Keiynan Lonsdale is No Longer a Series Regular on "The Flash" and "Legends of Tomorrow"

According to reports, actor and singer Keiynan Lonsdale who plays Wally West (a.k.a. Kid Flash) on The CW's Flash and Legends of Tomorrow TV series will no longer be a series regular. I've mentioned before that his Wally is one of my favorite versions of the character because he's fun and always ready for an adventure.

Lonsdale put out a message June 6th on Instagram to let fans know about his decision to limit his appearance. I posted it below.

As a fan, it's sad to see him go but at least he will still be a guest star from time to time. Besides appearing on The CW, Lonsdale recently starred in the movie Love, Simon.  Here's the message he posted:

Yo! Soo as a lot of you have now read, I’m not returning next season as a series regular for @cwtheflash or @cw_legendsoftomorrow. It’s definitely not a total goodbye or “see ya never” situation, cause Wally West will still be round when you need him the most! :) It’s just that it won’t be full time anymore.

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. 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. I love Kid Flash, I love the family I’ve made, & I’m absolutely in love with the invaluable lessons I’ve learnt along the way. Thank you for believing in me & rooting for Wally to thrive, you honestly helped me see that i did indeed deserve to play him, & that shit right there made me a stronger actor.  

Anyway, I hope you stick around for the new adventures, the only thing I can promise is Magic.

Love Keiy ⚡️
