Bio
On June 9 2010 Green Lantern and Arrow writers Greg Berlanti, Michael Green and Marc Guggenheim were hired to pen a treatment of the film. The Flash script will apparently be based off of the recent run by DC's Chief Creative Officer Geoff Johns, and will feature Barry Allen as the first film incarnation of the Flash.[citation needed] In June 2014 it was hinted that the film would release in late 2017 and would be a team-up film also including Green Lantern.[citation needed] On October 5, 2015, it was reported that Seth Grahame-Smith is in negotiations to direct the film.[4] However, on April 29th, 2016, it was announced that Grahame-Smith had exited the project due to creative differences.[5] Rick Famuyiwa was reported in June 2016 to direct the film.[6] Filming will start in January 2017 in London, England.[7] On October 31, 2016, The Hollywood Reporter has reported that Famuyiwa has left the film due to creative differences.[8] On January 25, 2017, Variety reported that Joby Harold will rewrite the script for the film.[2] On May 17, 2017, Billy Crudup was reported to have dropped out of the film as Henry Allen,[9] though this was later refuted by Warner Bros.[10] At 2017 San Diego Comic Con, it was revealed that the film will adapt the "Flashpoint" storyline and it will also be titled "Flashpoint".
