5 Characters Reportedly Being Cast in THE FLASH Solo Movie
I have made my opinion about the casting of Ezra Miller as Barry Allen/The Flash known, and it still hasn’t changed. I am not a fan. On that note, casting has started for the upcoming movie The Flash. Heroic Hollywood seems to have gotten their hands on the breakdown sent out to casting agencies for what spots are going to be filled in the movie. Here is what they had to say:
IRIS WEST
Iris West is described in the breakdown as having Christiane Amanpour’s brains and Carrie Bradshaw’s style. An overcaffinated doe. A reporter at The Central City Citizen. Actresses are currently testing for this part.
EOBARD THAWNE
Eobard Thawne is described in the breakdown as Central City’s Bill Gates. The smartest man in the room and he suffers from advanced degenerative disease like Stephen Hawking. Thawne is confined to a chair.
FRED CHYRE
Fred Chyre is described in the breakdown as a gruff detective who first meets Barry at the scene of a crime. Now they’re colleagues and the closest thing Barry has to a friend. Chryre is investigating the unusual death of someone at Thawne Laboratories.
LEN SNART
Len Snart is described in the breakdown as being ex-military and turns out to be working for Thawne. Have a feeling he is the muscle the way Anatoli Knyazev (aka the KGBEAST) was the muscle for Lex Luthor in Batman v Superman: Dawn Of Justice.
JAY GARRICK
Jay Garrick is described in the breakdown as being a former Central University professor who was fired for fringe science, and was working on the speed force program. Supposedly his role is just a cameo.
As much as I am not a fan of the casting of Miller as The Flash, The Flash is my favorite DC hero, so I hope this works out. I don’t want people being introduced to The Flash in a suck ass movie. That situation almost killed Daredevil.
Am I being too hard on this casting situation? What are your thoughts?
