Worlds collide when The Flash races into theaters — and the DC multiverse — on June 16th. Warner Bros. Pictures already dropped the first trailer and an action-packed Super Bowl spot during Sunday’s big game, and now we have character posters featuring speedster Barry Allen (Ezra Miller), the veteran costumed crime fighter Batman (Michael Keaton), and the Kryptonian Kara/Supergirl (Sasha Calle). This trio of the world’s finest superheroes happens to be the world’s only superheroes after Barry, the fastest man alive, taps into the Speed Force to turn back time — only to create a world without metahumans.

“It’s a ride. It’s going to be fun and exciting and there are a lot of DCcharacters in it,” producer Barbara Muschietti said during DC FanDome 2020. “Flash is the superhero of this film because he is thebridge between all of these characters and timelines. And in a way, itrestarts everything and doesn’t forget anything.”
The Flash begins in the DC Extended Universe — Barry’s home timeline — where the Scarlet Speedster saved the world with Bruce Wayne/Batman (Ben Affleck) as a member of the Justice League. Director Andy Muschietti teased a trip through the multiverse at Brazil’s CCXP, telling the convention crowd that The Flash “will take you to a place where the DC Universe hasn’t gone before.”
The official logline reads: “Worlds collide in The Flash when Barry uses his superpowers totravel back in time in order to change the events of the past. But whenhis attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barrybecomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned,threatening annihilation, and there are no Super Heroes to turn to. Thatis, unless Barry can coax a very different Batman out of retirement andrescue an imprisoned Kryptonian… albeit not the one he’s looking for.Ultimately, to save the world that he is in and return to the futurethat he knows, Barry’s only hope is to race for his life. But willmaking the ultimate sacrifice be enough to reset the universe?”
