The Flash movie has finally got an official release date despite troubling behaviour from the film’s star Ezra Miller. The film has been moved by a week. Warner Bros. Pictures will now release The Flash on June 16, 2023, after being originally scheduled for release on June 23. The Flash will be competing next Father’s Day weekend with the original Pixar movie Elemental and the R-rated Jennifer Lawrence film No Hard Feelings.
Audience testing for The Flash was highly positive, with one non-studio watcher telling that the DC Extended Universe film is ‘Spider-Man: No Way Home good’ with its multiverse storylines as well as cameos by Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck as Batman.
Starring Miller in lead, the superhero film follows The Flash who travels through time to prevent the murder of his mother but unwittingly causes changes that result in the creation of a multiverse. Ezra Miller stars as Barry Allen aka The Flash in the feature. The Flash also stars Michael Keaton, back as Batman for the first time since 1992, as well as Ben Affleck, also playing a version of Batman. It will also introduce Sasha Calle as Supergirl.
Star Miller has been at the centre of various controversies this year which culminated in the actor apologizing on Aug. 15, 2022, and in a statement, saying they were seeking help for mental health issues. Miller has long been attached to the film after being cast as The Flash in 2014. He first had a cameo in Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice and had a lead role in Justice League.
