While we're not totally sure if a race actually happens in World's Finest, the story follows Supergirl joining forces with a lightning-fast-and super dreamy-hero, The Flash ( Grant Gustin), to take out two villains. ![]() The Supergirl / The Flash crossover poster was essentially a parody of the iconic Superman #199 cover from DC Comics, which featured Superman and The Flash set to race to see who the fastest man on the planet truly is. Unfortunately, it's only a brief tease of footage, but hopefully we'll see a full trailer very soon. Just one week after the first poster and plot details surfaced, DC Entertainment has released the first trailer for this special episode, along with new photos, showing Barry and Kara coming face to face for the first time. Now all we need is for Robert Pattinson’s dark knight to turn up, and it could be time to really get this superhero party started.In just a few weeks, the superhero meeting everyone has been waiting for will finally arrive, when Barry Allen ( Grant Gustin) finds himself in Kara Zor-El's ( Melissa Benoist) National City in The Flash and Supergirl crossover episode, World's Finest, airing Monday, March 28. If the hype turns out to be true, The Flash may just present a much-needed blueprint for how to represent Batman (Batmen?) in ensemble comic book movies, a feat that nobody has ever really successfully achieved before (with the possible exception of Snyder’s director’s cut of Justice League). There are other reasons to be cheerful here. Perhaps that skulking, meat-headed guy with the guns from Dawn of Justice was just a bad Bruce Wayne from another universe where everything’s back to front and audiences love to turn up in their gazillions to watch really terrible movies. Rumour is this will be Batfleck’s final turn in the cape and cowl, but if he’s well received – well there’s no reason that has to be set in stone. Moreover, if the new Supergirl does end up wowing audiences, or Michael Shannon’s General Zod gets the opportunity to shake the DC foundations that he should have received a decade ago, there is ample opportunity to bring them back in future episodes. The wonderful thing about multiverse movies is that they are primed and ready to explain away all kinds of superhero universe bad planning (of which there has been a lot at DC since 2013’s Man of Steel ushered in the Zack Snyder era) as simply the result of clashing alternate timelines. Sasha Calle is awesome - I want to see more of her! /2DYhSKMfyI- Jenna Busch April 26, 2023 I didn't realize how much I needed Keaton's Batman in my life again. #TheFlash is pretty great, and it makes sense to me now why DC didn't shelve this one. It’s likely there will be ramifications for DC that go way beyond what we’ve yet seen in advance publicity. Michael Keaton will return to the role of the caped crusader, and so will Ben Affleck, while Sasha Calle is reportedly a revelation as Kara Zor-El/Supergirl.Ī new trailer, released this week with impeccable timing, shows us that the new film will see Allen “breaking the universe” and changing the past. While Muschietti’s film is likely to cherry-pick from its source material, we do know that Miller will play two versions of The Flash (in the comics, the second Flash was the Reverse-Flash: in the film it will be a Flash from an alternate timeline). The Flash is loosely based on the seminal Flashpoint comic book run, which saw Barry Allen waking up in an alternate reality where Superman is a frightened weakling, Batman is Thomas Wayne (Bruce’s dad) and the Amazons and Atlanteans are destructive forces who seem to be engaged in perpetual war. ![]() Nerds will lose their minds at the ending. Tons of Ezra Miller being zany and time paradox stuff. Really nailed what reading a 5-issue crossover comic book is like. THE FLASH: far more madcap than I expected.
