It will no doubt be interesting to explore the Flash’s background, especially his father has been framed for his mother’s murder. This hero also has an often underappreciated rogues gallery. We have the intellectual Gorilla Grodd and the maniacal Trickster (played endearingly by Mark Hamill on the CW show). Jai Courtney could even return as Captain Boomerang, having given a surprisingly good performance inSuicide Squad.
Why is ‘The Flash’ production so far out?
Varietyreported that Miller’s schedule is what pushes production to 2021, as the young star still needs to finish his work on the nextFantastic Beastsinstalment. In the meantime, however, fans have enough DC material to keep satiated.
Next year will give us bothBirds of PreyandWonder Woman 1984. The following year, we’ll get the much anticipatedThe Batman, along withBlack Adam. Current scheduling also suggests that James Gunn’sThe Suicide Squadwill also release in 2021.

With the Flash getting his first standalone movie, there might be hope that the same goes for Ray Fisher’s Cyborg. Perhaps that Green Lantern Corps. movie is still a possibility. DC’s course correction and the history of these characters certainly prove potential.
With filming planned for 2021, it’s safe to guess that Barry Allen will be speeding his way into theatres in 2022.
