THE FLASH Set Photos Seemingly Give Us A First Look At Ben Affleck's Version Of Batman

Though it doesn't appear to be Ben Affleck himself in the costume, these latest photos from the UK set of The Flash seemingly give us a first glimpse of a stunt double suited-up as the DCEU's Batman.

Some more photos from the set of The Flash have found their way online, and it looks like we finally have a first glimpse of Ben Affleck's incarnation of Batman... or at least, a stunt double in his Batman costume!

Though there's a slim chance this is Affleck himself, the Justice League actor was only recently spotted on vacation in Italy with Jennifer Lopez. Plus, it would be unusual for a high-profile star to perform any kind of motorcycle stunts themselves (unless they happen to be Tom Cruise), so this is most likely a stand-in.

Nevertheless, this is clearly the established DCEU Dark Knight riding into action on his Batcycle and not Michael Keaton's version, who will be sporting his classic Batman '89 costume. Previous set snaps have also featured Sasha Calle's Supergirl, and Ezra Miller as Barry Allen.

The Batsuit appears to have given a few upgrades since we last saw it (the cape will no doubt be added in post), though there's always a chance Affleck's Bruce Wayne will don a couple of different outfits.

Christina Hodson wrote the The Flash's script, with Michael Disco and Marianne Jenkins on board as executive producers. Plot details are still under wraps, but the story is expected to be at least partially influenced by the Flashpoint comic book arc.

In addition to Calle, Miller, Keaton and Affleck, Kiersey Clemons will reprise the role of Iris West, and Zack Snyder's Justice League star Ray Fisher recently indicated that there was still a chance he could appear as Cyborg (we seriously doubt that happens at this stage).

The Flash is currently shooting in The UK, and is scheduled to race into theaters on November 4, 2022.

@RageDriver2401 - It's a pick your poison situation.

Personally, I think I'd prefer Ana, but that kid was probably running circle around him.

Then again, JLo is a spicy little dirty dirty. That old dog probably knows quite a few more tricks.

@Waddles - Gwyneth was a wholesome, clean-cut girl before she met Ben. Now she sells dubious products and fish-smelling candles online.

Although the bike looks as impractically huge as the car, I'm happy to see Affleck's Batman again. Another thing to look forward to this movie that isn't Miller's Flash.

I'm definitely looking more forward to see both both versions of Batman than I am in seeing the Flash

@SimplyAz - and Supergirl too. Just not Flash, especially an indication that doesn't work for me

@SimplyAz - it's funny how the title character is the one I'm actually least excited to see.... and im talking about even over background extras.

Exactly, very strange. Think he needs a strong showing in this movie

@SimplyAz - I heard it was Glasgow. The 'bus stand' writing on the road leads me to think it's not in London....we never call it a bus stand 🤔 if it's in London someone needs to let me know 😭

I just googled it after reading what you wrote.
A bit of both it seems, they already did it around St Paul's Cathedral in London.

Wikipedia has the following:
Filming
Principal photography began on April 19, 2021,[82] at Warner Bros. Studios, Leavesden, in England,[76][77] with Henry Braham serving as cinematographer.[83] In early May, filming took place at Burghley House in Stamford, Lincolnshire, England, with the location doubling for Wayne Manor.[84] In mid-June, Miller, Clemons, Keaton, and Calle filmed scenes at St Paul's Cathedral in London, with the surrounding locations designed to double for Central City.[85] Later that month, filming occurred in Edinburgh—doubling for Gotham City—and Glasgow, for flashback scenes with Affleck and Keaton.[86][additional citation(s) needed]

@SimplyAz - "Flashback scenes with Affleck and Keaton"? WTF is that about?! Intriguing.

Both Edinburgh and Glasgow doubling for Gotham is neat.

They should also go to Leeds, the City of Owls (also in the UK somewhere).

Dude, I work down the road in Tottenham Court Road.

I can't believe I missed it either. I knew it looked familiar from the photos but then that part of London looks very similar to other parts nearby.
