New statues from McFarlane Toys based on DC Studios and Warner Bros. Discovery's The Flash provide detailed looks at Ezra Miller's and Michael Keaton's new costumes for the upcoming film.
McFarlane Toys released previews of the 12-inch statues on its website, complete with videos and images. Keaton's Dark Knight is featured in a fighting pose, while Miller's lightning-infused Scarlet Speedster is in full stride. The statues are now available for pre-order and will be released sometime in 2023.
McFarlane's previews also come complete with new character bios and details on The Flash's plot. The bio for Keaton's Batman describes the Caped Crusader as "older, long-retired from service as Gotham City's protector and somehow even more hardened than the billionaire superhero Barry has grown to know. With a global threat on the horizon, Bruce Wayne must decide whether he can become Batman once more." Each statue comes with a collectible art card featuring character art on the front and a character biography, such as the one mentioned above, on the back.
More Flash Merch Hits the Shelves
As The Flash nears its finish line on June 16, the film's merchandise has offered fans more clues on what they can expect from the Fastest Man Alive's first solo outing on the big screen. In February, McFarlane Toys also released a look at an action figure line based on the film, with a sneak peek at a figure modeled after Miller's Barry Allen and his new suit. Many fans expressed excitement for future figures based on Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton's Batmen, Sasha Calle's Supergirl and Michael Shannon's General Zod.
Also in February, the DC Shop released a t-shirt featuring references to Affleck and Keaton, hinting at a potential onscreen meeting between the fan-favorite Bat-performers. It is unknown how much screen time Affleck and Keaton share in The Flash, if any, though rumors suggest they share at least one scene. DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn recently confirmed that Affleck's time in the cape and cowl will come to an end after his final appearances in The Flash and December's Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, but he has yet to comment on Keaton's fate. That said, Gunn has confirmed that a new actor will play the DC Universe's new Batman when the character is reintroduced in The Brave and the Bold.
The Flash races into theaters on June 16.
