THE FLASH: WB Reportedly Prepared To Move Forward Without Ezra Miller If Needs Be

Still nothing from Warner Bros. after that shocking footage of Ezra Miller was shared online, but a new rumor suggests that the studio may be ready to move forward with The Flash with or without him...

We expected some kind of official statement from Warner Bros. or Ezra Miller's representatives after footage of the actor appearing to attack a female fan found its way online, but it's been radio silence since. However, we may now have an unofficial update from Fandom Wire.

The site claims to have reached out to a source who informed them that while the studio has yet to make a decision regarding Miller, they are ready to move forward with production on The Flash as soon as they are able, and intend to do so with or without Ezra in the lead role of Barry Allen.

The report also mentions that the most recent script draft revolves around The Scarlet Speedster "racing back through time to save his mother," and reshaping the established timeline in the process. Apparently, Jason Momoa's Aquaman and Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman will be the only Justice League members left after the reset, and Robert Pattinson's Batman will also be incorporated into the new timeline.

Reverse Flash and Mirror Master are said to be the movie's main villains.

While those story details may sound more like fan-fic than anything else, it's worth noting that the site's owner Andy Signore did have solid sources before being shunned by the internet when sexual misconduct allegations were leveled against him, so there's a decent chance he still has a few contacts. Then again, he may be spouting complete nonsense in an effort to make his name relevant again!

What do you guys think? Do you buy any of this? Let us know in the comments.

So...we know nothing? I think most assumed they were willing to move forward without him if need be.

Using this movie to reconcile the timeline would be a great idea.
I’m not married to the idea of having Ezra remain The Flash so they can do whatever they want with that.

@MarvelDCAllDay - Personally, I'd just use a Supergirl/Huntress movie to do that and scoot right along. This Flash isn't established or liked enough for a Flashpoint IMO.

@inkniron - Don’t understand how a Supergirl/Huntress movie would be a better idea. But idk to me Flashpoint is literally a launchpad story for a new universe so it just makes sense to me.

@MarvelDCAllDay - Well, Powergirl, but they seem hell bent on Supergirl. It was a crazy idea I had a couple of years ago. In the comic, they escaped from Earth-2 to Earth Prime by one of Cyborgs BoomTubes right before Darkseid destroyed it. You could do their escape as part of an opening montage or a post credit scene, but either way, it would allow them to tinker with whatever they wanted to.

@inkniron - Not a horrible idea but I feel like that would require even more establishing than Flashpoint.

@MarvelDCAllDay - perhaps, but it isn't hard to dumb down. Besides, the imagery of them running through a field of Snyderverse heroes could really drive home a point.
