"The Flash" cast Keiynan Lonsdale to play Wally West for its season 2. In the comics, West is known as a founding member of the Teen Titans and Flash's sidekick.

He is also the nephew of Iris West, the love interest of Barry Allen who eventually became his wife. According to Variety, Iris doesn't appear to have any siblings in CW's series, so there is a possible twist in the origin of Lonsdale's character.

Before he landed West's role, Lonsdale played Uriah in "Insurgent." Aside from being an actor, he is also a singer and a dancer.

2.     He realized that money can easily come and go when you're an actor.

He said it's just being smart with your money.

4.      He loves Los Angeles but misses Tim Tams.

The Aussie actor, who just got his apartment in March, says the he finds L.A. cool. It's like Sydney, with the beaches and everything.
