The Flash Director: Film Flopped Because "People Don't Care About the Character," Especially Women

The Fastest Man Alive wasn’t a runaway hit with audiences — especially women. That’s according to The Flash director Andy Muschietti, who sa

If I was feeling mean, I'd say that it's true no one cares about the Flash, but I feel more that despite the enthusiasm by the creators and actors like Michael Keaton and Sasha Calle, the fact that it was a mediocre superhero film starring a controversial" lead actor with subpar special effects probably had more of a bearing on why it didn't do so well beyond "women don't know who the Flash is".

The character had a who that ran (haha) for nine seasons, while not everyone watched that show (I know I didn't), the fact that it was an overtly not great movie (plus Miller's antics) more likely made people more willing to choose other more convincingly good films instead.

I think that James Gunn did mention recently that there are no immediate plans to have a new version of the Flash appear in the new DCU, but I think that considering Gunn's whole thing is introducing obscure comicbook characters and making the audience fall in love with them, a version that actually WORKS on screen will probably happen at one point or another (especially as they have already confirmed that Gorilla Grodd is a thing in the new DCU).

Just have it be Wally West when the Flash next appears, and pretend that Barry died. That's when Barry worked best as a character, when he was dead and not appearing in anything except in flashbacks. Or have a movie focusing on the Rogues and introduce Wally in that film as a heroic antagonist or something.

This is awesome on so many levels.
