The Flash is DC's big multiverse event, and with Man of Steel being a big component of it, the movie could spark new interest in the Superman film.
The Flash could lead to a significant resurgence for 2013's Man of Steel. After years in development hell, The Flash is finally set to hit theaters on June 16, 2023, with DC's multiverse being a foundational element of its story. In The Flash, Barry Allen time-travels into the past to prevent the murder of his mother, but in doing so, causes a major timeline calamity with the return of General Zod , once more on a mission to invade and terraform Earth into a new Krypton.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Inspired by the Flashpoint comic book story, reports indicate The Flash movie being incredibly well-received in both test screenings and internally at Warner Bros. Discovery and DC Studios. While The Flash's multiverse story is partly segueing into the upcoming new DCU plans of James Gunn and Peter Safran, the movie's venture into the past could have an unexpected side effect.
With The Flash's core story seeming to be a retelling of Man of Steel through a Flashpoint-inspired story, the Scarlet Speedster's movie could potentially catalyze a new wave of Man of Steel being revisited en masse. That is especially the case if The Flash is indeed as good as it is described to be. Furthermore, The Flash's alternate reality version of Man of Steel could also inspire a renaissance for Snyder's Superman film in light of James Gunn's DCU plans.
The Flash Is The Last Chance For A Man Of Steel Farewell Both Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice were initially subject to very divisive responses but, over time, have accumulated more widespread love, particularly in the wake of the release of Zack Snyder's Justice League in 2021. While Gunn's DCU plans could potentially carry over cast members of the original DCEU , Gunn will present a new take on the Man of Steel in Superman: Legacy.
Given The Flash's early reception and planned showing at 2023's Cinema Con a full two months before the film's release, it is clear that WBD and DC Studios have tremendous confidence in the film. With The Flash's many rumored and confirmed characters from past and contemporary DC movies and TV shows, The Flash being so heavily predicated on the events of Man of Steel does far more than stress its importance to the DCEU and Superman's history.
