I think it’s fairly likely for us to see a different version of Nora as long as JPK is up to it.

For Thawne, in the comics Thawne has become immune to changes from the timeline, presumably this happened to our Thawne too (maybe the Anti-Monitor brought him back to life sort of like Mallus with Damien). For Nora’s future, it’s just as good as Post-Crisis/Pre-Zero Hour reality ended up being (Post-Zero Hour was super depressing but that’s just the comics industry being made as depressing as possible for moneys, not the Crisis or even Zero Hour). The Crisis will be five episodes split over December and January, so everything will be in it. I think that Cicada’s dagger was also very important to the timeline, as well as the stuff that has happened in Arrow/Legends through the past year have helped to create this new timeline (as well as Nora’s time travel the first time), I also don’t think that Nora thought Cicada would stop the Crisis by being stopped, but that she wanted to help Team Flash and got some of Thawne’s help.

The Red Death is not and should never be a Flash villain, all the stuff that introduced him is still ongoing and is all focused on Batman. The Dark Knights are all about Bruce Wayne and his flaws, and they don’t just translate into enemies for the Green Lanterns, Clark, Diana, Arthur, Victor or Barry, it would be hard to do it with even Oliver. I think the main villain might end up being Thawne (maybe he’ll take the name Professor Zoom for fun), there still are a couple villains left that could translate into a Savitar/Thinker/Cicada, they could just bring in some replacements for the Rogues (or find a way to bring back an evil Snart and we can get some original Rogues).

Keiynan (Wally’s Actor) left the show near the beginning of S4 for no apparent reason, and he joined Legends halfway through their season last year, but he decided to leave the Arrowverse for personal reasons between seasons. I mean, yeah I saw him in the season before this one of Legends and was cool to see him in that show, but it was super weird that he wasn't in this season of Flash much.

Yeah the Red Death shouldn't be the enemy of next season, but I also don't think Thawne should be the main villain again, even though he is supposed to be the Flash's biggest bad. Although, he did say that the Negative Speed Force is immune to timeline changes, which doesn't explain how come in the first season he was completely erased by Eddie killing himself, but whatever.

So has JPK said anything about ever returning to the role?

I'm glad Crisis will be at least 5 episodes, but they're going to split them between December and January?

Oh, one last thing, is Cisco's actor done with the series?
