THE FLASH's Cryptic BATMAN v SUPERMAN Cameo Revealed; "[It's] Complicated And Bizarre"
There have been a lot of different rumours about how The Flash factors into Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, but EW has finally revealed the truth, and it's fair to say it won't be what you expected.
Entertainment Weekly reveals that we'll be seeing a lot of dream sequences in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, with both the Dark Knight and the Man of Steel set to get some terrifying visions of the future. One of those will tease the appearance of Darkseid, but The Flash is also set to make an unexpected appearance during on of Bruce Wayne's nightmares as the Scarlet Speedster delivers a cryptic message to the hero.
Is it just a dream or could The Flash be travelling through the speed force to warn him of what's to come? Director Zack Synder calls this "a giant Easter egg" that the site says he hopes will lead to a lot of online speculation. "We had such a straightforward narrative, on one hand, I wanted this other layer of the movie to be complicated and bizarre..."
That's a hell of a lot different to reports that The Flash just shows up as a blur in a convenience store, and it's beginning to look like there's going to be much more to this movie than meets the eye. What do you think?
