The Flash will hit theaters inJune 2023. It will be one of the last productions of the old management, beforeJames GunnandPeter Safrantake the reins ofDC Studios. It’s not yet clear how much of the previousDC Extended Universe, but it seems that there won’t be a recasting of all the characters, so it’s likely that something will survive the revolution. The case in question, however, is particularly delicate. The protagonist Ezra Miller is in fact involved innumerous allegations and legal problems, so the future of him asBarry Allenis not obvious, newDC Universeapart from. Although Warner already has the script ready for the sequel, the heads of DC Studios could make different choices.
Flashpoints
The film is inspired by Flashpoint . In the comics, Barry Allen goes back in time to prevent the murder of his mother Nora , and distorts the timeline of the DC universe , finding himself in a very different present: in this timeline , he never became the Flash and Earth lives a deep crisis situation, also because many superheroes are no longer superheroes; Wonder Woman and the Amazons, for example, have conquered the United Kingdom, while Aquaman has devastated Western Europe with a tidal wave to annex it to his rule. Batman exists, but behind his mask is Thomas Wayne, not his son Bruce , who was killed during the infamous robbery. Let’s not expect, however, a faithful transposition.
Director and cast
The screenplay is by Christina Hodson ( Bumblebee , Birds of Prey ), while the direction is handled by Andrés Muschietti ( La Madre, IT ). The cast includes Ezra Miller ( Barry Allen / Flash ), Kiersey Clemons ( Iris West , historic romantic interest of Barry ), Maribel Verdú ( Nora Allen , mother of Barry ), Michael Keaton ( Tim Burton ‘s Batman ), Ben Affleck (the Batman byZack Snyder ), Sasha Calle ( Supergirl ), Ron Livingston ( Henry Allen ), Saoirse-Monica Jackson , Rudy Mancuso and Ian Loh ( Barry child).
