‘The Flash’ Has An Unexpected Super Cameo By A Superstar Actor

Tatiana Siegel “The Flash” is almost here, and the rollout has been anything but typical.  With just 13 days to go before the film’s June 16 release, titular star Ezra Miller has done no press and will make a low-profile appearance at the Los Angeles premiere on June 12, only posing for photos rather than doing interviews. The film’s director, Andy Muschietti, and cast members Ben Affleck, Sasha Calle and Michael Shannon, as well as fellow DC Universe superhero Jason Momoa, will also hit the red carpet that will be missing the standard press gauntlet. Typically, the star of a $190 million tentpole will promote the film in interviews across print, TV and oftentimes podcasts spanning multiple continents. (Harrison Ford has been ubiquitous in the run-up to the June 30 bow of “Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny,” including a high-profile showing at the Cannes Film Festival.)

Netflix, Prime Video, Max, Paramount+, Hulu, Peacock and Disney+ throughout the month of June, so not only is there a little something for everyone, there’s enough to get you through those days when it’s just to hot to step outside.Check out our list of some of the best new movies to stream in June 2023 below.June 1 – MaxAs we near Quentin Tarantino’s tenth and final film (“The Movie Critic”), the debate will once again rage over which of QT’s movies is the very best. And a strong case could be made for “Jackie Brown.” For his much-anticipated follow-up to the zeitgeist-capturing (and Oscar-winning) “Pulp Fiction,” Tarantino chose an adaptation of Elmore Leonard’s 1992 novel “Rum Punch.” (It was his first and only movie based on a preexisting source.) Tarantino went to casting some of his heroes in the lead roles – Pam Grier, who made a name for herself starring in low-budget exploitation films for Roger Corman, plays the title role; and Robert Forster, who appeared in cult favorites like “Alligator” and Disney’s misbegotten “The Black Hole.” It’s a twisty crime movie, for sure, with outstanding performers in supporting parts (Bridget Fonda, Robert De Niro, Michael Keaton and Samuel L.

In just two weeks, Andy Muschietti‘s “The Flash” dashes into theaters, ushering in the multiverse into the DCEU. The synopsis for the film? After Ezra Miller‘s Barry Allen goes back in time in an attempt to save his parents from getting murdered, he changes the present into one where superheroes he knows no longer exist.

Last year, the movie talk of the summer was Ezra Miller‘s erratic behavior and how it potentially threatened the theatrical release of Andy Muschietti‘s “The Flash. But EW reports that, according to Muschietti and his sister, Barbara Muschietti, the threat of the blockbuster being shelved was never legitimate.

With Ezra Miller being involved in so many personal controversies, many believed that The Flash could be abandoned completely. However, director Andy Muschietti and producer Barbara Muschietti are dispelling the rumors and claim that the film was never in danger.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director “The Flash” producer Barbara Muchietti confirmed to Entertainment Weekly that the Warner Bros. comic book tentpole was never in jeopardy of being shelved amid reports of star Ezra Miller’s legal troubles and alleged abuse. Some reports last year claimed otherwise, with rumors circulating that “The Flash” would be shelved for tax incentive purposes a la “Batgirl” given the controversies surrounding Miller. When asked if there was a legitimate fear of the movie being canceled, Barbara Muschietti said, “Not at all. No. That was never real.” “The Flash” is directed by Barbara’s brother, Andy Muschietti. The filmmaker recently disclosed on “The Discourse” podcast that he has no intentions of re-casting Miller should “The Flash” team return for a potential sequel.

Ezra Miller is the star of Warner Brothers’ upcoming The Flash movie and they’ve been in the middle of lots of controversies over the past couple years that have made the film a tricky subject for the studio.

Zack Sharf Digital News Director Ezra Miller will continue being the Flash as long as director Andy Muschietti is involved in the Warner Bros. superhero franchise. During an interview on “The Discourse” podcast, Muschietti said he has no plans to recast Miller despite the actor’s history of legal troubles and alleged abuse. “If [a sequel] happens, yes,” Muschietti said about having Miller back as the Flash. “I don’t think there’s anyone that can play that character as well as they did. The other depictions of the character are great, but this particular vision of the character, they just excelled in doing it. And, as you said, the two Barrys — it feels like a character that was made for them.”

As we approach the long-awaited release of “The Flash,” the discussion about Ezra Miller and their abuse allegations and legal issues has not really died down. Though people are praising Miller’s performance in the film, there are still plenty of folks wondering if the actor is going to stay in the lead role if the character continues in the DCU under James Gunn and Peter Safran.

DCEU fans already know from the trailers that Andy Muschietti‘s “The Flash” has a bunch of cameos from previous DC movies.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large Let’s travel back to the summer of 1989. I’m 15 years old and have just put two large movie posters on my wall: One for Tim Burton’s game-changing take on “Batman,” starring Michael Keaton, and the other for “UHF,” the theatrical comedy debut for the one and only “Weird Al” Yankovic. It’s now 2023. Keaton is back as Batman in next month’s “The Flash.” And Weird Al (always Weird Al, not just Al Yankovic!) is the front-runner for this year’s TV movie Emmy, thanks to the Roku Channel parody biopic “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.” “1989 is back again! It’s all cyclical,” Yankovic says in his signature cheery, upbeat tone. Tell my 15-year-old self that one day he’ll be recording a podcast with Weird Al, and first he’d say, “what’s a podcast?” But after explaining that it’s essentially a radio show, my 15-year-old self would lose his mind. And ask about 2023’s flying cars. Sorry kid.

I hope I can work with him again soon.” “He is a massive Superman fan. A comic book fanatic,” Muschetti added.
