Brad Pitt & Tom Cruise Rumored For The Flash

Brad Pitt & Tom Cruise Rumored For The Flash

A batch of rumors has hit the net regarding the DCEU Ezra Miller The Flash movie, which mentions that Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise could land roles in the film as Jay Garrick.

The Flash rumors come from Reddit, so bear that in mind as they could be fake, but having a high profile actor in the role of Jay Garrick could come off rather cool. The Flash TV series cast former Barry Allen actor John Wesley Shipp in the role of Jay Garrick, which worked out wonderfully for the series.

Brad Pitt recently appeared in Deadpool 2, and Tom Cruise recently said he would be open to appearing in a comic book movie.

The Flash

The Flash rumors:

• Warner put FLASHPOINT on the backburner to focus on standalone movies, but it might still happen in the future.

• John Francis Daley and Jonathan Goldstein are currently writing a new draft, which is said to be “very comedic” and with lower stakes, so no time travel, alternate realities, end of the world, etc.

• The Rogues are slated to be the villains. Right now the line-up is Captain Cold, Mirror Master and Weather Wizard, but that’s subject to change.

• Jay Garrick will be featured in a “mentor role”. No word on whether he’ll be a speedster in it.

• Kiersey Clemons and Billy Crudup still set to appear alongside Ezra Miller. Although they’re not casting phase yet, WB reportedly wants an A-lister for Jay Garrick (think Brad Pitt or Tom Cruise), while Daley & Goldstein are looking at actors with dramatic and comedic chops for the Rogues.

• Channing Tatum is a favorite for Captain Cold, and he’s been on WB’s radar ever since Phil Lord & Chris Miller were involved with the project, but there have been no formal talks.

• WB eyeing 2020 release date. Strong possibility of it being released in November/December like AQUAMAN and WONDER WOMAN 2.
