The Flash is without a director as Seth Grahame-Smith leaves the project

Last Updated on August 2, 2021

It seems as though there's trouble brewing in Central City as Warner Bro's upcoming film THE FLASH will have to begin looking for a new director. Seth Grahame-Smith was to have made his feature directorial debut on THE FLASH but THR is reporting that Grahame-Smith has left the project due to, say it with me now, "creative differences." Sigh.

Seth Grahame-Smith's influence won't be entirely absent from THE FLASH however, as Warner Bros. will still be using Grahame-Smith's script which he wrote working off a treatment from Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (THE LEGO MOVIE). As THE FLASH's release date is still a ways off, there's plenty of time for Warner Bros. to locate a replacement. THE FLASH will star Ezra Miller as Barry Allen, who made a cameo appearance in the recent BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE and is in the midst of shooting JUSTICE LEAGUE – PART ONE with Zack Snyder. THE FLASH is set for a March 3, 2018 release. This isn't the first time that a DCEU film has experienced some "creative differences," as Michelle MacLaren bowed out of WONDER WOMAN for the same reason.

Who would you like to see direct THE FLASH?
