While Warner Bros. executives may be in high spirits aboutThe Flash’s potential as one of this summer’s most anticipated blockbusters, it appears Ezra Miller’s solo superhero film is still due for some minor reshoots before it’s ready for movie theaters.The Flashis scheduled to premiere in June 2023, after a slight shift to avoid competition withIndiana Jones 5.Although Miller’s legal controversies at one point seemed like they could derail the movie, the landscape has changed a bit over the last couple of months. Last week,Miller pled guilty in the Vermont burglary casethey got themselves into last year, and consideringThe Flashstar won’t be serving any jail time, it looks like they’ll have room for filming more footage.RELATED:DC: 13 Most Iconic Female Villains In The ComicsNews ofThe Flashreshoots comes courtesy of@bigscreenleakson Twitter, with the account noting that some filming for the movie will take place within January. However, this shouldn’t worry fans, as these reshoots are believed to consist of minor tweaks desired by director Andy Muschietti. Indeed, according to the same source, whatever footageThe Flashis getting ready to change won’t alter the film’s main plot, which tested positively in private screenings up to this stage.
Currently, fans ofThe Flashare on hold until the Super Bowl, when the movie will release its first trailer. The preview will be key to building hype for the movie, which has little added value coming from the rest of the DC Universe. It is currently unclear whether Miller will participate in this reshoot process.
As James Gunn continues making changes at DC,Miller’s role asThe Flashremains a point of contention, with the latest rumors suggesting that Warner Bros. could be open to allowing the actor to stay if the movie proves to be a hit, especially now that their outlandish behavior has stopped producing negative headlines. That said, any decisions regardingThe Flash’s future also have the potential of triggering fan outrage since a beloved actor like Henry Cavill was already cut from DC’s roster, despite overwhelming support for his comeback.
It’s good to keep in mind that, no matter how good or popularThe Flashis, having reshoots occur at this stage could cause this $200 million project to become more expensive, which in turn could jeopardize its profitability, something that the studio is probably fully aware ofthanks to theBlack Adam’s shaky financials.
