Jordan Fisher (Glee, To All The Boys: P.S. I Still Love You) is set to race onto the set of The CW's The Flash as Bart Allen – known to many as Impulse, the fastest teenager on the planet.

Fisher will appear on the long-running superhero series as a guest star. Born in the 30th century, Bart Allen is the grandson of Barry Allen. Throughout his comic book history, Bart has gone by several names. Originally, he was known as Impulse to reflect his impulsive attributes but then changed his alias to Kid Flash as he got older. His introduction will be a part of The Flash's 150th episode, which is quite a milestone. Impulse's arrival is bound to present new challenges for Barry and Iris, especially since they're already dealing with a threat unlike Team Flash has ever faced before.

Fisher recently wrapped his participation for Hello, Goodbye and Everything in Between. The film, directed by Michael Lewen (producer for The King of Staten Island, Love, and Trainwreck), revolves around a pair of high school sweethearts, who recount their time together on the night before they head off to college. Fisher himself is what I like to refer to as a Swiss Army knife of talent, meaning that he does it all as a producer, musician, actor, dancer, and activist. Soon, he'll be adding the job of superhero to that list. Is there anything this kid can't do?
