The Flash S08: "Legends" Star Caity Lotz Confirms Final Directing Day

Look at this! A second update on The CW's The Flash and we're still hours away from Barry (Grant Gustin), Iris (Candice Patton), and the rest of Team Flash returning in "Impulsive Excessive Disorder." Earlier today, we had a chance to look ahead at what's the come for the next three episodes (more on that below) but we had to check back in because we have an update from DC's Legends of Tomorrow star Caity Lotz ("The Satanist's Apprentice," "Mortal Khanbat" & "wvrdr_error_100 not found"), who is in the middle of directing an upcoming episode for this season. Well, she was in the middle- but as you're about to see, it looks like today's her final day in the director's chair (for now):

Here's a look back at Lotz making one of those bold & necessary "safety-first" fashion statements from earlier this week before getting down to the "serious business" of showing where filming was happening to explain why the clothing precautions were so important:

And here's a look at Lotz's Instagram post announcing that her work on the episode was underway:

Now here's that intel we shared earlier today offering on what's to come for the first three episodes back: S08E06 "Impulsive Excessive Disorder" (new images), S08E07 "Lockdown" (images & overview), and S08E08 "The Fire Next Time" (overview). When The Flash returns for its post-"Armageddon" eighth season tonight, Bart (Jordan Fisher) and Nora (Jessica Parker Kennedy) need to do some serious time fixing- and that's going to involve getting to know their dad Barry (Grant Gustin) a whole lot better. Now here's a look at the promo for "Impulsive Excessive Disorder," followed by the overview and an updated set of preview images with five new additions:
