The upcoming DCU Flash movie stars Michael Keaton reprising his role as Bruce Wayne, which begs the big question – will The Flash go to Tim Burton? Batman 1989 the universe within Flash. The upcoming DCU Flash movies is an opportunity for James Gunn to officially reboot the DCU with an in-universe explanation. Keaton’s appearance with Ben Affleck (also as Batman) depends on it. However, as Michael Keaton returns to the role of Batman for the first time since then Batman returnsit doesn’t necessarily mean Burton’s film world.
Flash movie appears to be a Flash point-based story. Barry Allen tries to use the Speed Force to prevent his mother’s death, but inadvertently rewrites the timeline or travels to an entirely different reality. The world he goes to doesn’t have metahumans – but Batman does, and it’s Michael Keaton rather than Ben Affleck. Although Michael Keaton was the first live-action actor of the modern era, he has always existed in his own continuity (cancelled Batgirl despite the film). However, despite speculation that Keaton’s appearance means Ezra Miller will go to Burtonverse Gotham by default, that’s no guarantee. Flash Michael Keaton Batman canonically the same Bruce Wayne Batman 1989.
The Flash movie is the DCU’s take on The Flash
The presence of Tim Burton’s Batman Flash the film can be explained by Barry Allen’s immense but chaotic powers. The future version of Flash has gone back in time Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Zack Snyder’s version Justice League showed the character’s final moments of the film. However, the DCU’s Barry Allen is still a rookie when it comes to the Speed Force. In a desperate attempt to prevent his mother’s death, Barry Allen will make it or perish in an entirely different universe/timeline (the trailers are a bit vague here).
Either way, Barry ends up on Earth where Batman is the honorary hero Played by Michael Keaton – and that could mean Flash the film takes place in Tim Burton Batman universe. Moving Barry to a different corner of the DC Multiverse instead of putting the character in a slightly altered timeline is an interesting spin on what is already iconic. Flash point story. In the comic book saga that served as the reboot of DC Comics into the New 52, Flash’s careless use of his powers created a timeline in which a war between Wonder Woman and Aquaman came close to destroying the entire planet.
If complete Flash point An adaptation could provide some interesting moments, and the Flash’s trip from the DCU to the Burtonverse could do the same. Meanwhile, various DC animated projects covered Flash point story lineand Flash seems to change things a bit. No Aquaman or Wonder Woman to be seen. This is evident from the trailer Flash the film tells the DCU Flash point a story with its own new twist. The most obvious example of this is Sasha Calle’s supergirl, who is an inmate in a medical facility (like Superman in the comics). This makes Michael Keaton Batman Flash conundrum – if the Flash went to Tim Burton Batman universe, why is Supergirl there?
The Flash may not be going to the Burtonverse
Although the truth is that Michael Keaton’s return is very certain Batman 1989 (everything from the trailer music to the costumes are lifted directly from it), this is not Tim Burton’s Batman. Flash movie. In Flash point comics, it was Thomas Wayne, not Bruce Wayne, as Batman. Batman committed violence and killed people, instead he lost his son to a thief and Martha Wayne died. Inside Batman Flash appears Having a bit of fun, including a sly smile when Barry asks if he wants his help, are definitely not Thomas Wayne qualities. However, with Keaton still playing Bruce Wayne, it could be a double Barry Allens-like situation. Ezra Miller’s Flash doesn’t travel to the Burtonverse, it just travels to a universe where Batman is Michael Keaton.
Michael Keaton was last seen in 1992 Batman Returns – Long before multiverses were a big screen concept, or studios even cared much about the continuity of superhero movies. Val Kilmer and George Clooney entered the franchise as the same Batman. However, it’s possible that each will play a different Batman, and that multiple Kilmers, Clooneys, and Keatons will exist in the DC multiverse of Bruce Wayne (and possibly Afflecks, Pattinsons, Bales, and even Adam Wests). Any alternate Earth could be a Michael Keaton-like Batman. Just like there There are different Flash optionsas well as Green Arrow variants in the Arrowverse, which is just one variant of Tim Burton’s Batman. Flash movie.
