Who Should Play "The Flash"

this is just a list of "what if's".....don't want anyone throwing a hissy fit!!

I didn't see this posted anywhere yet so here we go.



Apparrently, my first comic book interest "The Flash" is nearing a greenlight according to this news:

Along with announcing Sherlock Holmes sequel Start period & when to expect Superman's return, Warner Bros. chairman announces that a "Flash" movie, with DC Entertainment is getting closer to getting the Go-Ahead. Check it Out!

DC Entertainment, distributed by Warner Bros., has a lot on their plate with Green Lantern currently filming, Third Untitled Batman movie scripting, a Superman: Man of Steel reboot expected for 2012 holiday season, and Jonah Hex hitting theaters in a few weeks.

Warner Bros. chairman and CEO Barry Meyer says that DC Comics characters are key parts of Warner's future, and along with announcing a mid-December 2011 release for the Sherlock Holmes sequel, he includes that

they are getting close to giving the go-ahead for a movie about the Scarlet Speedster, DC Comics superhero "Flash."

Barry Meyer includes that films featuring Wonder Woman, Aquaman and Mad magazine characters are also in development, as mentioned before. Past rumors for the speedster, say that writer/producer Greg Berlanti is strongly being considered to direct the movie adaption.

DCMF:: I'm most curios at how they plan on making this movie interesting, more than who they actually cast. Those unfamiliar with Flash, several other individuals in the DC Universe, have used the name, and these have lived either on other parallel worlds, or in the future. Jay Garrick, Barry Allen and Wally West are the best-known exemplars of the identity. And with each character claiming the identity has had different origins concluding in gaining super strengths & speed(obviously).

Casting being one of the important things to make this film work, I personally felt Ryan Reynolds, whose playing Hal Jordan(Green Lantern), would make a greater Flash. What do you think?

So let the speculation on which Flash character should be brought to the big screen and what actor should play him begin!

Should have called this "The DC Comics Thread". Superman, Aquaman, Wonder Woman and MAD movies are also being developed.

All I know is Olivia Munn better get the role for Wonder Woman! Got Em!!

[PS3-Playb3yond]

Wish it would just get the green light already, I'm sure the process will go much faster after that.

Can't wait 'til they get to the casting part of this movie.

They have to wait for Ryan Reynolds to finish filming Green Lantern so he can sign on to be the Flash.

Haha. I also thought Reynolds would have been great for playing Wally West. I wonder which version of Flash they will bring to he screen; there has already been a Barry Allen movie.

A smoking hot, vacuous windbag. She looks awesome in a Wonder Woman costume.

Reynolds would have been a better fit for the Flash, but I have no problem with him as Green Lantern.

If he does get the coveted role, that would potentially put him in 3 comic book movies (Green Lantern, rumored Dead Pool and Flash).

But a Justice League movie would be very difficult if that ever happens! I've seen that some are suggesting Matthew Fox.

I like Matthew Fox and now that Lost is done he would jump all over that.

I think he would be good but I still vote for Michael Rosenbaum.

[walter stark]

i think the suggestion of Neil Patrick Harris is a good one as he's the right build for hte role and has that funny aspect and i think would be good

They should just have Ryan Reynolds Be Wonder Woman and the next Superman as well. Then when they decide on a justice league, they got Bale for Batman and Reynolds for every other face in that movie. lol

The Flash never really held a lot of interest for me as a kid. I had some of the comic books, even from the 60's but I just feel that there's not enough to the guy or his 'powers' that could make an interesting script. Realistically, all they'd have to do is CG him running fast in a blur so I can't see anything groundbreaking or even cool about doing a film on him. Maybe I'm wrong... maybe in the last 20 years or so, since I haven't read comic books at all in that time, the Flash became much more than he was. If so... cool!

My favorite superhero growing up. I hope they do it justice, and use Barry Allen--not Wally West.
