DC's 'The Flash' trailer arrives; hints of 'multiverse'?

Los Angeles: Warner Bros. has released the official trailer of its DC Comics superhero movie, 'The Flash', ahead of the Super Bowl. The prime attraction the trailer features is the hints of a multiverse.

The new movie is the first solo venture by the superhero after his cameo appearance in 2016 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Ezra Miller portrays the superhero in the DC cinematic universe. In the new movie, the central character, Barry Allen (donned by Miller), crashes into the multiverse, or more precisely at different timelines, according to what the trailer hints at.

Flash (or Barry Allen) can be seen bumping into another version of himself and two versions of Batman: Ben Affeck's and Micheal Keaton's.

There's also a return of Michael Shannon's General Zod from 'Man of Steel' and the debut of Sasha Calle's Supergirl. The cast also includes Kiersey Clemons as Iris West, Saoirse-Monica Jackson, Antje Traue and Maribel Verdu, 'Variety' adds.

'The Flash' and 'Variety reports' had a troubled runway over the past year with Miller's numerous legal troubles. In March 2022, they were arrested twice in Hawaii within one month, first for disorderly conduct and harassment and then for second-degree assault. Miller pleaded no contest to the assault charge, and the harassment charge was later dismissed.

In January, 'Variety' continues, Miller took a plea deal in a Vermont case, pleading guilty to a charge of unlawful trespassing and having two other criminal counts against them dropped. Miller has also been accused of choking a woman in an Icelandic bar and harassing another in her home in Berlin.
