The Flash did n’t just wake up on the wrong side of bed , he woke up in the wrong world . He has no powers , the Justice League does n’t survive , and someone else is wearing Batman ’s cowl — and he ’s star in Flashpoint , DC ’s next straight - to - dwelling house - video animated movie . here ’s the first prevue .
Flashpoint is the risible case that birthed the New 52 - niverse ( or killed the original DC universe , if you ’re being negative about it ) . Here ’s the prescribed synopsis , if you ’re not distressed about spoilers :
When time travelling set aside a past wrong to be correct for Flash and his family , the event ’s worldly ripples prove disastrous , make a fractured , alternate realness where the Justice League never formed , and even Superman is nowhere to be found . Amidst a new world being ravaged by a fierce war between Wonder Woman ’s Amazons and Aquaman ’s Atlanteans , Flash must team up with a gritty , more tearing Batman and government agent Cyborg to restore the continuity of Flash ’s original timeline .
I make love that Thomas Wayne is Batman , mostly because I make love the idea that all member of the Wayne kin are genetically predisposed to fighting crime while dressing like bats . in any case , Flashpoint does have a fairly epic vocalism cast :
Primetime television stars Justin Chambers ( Grey ’s Anatomy ) and Kevin McKidd ( Grey ’s Anatomy ) , the voices of Barry Allen / Flash and Thomas Wayne / Batman , respectively , unite with numerous greats of tv set and picture to fashion the illustrious animate function . Adding to the celebrity - ladened voice cast and providing thrilling improver to the Justice League serial publication are Michael B. Jordan ( Fruitvale , Friday Night Lights , Chronicle ) as Cyborg , C. Thomas Howell ( Southland , The Outsiders ) as Thawne / Professor Zoom , Nathan Fillion ( Castle ) as Hal Jordan / Green Lantern , Ron Perlman ( Hellboy ) as Slade and Deathstroke , Dana Delany ( Body of Proof ) as Lois Lane , Cary Elwes ( The Princess Bride ) as Aquaman , Danny Huston ( Magic City ) as General Lane , Sam Daly ( The Office , The Daly Show ) as Superman , and Kevin Conroy ( Batman : The Animated Series ) as Batman .
It ’s always nice to hear the DCUC habitue , although since this is result is all out out with the old DC and in with the new , I marvel if DC is attempt to say something here . Hmm . Oh well , Cary Elwes as a Wonder Woman - hating Aquaman sound passably awesome , if nothing else .
