The Flash movie: Release date, plot details, trailers, cast & more
Travelling back in time to prevent his mother's murder â for which his father was falsely imprisoned, as revealed in Zack Snyder's Justice League â Barry Allen/ The Flash (Ezra Miller) ends up causing a butterfly effect and venturing into alternate dimensions across the multiverse. That's how The Flash will involve at least two returning versions of Batman, played by Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton. Loosely draws from the Flashpoint comic book arc. The Flash is expected to be at the centre of Warner Bros.' revamped strategy to create a shared multiverse for its DC Comics movies and TV shows.

âTell me something, you can go anywhere. Another timeline, another universe, so why do you want to stay and fight to save this one?â Michael Keatonâs Batman asks Barry in the opening moments of the trailer. Barry responds, âBecause this is the one where my mom lives. Iâm not gonna lose her again.â
Barry explains that âtime has a pattern that it canât help reliving. Different people, different worlds, drawn to each other like magnets.â He ends up meeting another version of himself.
The Flash Movie?
While rolling out the first plans for the next chapter of DC Studios on January 31, DC bosses James Gunn and Peter Safran revealed whatâs going on with Ezra, who identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, and The Flash movie. James called The Flash âprobably one of the greatest superhero movies ever made,â according to THR.
Despite ongoing legal troubles, James included Ezra when he said that âthere is nothing that prohibitsâ them from reprising their role as The Flash in future DCU projects. âEzra is completely committed to their recovery. We are fully supportive of that journey they are on right now,â Peter noted. âWhen the time is right, when they are ready to have that discussion, we will all figure out what the best path forward. But right now, they are completely focused on their recovery. And in our conversation with them, in the last couple of months, it feels like they are making enormous progress.â
The Flash will come out in cinemas on 16th June 2023, a week earlier than its previously announced 23rd June 2023 release date.
The release date has likely been pushed forward by a week to avoid Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, which finally announced that it will premiere on 30th June.
The film was originally slated to premiere in cinemas in November 2022.
The movie was then brought forward to 3rd June 2022 as part of Warner Bros' response to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, before being delayed again by a year.
After months of delays and pre-production, The Flash finally began filming on 26th April 2021.
Fans have already had to wait a very long time to see a standalone film, with Miller having already signed on as long ago as 2014 â so by the time we see the movie, itâll be almost a decade since the star agreed to play the character. Talk about patience!
Of course in that time the character has appeared in other DC films, but it can surely only be good news that heâs finally getting his own movie.
While the film is largely still a mystery, we do know that it will be adapting the popular Flashpoint comic storyline, arguably one of the most beloved and well-known storylines for the character. In large part due to the way it completely flipped the DC universe on its head.
The Flashpoint timeline is a universe in which the world has been torn apart due to a war between Atlantis and Themyscira. When Barry Allen wakes up in this timeline, he is without his powers and has some memory loss but still retains some memory of the world he used to know.
