Ezra Miller is reprising his part in the flick as the Barry Allen from Batman five Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League , and he'll be joined onscreen by Sasha Calle as Supergirl and at least two other versions of Batman from DC past – notably Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton. How can this be? Well, all signs bespeak to The Flash being the DCEU's first big screen exploration of the concept of DC's multiverse, in all likelihood using the Flashpoint story from the comics, in which Barry attempts to change history by preventing his mother's murder and thus creating an alternate timeline, as its jumping off point.

For Keaton, one of the well-nigh love Batman actors of all time, this will mark three decades between appearances as Bruce Wayne when The Wink rolls out. The player originally starred in two Batman movies for managing director Tim Burton before moving on to other projects – more than recently joining the MCU equally Spider-Man: Homecoming villain Vulture – just he told reporter Kevin McCarthy that putting on the cape and cowl and stepping up as Batman again for Andy Muschietti's forthcoming DCEU multiverse offering was like "riding a bike" and he seemed to appreciate that the new movie is very much steeped in comic book blockbuster history.

"Memories came flashing back – no pun intended – came flooding dorsum," he said. "They did, merely as I outset thinking about what a take chances Tim [Burton] took and everybody else involved, actually."

The Birdman actor also teased his first scene in The Flash , which volition no doubt excite DC fans who have longed for him to return to the role for years.

"[It was] weirdly and ironically easy," Keaton told Collider . "A little chip emotional. Simply a blitz of memories. Without giving anything away, which I tin't, basically the beginning shot, non of the entire moving-picture show but permit's say the introduction [of Batman], is and then good that when we walked on and started talking near a couple of shots and the angles, I went 'whoa, this is big. This is nifty.' I don't even mean for me. Only the imagery, it's peachy. And reminiscent, to some degree, of Tim Burton."

While a load of set photos from The Flash take surfaced in recent months, including looks at Keaton as Bruce Wayne, we accept yet to go a expect at the actor in the familiar Batman accommodate. However, concept fine art revealed final year indicated that Keaton volition habiliment a suit that is almost identical to the one he wore in the Burton Batman flicks. Muschietti confirmed that further with a teasing photograph showing off a familiar Bat logo on a black background that hinted at other DC connections in the movie, equally well.
