The Flash: What Happened To Jesse Quick & Will She Return – Screen Rant

Posted: March 22, 2020 at 1:48 am

Jesse Quick was a surprise hit with fans of The Flash, but her current status in the Arrowverse doesnt look good. As Harry Wellss daughter, Jesse Wells spent a good amount of season 2 mostly being a character who played off of Wally West, with the two of them becoming a couple for a little while. This all changed when she was exposed to the Speed Force, officially becoming the Arrowverses version of Jesse Quick.The character appears to have been erased from the Arrowverse post-Crisis is it possible for Jesse Quick to return onThe Flash?

While she was never a pivotal figure in the show, Jesse appeared in a fair number of episodes in seasons 3 and 4 as Jesse Quick, usually to assist with Barry getting out of a particular jam or trying to take a more proactive role in fighting the main villains. She filled the role of the main speedster on Earth-2 off-screen and strong ally to the team on-screen, making her a particular fan-favorite.

Inthe season 8 premiere of Arrow,the Anti-Monitor destroyed Earth-2, presumably killing Jesse Quick and Harry Wells. Even if they had been off-world at the time, the Anti-matter wave consumed the entirety of the multiverse except for the Vanishing Point during Crisis on Infinite Earths, meaning that Jesse was certainly dead by then. After Oliver and the Paragons manage to recreate the multiverse, Cisco confirms in the mid-season premiere of The Flash that Harry and Jesse died and didnt come back on Earth-Prime.

Cisco based his knowledge of Harry and Jesses death on the collapsing of the multiverse, but its hard to trust Cisco when viewers know theres still a multiverse. Even if shes not on Earth-Prime (and Cisco hadnt thoroughly explored Earth-Prime at that time), a version of her might still be out there somewhere in the new multiverse.

While its happening in a much different way, The Flash has already confirmed that Harry Wells managed to survive, with every version of Wells currently living in Nashs mind. This means that they might still be able to deal with Jesses off-screen death. While she doesnt have a doppelgngers brain to live in, this is a sign that the writers arent completely committed to killing off these characters. Theres no confirmation from a more authoritative source that there wasnt a version of Jesse Wells created in the new multiverse, so the door is left open just a crack for her potential return.

Right now, the obvious assumption is that Jesse died in the destruction of Earth-2, but theres always the chance for her to return. With actress Violett Beane being a regular on God Friended Me, her lack of availability has written her out of the story for a while. By not showing Jesse Quicks death and bringing back Harry Wells, The Flashhas left just enough doubt about her death that they could bring her back if ever the right opportunity presented itself.
