Having briefly cameoed in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad, The Flash has finally had his big debut in Justice League.
Seen as the comic relief of the superhero team, the speedster is set for his own solo movie in a few years called Flashpoint.
Based on the comic book storyline, this time travel tale sees The Flash accidentally create an alternate reality where Bruce Wayne died as a boy, while his father (played by Jeffrey Dean Morgan) becomes Batman and his mother, the Joker. The storyline was even teased in Batman v Superman, when The Flash appeared from the future to Bruce Wayne.

Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, he said: “What fans understand when they hear Flashpoint would be almost like hearing a word like Crisis.
“We start to understand that our precious DC universe will inevitably be torn asunder to an endless, headache-inducing fabric of multiversality.
“The DC Hyper-Extended Multiverse, as I plan to call it. Quote me!”
On Batman’s involvement he added: “There’s elements in it that we’re going to be playing into that we couldn’t do anywhere else. The scale of it, the Batman story of it all.”
Flashpoint has already been adapted as an animated movie
Since Morgan played Thomas Wayne in Batman v Superman, it’s assumed he will take up the role as an alternate Batman.
Flashpoint is set for released in 2020.
