With Shazam! Fury of the Gods out of the way, DC is now open to hype up the release of The Flash this June. We don’t have a new trailer drop yet, but @FlashFilmNews has shared new photos of Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton’s Batmen as well as Sasha Calle’s Supergirl.

While the film is leaning heavily on Keaton’s return as Batman, a lot of Snyder fans are excited to see Ben Affleck’s version of the Dark Knight one more time. Though some were hoping that Affleck could stay on for spinoffs, the actor has said that The Flash will be his swan song for this version of Batman.
As for Sasha Calle, she’s going to be playing an altered version of Superman from The Flashpoint Paradox. In Flashpoint, Superman isn’t raised in a farm, but was instead apprehended by the US government and experimented on for years. It looks like Calle’s Supergirl is going to go through the same thing, but instead she’s captured as a young adult Kryptonian rather than raised in the prison since birth.
Then again, I’m just guessing based on what’s in the trailers.
Here’s the film synopsis:
Barry Allen uses his super speed to change the past, but his attempt to save his family creates a world without super heroes, forcing him to race for his life in order to save the future.
The Flash is set to release in theaters on June 16.
