The Flash is Dead. Damn.

Man, this has been a bad week for comic book movies. First Warner killed Joss Whedon’s “Wonder Woman” movie, and now David Goyer has let it be known via his blog that Warner has also killed his involvement in the long-gestating “Flash” movie. Says Goyer about the demise of the Flash: “Well, I’ve been waiting a few months to relate this news — but I am sad to say that my version of The Flash is dead at WB. The God’s honest truth is that WB and myself simply couldn’t agree on what would make for a cool Flash film.” Oh well.

Now I’m a card carrying member of the heterosexual club, but even I think Ryan Reynolds, Goyer’s choice for the Flash, would have made a badass scarlet speedster. The dude is ripped and that costume would have looked pretty convincing on him. (Urgh, I feel so gay…)


Ryan Reynolds as the Flash — no more.
