October 29th, 2007 in Directors, Movie News

While “The Flash” will be appearing in the upcoming Justice League of America film, he’ll also be getting his very own spin-off.  Today, director David Dobkin revealed to MTV News that he has signed on with Warner Bros.  to bring “The Flash” to the silver screen in a solo project.  Dobkin is taking over as director for Shawn Levy, who left for undisclosed reasons.

Dobkin also revealed some tasty tidbits about the upcoming film, which will be set in the same universe as the JLA movie:

“It’s designed to work as a spin-off from [’JLA’], so we’re honoring the story and we’re working in tandem with the storytelling,” he said. “I think we’ll just have to see how the movie does and how it works off it, but it certainly would be a movie that comes after ‘Justice League.’”

When Dobkin was asked which version of the Flash would be the star hero is in film, he said “Wally West.”   And when questioned about his vision for Flash, he said, “You can’t outrun yourself.”
