Summer is beginning to heat up. Judging from the final trailer for Warner Bros and DC’s The Flash, things are beginning to get intense.
Yesterday, the Official YouTube Channel for DC Comics released the final trailer for The Flash, a film mired with controversy. The new trailer finally shows off Ezra Miller’s Flash in action (The International Trailers for the film has done this, but for the US, however, it is more focused on Michael Keaton’s Batman.)
After being plagued by controversy due to Ezra Miller’s escapades, a myriad of directorial shake-ups, COVID-19, and a regime change at the studio and DC. The film made its debut at last month’s Cinema Con and it garnered a lot of praise. With praise from fans, actor Tom Cruise, film director Joe Russo, to writer Stephen King, it has been touted as The Greatest Superhero Film. IMAX and DC will also be hosting a special DC Fan First Screening in select IMAX theaters on June 12th. Ticket holders will also receive a collectible comic book.
According to James Gunn, the Flash is expected to be a major player in DC’s Onscreen Stories, ahead of the reboot. Andy Muschietti, best known for directing 2017’s “It” and its sequel helms The Flash. The script was written by Christina Hodson and produced by Michael Disco and Barbara Muschietti. The film is set to premiere on June 16th. The film stars Ezra Miller (The Flash/Barry Allen), Michael Keaton (Batman/Bruce Wayne), and Sasha Calle (Supergirl/Kara Zor-El).
Worlds collide as Barry attempts to change the past, accidentally breaking the timeline in the process. He ends up in an alternate universe, which has key differences from the main earth. Barry is trapped in a reality where General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation, and there are no meta-humans or Superheroes. This pushes Barry to try coaxing a very different Batman out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian, but one that he was looking for. To save the world and return to his future, Barry will have to race for his life but would make the ultimate sacrifice enough to reset the universe?
