As previously announced, “Y Tu Mama Tambien” actor Maribel Verdú will play Barry Allen’s mother. Although little is known about the plot, it is expected to play a pivotal role in the comic book adventure.
The cast also includes Ben Affleck as Batman and Michael Keaton as Batman (from another dimension, as is done). Sasha Calle from “The Young and the Restless” was recently chosen to play Supergirl, while Kiersey Clemons embarked on the film as Iris West, a romantic interest in Flash.
“It” director Andy Muschietti is taking on the role of “The Flash” filmmaker. Christina Hodson, who wrote the spin-off for “Transformers”, “Bumblebee” and “Birds of Prey”, wrote the latest version of the script.
