Grant Gustin as The Flash / Credit: Sky

With The Flash coming to UK television tonight, we've decided to take a look at lead actor Grant Gustin who has stepped into the role of the supercharged superhero Barry Allen.

1) He played a dastardly member of the Dalton Academy Warblers in Glee, Sebastian Smythe, showing off his pipes with a rendition of The Wanted's 'Glad You Came' amongst others.

2) His first role was in a direct-to-DVD exercise video called Kid Fitness Jungle Adventure Exercise Video, as a 'Club Fit Kid'.

3) He has a very close relationship with rumoured girlfriend 'Hannah' - one of the backing dancers for Beyoncé and Jay-Z's On The Run Tour.

4) He shamed Chick-fil-A publicly through Twitter when they confirmed their anti-gay stance, telling them their "food is not good enough to take from a bunch of ass holes."

5) He has a lot of love for Jason Mraz, and says that every time he hears a Mraz song it makes him feel happy.

6) The worst injury he's ever had is when he fell of a bike and broke his arm - let's hope filming The Flash doesn't make this answer change anytime soon!

7) One celebrity he met which left him starstruck was Chris Paul of LA Clippers fame.

The Flash premieres in the UK on Sky 1 HD tonight at 8pm.
