Warner Bros. and DC Studios’ tentpole summer release, “The Flash,” finally hits theaters this weekend, but the superhero movie had been beset by delays and off-screen controversie…
“The Flash” was initially revealed back in October 2014 as part of the inaugural DC Universe slate. It received a 2018 release date, alongside eventual releases like “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice,” “Suicide Squad,” “Wonder Woman,” “Aquaman” and “Shazam.” However, parts of that plan didn’t come to fruition. Standalone “Cyborg” and “Green Lantern” movies were scrapped, and a two-part “Justice League” movie by Zack Snyder became one film.
Miller, who uses they/them pronouns, first debuted as the Flash in a cameo in 2016’s “Batman v Superman” and “Suicide Squad,” before joining the cast of “Justice League” in 2017.

Finally, Christina Hodson was confirmed as the writer with Andy Muschietti as director in November 2019. After their hiring, “The Flash” got a July 2022 release date and was slated for pre-production in January 2020. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the strain on the visual effects industry, it was first delayed to November 2022 and then, finally, got its June 2023 release date. Production began in April 2021 and wrapped in October.
Behind the scenes, though, Miller had troubles of their own. In April 2020, they were caught on video appearing to
