Since Barry headed off at the end of Justice League: Apokolips War WB has released 2 movies in the DCEU and we have seen no sign of the Scarlet Speedster. Today brings news from our friends over at WB Home Entertainment which seem to give us a bit of an update as to what Mr Allen’s been up to since then. The Flash has been speeding across time to help a super hero team in Justice Society: World War II. Stana Katic (Castle, Absentia, A Call To Spy) and Matt Bomer (Doom Patrol, White Collar, The Boys in the Band), who made their DC Universe Movies debuts as Lois Lane and Superman in the 2013 film Superman: Unbound, return to the popular animated film series in the lead roles of Wonder Woman and The Flash for Justice Society of America story in the DCEU.
Looks like a good chance we will see classic The Flash #123 cover recreated
Justice Society: World War II finds modern-day Barry Allen – prior to the formation of the Justice League – discovering he can run even faster than he imagined, and that milestone results in his first encounter with the Speed Force. The Flash (Matt Bomer) is promptly launched into the midst of a raging battle –primarily between Nazis and a team of Golden Age DC Super Heroes known as The Justice Society of America. Led by Wonder Woman (Stana Katic), the group includes Hourman (Matthew Mercer), Black Canary (Elysia Rotaru), Hawkman (Omid Abtahi), Steve Trevor (Chris Diamantopoulos) and the Golden Age Flash, Jay Garrick (Armen Taylor). The Flash quickly volunteers to assist his fellow heroes in tipping the scales of war in their favor, while the team tries to figure out how to send him home. But it won’t be easy as complications and emotions run deep in this time-skipping World War II thriller.
Does Justice Society: World War II pick up right where Justice League: Apokolips War leaves off? I went right to the source. Super Scribe Jeremy Adams (Mortal Kombat Legends, Teen Titans Go Vs. Teen Titans ) had this to say…
Hmm. Jeremy’s side stepping sounds a little suspicious, no? You can snoop around the trailer for clues right here:
Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC, the feature-length animated film will be distributed by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on Digital starting April 27, 2021, and on 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack and Blu-ray on May 11, 2021.
