Miller's Flash, aka Barry Allen, is due to be introduced in 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice', and then more prominently in Justice League Part 1, which will be released in the summer of 2017.
Charles Roven is producing the movie. Deborah and Zack Snyder are executive producing. Grahame-Smith has directed episodes of 'The Hard Times of RJ Berger', an MTV comedy he co-created with his producing partner David Katzenberg.
