CONFIRMED: Phil Lord And Chris Miller Developing THE FLASH Movie For Warner Bros.

Deadline reports that Phil Lord and Christopher Miller are working on a story for Warner Bros.' planned big screen adaptation of The Flash. As of right now, it's only a story treatment that the duo are developing and the site points out that they are not yet attached to direct. It could be that they just come up with a story for the studio to then enlist another writer or they might write the script themselves. Right now though, it's just a treatment, but hopefully they do end up writing and directing! Fans have been wondering when The LEGO Movie directors might tackle a superhero movie, and while there were rumblings of some sort of animated Spider-Man spinoff, that was before Sony teamed up with Marvel. Ezra Miller is set to play The Flash - it's not clear if he'll star as Barry Allen or Wally West - and it has a release date of March 23rd, 2018. What do you think?

Please have them direct this as well. It's a waste to have them just write.

I don't give a shit what anyone says, in terms of filmmakers DC/WB has the best and most talented out of Fox and the MCU.

Phil Lord and Chris Miller for Flash.
James Wan for Shazam.
Jeff Nichols for Aquaman.
David Ayer for Suicide Squad.
Michelle MacLaren for Wonder Woman.
Possibly Ben Affleck directing Batman or the guys behind John Wick.

Snyder is by far the weakest but he's got Chris Terrio writing so it evens out.

Also Del Toro involved in Justice League Dark (which he's written the screenplay for)

And JGL involved in a Sandman take which Neil Gaiman loves.

You can't deny the level of talent.

Now do us all a favor, Andy Serkis for Grodd.

Let's get the trifecta with Andy playing monkeys with Kong, Caesar, and Grodd.

I think they will end up directing. They're probably just vying for more control on the Lego franchise.
