This article is about the narrative technique. For other uses, see Flash Forward (disambiguation)

A flashforward (also sometimes known as flash-forward or flash-ahead) in a narrative occurs when one or more scenes representing an event expected, projected or imagined to occur at a time later than the present depiction. Although the flashforward technique is used less frequently than its reverse, the flashback, it is often useful for defining the futuristic structure of science fiction stories, or for depicting the ambitions of a character.
