A new preview for The Flash movie showcases Michael Keaton's iconic Batcave, as Batman agrees to aid Barry Allen in his search for Superman. After many years in the DCEU, Barry Allen is finally receiving his own movie, with Ezra Miller reprising his role as the Scarlet Speedster this summer. While the film will focus on the fastest man alive, it will also incorporate the wider multiverse, including the return of Keaton as Batman.
With The Flash movie set to hit theaters in just a few weeks, Fandango has unveiled a new clip from the highly anticipated DCEU film. The footage shows both versions of Barry exploring the Batcave before Keaton's Bruce Wayne makes his entrance.
The Flash movie clip depicts Barry's realization that he has been trapped in an alternate universe, and his subsequent search for Superman. This scene precedes the introduction of Sasha Calle's character, Kara Zor-El. The clip provides insight into various aspects of the upcoming movie.
While The Flash movie takes place in a separate universe, it will still be following Keaton's Batman years after the events of Batman Returns. The clip reveals that his Batman has made significant changes to the Batcave as technology has advanced over the years. Notably, the Batcave appears to be larger than before, suggesting that Bruce has expanded it since it was last seen in 1992.
One of the most significant updates in the Batcave is the advanced version of Keaton's Batwing, which surpasses his first version by far. According to merchandise for The Flash movie, it is referred to as the "Ultimate Batwing," although it remains to be seen whether it will actually be called that in the film. It is intriguing that the Batmobile has mostly remained the same, but this may be due to nostalgia.
It will be fascinating to discover what Keaton's Batman has been doing over the past three decades since Batman Returns. Although this may be Keaton's final portrayal as the Dark Knight, his return is one of the most highly anticipated elements of The Flash movie. With just a few weeks until the release, it remains to be seen what other upgrades The Flash movie will unveil regarding Keaton's Batman.
