Grant Gustin’s been brilliant as Barry Allen on The Flash, but it sounds like he wants a change in his career.

Here’s what Gustin said about wanting to play a villain next:

At this point, I’d say it’d be fun to play a villain, just because I’ve done so much Barry Allen over the years. I also loved getting the opportunity to play this character that innately has this suaveness, but is just so good and so well-intentioned. He has his downfalls and faults at times, but he really puts other people before himself. And I’ve learned a lot from Barry over the years. I love playing Barry. I don’t know. I definitely want to shake things up outside of Flash and play other kinds of things. But I also like playing a hero.

Seeing Gustin play a villain would be very interesting if you ask me.
