C. Thomas Howell To Voice Reverse-Flash In JUSTICE LEAGE: THE FLASHPOINT PARADOX
Professor Zoom is the main baddie of Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox and he'll be voiced by C. Thomas Howell (The Outsiders, Red Dawn). The film will be directed by Jay Oliva (Batman: The Dark Knight Returns, Young Justice).
For those that have read the main issues of 2011's DC Comics crossover event Flashpoint (from Geoff Johns and Andy Kubert), it should come as no surprise that the main villain of Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox will be Eobard Thawne aka Reverse-Flash bka Professor Zoom. Voicing the Flash villain will be actor C. Thomas Howell. Directing the forthcoming Warner Bros. direct-to-video venture will be Jay Oliva who's coming off a strong performance on The Dark Knight Returns, Part 2. Oliva's also previously directed 15 episodes of Young Justice.

When time travel allows a past wrong to be righted for The Flash and his family, the ripples of the event prove disastrous as a fractured, alternate reality now exists where a Justice League never formed, and even Superman is nowhere to be found. Teaming with a grittier, more violent Dark Knight and Cyborg, Flash races to restore the continuity of his original timeline while this new world is ravaged by a fierce war between Wonder Woman's Amazons and Aquaman’s Atlanteans. With breath taking action and an all-star voice cast, it's a bold, emotional vision that will forever change the landscape of the DC Universe.
