdale has been extra careful because he does think it takes away from the journey of the viewer.
âI had a situation with a friend recently who spoiled a major thing for me and they didn'tâ realize they did it. As much as I'm still going to watch the show and enjoy it, I didnât get to have that journey and the surprise and ups and downs and questions. It's like if sometime tells you your entire future for your life, suddenly you're not as invested in the moment,â Lonsdale said, also warning fans if youâre behind by a season on something, you probably shouldn't follow the actors on social media.
But if youâre caught up with The Flash, do follow Keiynan Lonsdale on Twitter. Lucky fans got a chance to meet and shoot a music video with him in Los Angeles. While thereâs no word on when exactly Lonsdale is releasing new music, he did just perform his first show in the United States.
âI hadnât performed in years and never to a crowd that had bought tickets. They didn't really know who I was or the song I was singing because it was Louis Futonâs show, a producer I've been working with. He had me come out at the end and I did two songs. At that moment when I was onstage I really wasnât sure whether I was going to be good or not, but it was really the ultimate feeling,â he said.
Lonsdale said he was extremely nervous before he got onstage, and thatâs because he considers himself and introverted extrovert. Itâs something heâs felt since he was a kid, and still feels today.
âIâve always had these big dreams and wanted to be on stage, but as soon as I got off stage I didnât want anyone looking at me or talking to me because it made me feel sick. I suffered a lot from social anxiety and being on set was really scary to me,â he said. âThat fear can cause limits in your art and your performance because you're not going all in because there is this little thing in your head.â
