The Flash star Sasha Calle celebrated the release of the highly-anticipated DC film’s first trailer, as she shares her excitement for everyone to meet her version of Supergirl.
The actor shared her reaction to the explosive first trailer of The Flash by expressing her love for the Girl of Steel. She also opened up about her experience playing Kara Danvers in the movie, describing it as "one of the greatest honors" of her life. The Super Bowl trailer featured a first-look at Supergirl in action and gave fans a glimpse of her character arc in the film.
The Flash is directed by Andy Muschietti, best known for the blockbuster horror franchise It. Ezra Miller is returning to reprise their role as Barry Allen/ Flash for the seventh time in their career since Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. They will be joined by returning DC vets Michael Keaton, Ben Affleck, Michael Shannon, and Kiersey Clemons. Gal Gadot and Henry Cavill were originally attached to appear as Wonder Woman and Superman. However, due to the recent restructuring of DC Films, now called DC Studios, their cameos were scrapped.
The Flash's Star Kryptonian
The long-delayed DC film has been confirmed to adapt the popular Flashpoint storyline from the comics, which will feature Barry Allen traveling to the past to prevent his mother’s death. However, when things didn’t go as planned, Barry suddenly finds himself trapped in an alternate reality where there are no metahumans and General Zod has returned to destroy Earth. In this timeline, Kal-El wasn’t discovered by the Kents, but has instead become a lab-rat in an underground government facility. The trailer seemingly confirmed that Calle’s Supergirl will be taking over Superman’s role in Barry Allen’s mission to restore the timeline.
DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn recently opened up about The Flash’s role in the current plans for building the DC Universe and transitioning away from the DCEU, confirming, "Flash resets many things, not all things. Some characters will remain, some do not." After watching a cut of the film, Gunn also went to give high praise for The Flash, describing it as "probably one of the greatest superhero movies ever made."
The Flash will arrive in theaters on June 16.
