The Flash is set to speed into theaters this June. Ahead of the release of a brand new trailer next week, Warner Bros. has dropped a TV spot gives fans their best look yet at the Scarlet Speedster’s upgraded suit.
The first trailer for The Flash was met with positive reactions when it dropped earlier this year. As the release date zooms ever-closer and the film set to debut next week at Cinemacon, fans have been awaiting any new look they can get. While the extended TV spot mostly includes footage fans have already seen, fresh clips show off the titular hero’s new suit in action. The full TV spot can be seen below:
Despite positive thoughts from both in and outside of the industry, The Flash remains controversial among fans. Much of this stems from Ezra Miller’s troubles this past year, leading up to the film’s release. While their future as The Flash still seems to be undecided at DC Studios, many fans have already sworn off the film. Only time will tell if this will doom The Flash or if the film will speed its way to the top of the box office.
The Flash’s DC Universe future
Warner Bros. Discovery already has a script for a potential sequel to The Flash, written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, the man behind the two Aquaman movies starring Jason Momoa. However, James Gunn and Peter Safran did not discuss the Flash sequel during their DC Universe presentation.
Directed by Andy Muschietti from a script written by Birds of Prey scribe Christina Hodson, The Flash is inspired by the Flashpoint comic book storyline, which followed Barry Allen as he navigated an altered DC Universe. Written by Geoff Johns and penciled by Andy Kuber, Flashpoint radically altered the status of the DC Comics universe and led to the launch of the New 52 titles.
In addition to Ezra Miller, The Flash also features Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck as two separate versions of Batman, Ron Livingston as Henry Allen, Maribel Verdú as Nora Allen, Kiersey Clemons as Iris West, Michael Shannon as General Zod, Antje Traue as Faora-Ul and Sasha Calle as Supergirl. Saoirse-Monica Jackson, Rudy Mancuso and Luke Brandon Field are also on board in undisclosed roles.
