A single act of desperation to save his mother spirals into a universe-sized problem for Barry Allen in The Flash, Andy Muschietti's stand-alone entry built around DC's time-travelling speedster.
What is The Flash about?
Barry Allen uses his speed to reach back into his own past and stop the moment that took his mother's life. The fix works, but it costs him the world he knew: he wakes up in a reality where the metahumans he relied on never existed. Stranded there, Barry has to team up with a younger version of himself, a Batman who has aged very differently, and a Kryptonian survivor forced to build her own path in this altered timeline. Together they face a returning General Zod, and Barry has to find a way to undo the damage and get back to the world he broke without losing what mattered most about the choice he made.
About the cast
Ezra Miller plays both versions of Barry Allen opposite Sasha Calle's Kryptonian castaway, with Michael Shannon returning as General Zod. Michael Keaton, Ron Livingston, Maribel Verdú and Kiersey Clemons round out a cast that spans multiple corners of DC's screen history inside one story.
Context & significance
The Flash sits squarely in the action, adventure, fantasy and sci-fi lane, using time travel as a device to fold several eras of DC film history into a single 144-minute story. It's a bigger, stranger swing than a typical superhero sequel, leaning on alternate-timeline stakes rather than a straightforward villain-of-the-week plot.
