Despite the long road to completion, things are finally rounding the final turn into The Flash's release. Andy Muschietti directs DC's big trip into the multiverse when it races into theaters on June 16th.
For those wondering if Miller will continue on as The Flash after the movie, DC's Peter Safran offered an update recently. "Ezra is completely committed to their recovery," Safran explained. "And we are fully supportive of that journey that they're on right now. When the time is right, when they feel like they're ready to have the discussion, we'll all figure out what the best path forward is. But right now, they are completely focused on their recovery. And in our conversations with them over the last couple of months, it feels like they're making enormous progress."
