The Flash movie rumors are spreading but none seem to me very good. First Ryan Reynolds (Now Green Lantern) was supposed to play Barry Allen the Silver Age Flash. Now rumors are spreading that Wally West The Golden Age Flash will be played by Neil Patrick Hariss. I have come to the conclusion of what I want to see and who I want to see in the Flash movie.
First of all what Flash do I want to see in the film. There have been many Flashes over the course of time, but I want to see Barry Allen in the movie. Besides the DC movies seem to be going the Silver Age route like they are doing with Green Lantern. Second what villain do I want see in the film. I don't know to much about the rougues but I definitely want to see the reverse Flash (Professor Zoom) and reverse Impulse/Kid Flash(Inertia). There powers match equally so that would be cool to see. I also think Barry's love interest Iris should definitely be in the film. The story should show the orgins of Flash, the love between him and Iris, and his battles with Zoom and Inertia.
The sequel should take place years later and be based on The Flash Rebirth story line. That is where Barry Allen is revived and fights along with the current Flash, Wally West to identify a disruption in the Speed Force.
The first film should lead up to the tradegy that occurs because of Zoom (Which I will not spoil). I don't know about Flash fighting the rougues but he should fight Zoom for sure. The movie should have cameos by Superman (Tom Wellings or Brandon Routh) and Green Lantern (Ryan Reynolds). The original Flash should make a cameo as well but not actually fight in the film. Heres my dream cast for the film.
Professor Zoom/Eobard Twane: Leonardo DiCaprio
Let me just say he would probably NEVER agree to play this role, but if he were to that would be great. He could completely pass as Professor Zoom. But I just can't imagine him in the actual Professor Zoom suit.
Zoom/Hunter Zolomon-Micheal Fassbender
I think Fassbender would make a perfect Hunter Zolomon. He's definitely got the actintg skills and experience to play such a sinister villain, he has done it before.
Logan Lerman: Impulse/Kid Flash
First of all the kid can act. Second he is nearly identical to Impulse. For someone who deserves to be a superhero, this is a perfect fit.
Inertia/ Reverse Impulse: Josh Hutcherson
I know he is not blonde but he can definitely pull this off. Plus it will be fun seeing him and Logan fighting each other (like they did for the role of Spider-Man). If your still mad about the fact that he is not blonde, would you prefer Justin Beiber or Cole Sprouse. I didn't think so.
ALLIES
Superman: Tom Wellings
The perfect Superman since the first day he walked onto the Smallville set. Not only is he my pick for the Superman reboot (other then Brandon Routh who I doubt would come back). He should make a cameo so him and Flash can have one of their famous races
Or
Superman: Brandon Routh
While I do predict that Routh won't return as Superman, but he didn't do a bad job in Superman Returns. I wouldn't mind seeing him reprise the role, I just don't think it will happen
Reprising The Role Of Green Lantern/ Hal Jordan: Ryan Reynolds
Everyone who has read the comics knows that Hal Jordan (Green Lantern) and Barry Allen (Flash) are best buddies. You can't make a Flash movie with out a Green Lantern appearance, that would just be wrong.
THE ROUGUES
Heat Wave-Sam Worthington
The part doesn't require a big time actor, but I still want Worthington anyway. He's got the look and the attitude, so guess he'd work.
Weather Wizard-David Tennant
He's a fan favorite so I picked him. I really couldn't think of any one, either Tennant or Johnny Depp.
Captain Cold-Daniel Craig
Captain cold is cold hearted like when Daniel Craig plays 007 in Quantum of Solace he doesn't Brake a tier, but Captain Cold is not all cold hearted.
Trickster-Eric Christian Olsen
Olsen is one of the better young actors, and he is experienced. Olsen is definitely funny enough to be a more comedic Trickster.
Captain Boomerang-Steve Coogan
First of all, Coogan is British not Australian. He looks the part, and acts like Boomerang in his other films. He's not a top notch actor so he might not be suited for the role.
or
Captain Boomerang-Russell Crowe
Crowe on the other hand has the experience, acting ability, and presence to play Boomerang. Plus he IS Australian. He doesn't really look the part though.
Mirror Master-Robert Carlyle
I think that Carlyle could own the part of Mirror Master. I think he shares many personality traits with the character that makes him the best choice.
The Top-Bruce Campbell
As soon as I saw the Top, I thought of Campbell. I don't know why, but I think he'd be great in the role.
SPEED FORCE AND OTHER SUPPORTING CHARACTERS
Jay Garrick: John Wesley Shipp
I didn't even think twice about this one. He played Flash in the old TV sreies plus he even looks a little like Jay Garrick (The First Flash). There shouldn't even be thoughts about another choice.
Of course he will already be an older man in the film but he can be a mentor for Barry.
Linda Park- Grace Park
Park is perfect for, well, Park. She looks exactly like Wally’s girlfriend/wife, and is a great actress (see Battlestar Galactica) .
Iris West-Amy Adams
Adams would be great opposite Duhamel, and is a great actress. I coukd see her as the iconic love interest of the Flash. She would own this part.
Jesse Quick-Amber Heard
Heard would make a pretty good Jesse Quick. She would be a lot better at this then Supergirl, that's for sure.
Max Mercury- John Slattery
He has done CBMs before, and after seeing him as Howard Stark in Iron Man 2, I think he's the ideal choice for Max.
Johnny Quick-Garrett Hedlund
It's a small part and will only be in flashbacks, but I think Johnny should be in the movie and Helund is the perfect guy for the role.
Adult Bart Allen/New Flash-Mark-Paul Gosselaar
I think Mark has the right look and personality to portray an adult version of Bart Allen. While he won't get much screen time, an adult Bart is an important factor for the Flash universe.
Kid Flash/Young Wally West- Emile Hirsch
Wally West as Kid Flash is needed for the first film. Hirsch would be playing young Wally but Pine would be an older Wally by the second film. I can see him as this version of Kid Flash and as a young Chris Pine fighting along side Duhamel.
Finally Barry Allen/ The Flash: Josh Duhamel
He looks like him, acts like him, and talks like him. We have seen him in an action role before (Transformers) and he is pretty funny. He would be a good choice for Barry/Flash in my perspective, but not as good as Ryan Reynolds could have been. Simon Baker is my second choice for the part, and Nathan Fillion is my third.
And Wally West: Chris Pine
He pretty much already played the role in Star Trek, just with out the Flash suit of course. He is a little young to be Flash but he probably looks more like him then Duhamel. I think he's the ideal choice for Wally and would fit the part perfectly.
I would have picked Chris Evans but he is already to many superheroes. But just for the heck of it he's my second choice. Scott Speedman is my third choice.
