The Flash sees the return of Michael Keaton to the role of Batman after an over 30-year absence. Brand new concept art for the film shows off alternate Batsuit designs that could have appeared in the film.
The Flash has served to be controversial among many fans. However, one thing that was sure to bring a smile to the face of even the most cynical DC Comics fan was seeing the lineup of batsuits worn by Michael Keaton’s Batman, even if he only wore the classic costume for the duration of the film.
New concept art of alternate batsuits designed by comic book artist Joe Quinones has been released. While he only cited Kenner’s Batman action figure as inspiration, the designs have clear influences from Bob Kane’s original designs to Azrael’s Knightfall costume. And these are only the ones closest to those in the films. The full designs can be seen below:
The Flash’s DC Universe future
Warner Bros. Discovery already has a script for a potential sequel to The Flash, written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, the man behind the two Aquaman movies starring Jason Momoa. However, James Gunn and Peter Safran did not discuss the Flash sequel during their DC Universe presentation.
Directed by Andy Muschietti from a script written by Birds of Prey scribe Christina Hodson, The Flash is inspired by the Flashpoint comic book storyline, which followed Barry Allen as he navigated an altered DC Universe. Written by Geoff Johns and penciled by Andy Kuber, Flashpoint radically altered the status of the DC Comics universe and led to the launch of the New 52 titles.
In addition to Ezra Miller, The Flash also features Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck as two separate versions of Batman, Ron Livingston as Henry Allen, Maribel Verdú as Nora Allen, Kiersey Clemons as Iris West, Michael Shannon as General Zod, Antje Traue as Faora-Ul and Sasha Calle as Supergirl.
