There are two Barry Allen.
The Flash’s debut trailer has arrived, taking us on a voyage with the Scarlet Speedster through the DC Multiverse. One of the last DC films created before James Gunn and Peter Safran took over as co-heads of DC Studios and started reorganizing the DC Extended Universe is the film, which stars Ezra Miller as the titular hero.
The new teaser, which was unveiled during the Super Bowl, summarises the major themes of Miller’s upcoming—and possibly final—adventure as The Flash. Barry Allen uses his super-speed abilities to go back in time to save his mother, who was killed while he was only a young boy. Barry accidentally alters the timeline and ends himself in various universes where he can’t distinguish between friends and enemies. Unfortunately, time travel is risky.
The narrative is based on the adored Flashpoint comics’ plot, which drastically reorganized the DC universe. The Flash will enable DC Studios to start over with a clean slate and only move ahead with the characters that suit the “Gods and Monster” plot, as Gunn and Safran just stated. Although they are soft-rebooting the universe, Gunn has lauded the upcoming film and promised fans it will be an amazing cinematic experience. He also emphasized how it is still a crucial piece of superhero filmmaking.
Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton play alternate iterations of Batman in The Flash. In Batgirl, the first live-action movie starring the adored heroine, Keaton would also play the Dark Knight. Sadly, the project was abandoned during the Warner Bros. Discovery merger. Keaton was set to play a retired Bruce Wayne in the Batman Beyond movie adaptation, but that project was also scrapped. Keaton and Affleck are not anticipated to reappear in separate projects based on what is known about the upcoming movies and television shows set in the DC Universe. It’s also too early to tell if Miller will continue to play Scarlett Speedster in the DC Universe, especially given that the actor has recently developed problems that have cost Warner Bros. Discovery a lot of money to try and control.
Journey to Theaters for The Flash
2014 saw Miller join the DC Extended Universe and the announcement of The Flash’s solo film. Before starring in 2017’s Justice League, Miller appeared in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad as the Scarlet Speedster. Since then, a lot has happened, and The Flash is currently in limbo while Safran and Gunn finish their 10-year storyline that will tie together movies, TV shows, and even video games in the new DC Universe. Although nothing has been officially announced, Miller’s continued involvement in the DC Universe will likely depend on how well The Flash does at the box office.
The screenplay for The Flash was written by Christina Hodson of Bumblebee, and it is directed by Andy Muschietti. In addition, Kiersey Clemons plays Iris West, Maribel Verd plays Nora Allen, and Ron Livingston takes Billy Crudup’s place as Barry’s father after his debut in Justice League as Henry Allen. Supergirl is also represented by Sasha Calle. Saoirse-Monica Jackson and Rudy Mancuso, two prominent social media users, have unspecified roles in the film.
