It looks like Keiynan Lonsdale will be hanging up his Kid Flash costume. The actor who plays the superhero on "The Flash" and "Legends of Tomorrow" will not be returning to either show as a series regular, Deadline has confirmed.

Just because he won’t be a regular, doesn’t mean it’s necessarily mean it’s the end for Kid Flash (a.k.a. Wally West). He will be appearing in the season 5 premiere of "The Flash".

The Australian actor originally joined "The Flash" as a series regular in season 2.

Keiynan Lonsdale explains his Arrowverse exit (http://ew.com/tv/2018/06/06/keiynan-lonsdale-leaving-the-flash-legends-tomorrow/)
Lonsdale, who jumped from The Flash to Legends of Tomorrow last season, says he won't be back full-time on either series next year. “I’ve changed a lot in the past year (as you’ve probably noticed lol), and for infinite reasons my perspective on life & what I want from it now is just completely different,” he explained on Instagram. “Because of that, my heart told me it was the right time to continue my journey on an unknown path, and I’m so damn grateful to both shows for honouring & respecting that with me.”
