THE FLASH MOVIE STARS EZRA MILLER AS BARRY ALLEN



The Flash movie stars Ezra Miller as Barry Allen, aka The Flash. Miller was originally cast as Flash in 2014 when The Flash movie was first announced. He made his DCEU debut in a cameo scene in Zack Snyder’s Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice before reprising his role in David Ayer’s Suicide Squad – both released in 2016 – and then again in 2017’s Justice League, in which his character was fully introduced. Miller will next appear as Flash in the solo Flash movie.

THE FLASH MOVIE MAY FEATURE THE JUSTICE LEAGUE



The Flash movie also stars Billy Crudup as Barry Allen’s father, Henry Allen, with Kiersey Clemons playing Barry’s love interest, Iris West. There were rumors that both actors had either dropped or been removed from the project, but that doesn’t appear to be the case. Crudup appeared in Justice League as Henry Allen and Clemons has repeatedly stated that she’s still attached to the film.

Aside from Barry’s immediate supporting cast, there are reports that Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa’s Aquaman, Ben Affleck’s Batman, and Ray Fisher’s Cyborg will all also appear in The Flash movie. For Affleck, it would mark the final Batman role in his DCEU contract, thus meaning he would need to renegotiate to appear in Matt Reeves’ The Batman. Interestingly, Jeffrey Dean Morgan has expressed interest in reprising his role as Thomas Wayne in The Flash movie, but he hasn’t been confirmed for the part.

THE FLASH MOVIE FEATURES BARRY ALLEN’S ROGUES GALLERY



The Flash movie will reportedly feature Flash’s rogues gallery, which will include the Reverse-Flash. In 2016, it was rumored that The Flash movie will feature multiple villains, which was later reaffirmed in February 2018. The most recent rumor suggests that Doctor Light will serve as The Flash movie’s big bad, with the Reverse-Flash appearing only in flashback sequences going back to Barry Allen’s birth. Captain Cold will also appear as an antagonist throughout the film. As for Caitlin Snow, she’s expected to show up at some point in the film, though it’s unclear if she will transform into Killer Frost.

THE FLASH MOVIE’S STORY IS BASED ON DC’S FLASHPOINT
