HBO Max has shared the first teaser trailer for its upcoming film The Flash<\/a>, giving fans a sneak-peek at Michael Keaton\u2019s return as Batman.<\/p>\n

The movie, which will see Ezra Miller reprise the titular role, follows Barry Allen\/The Flash as he harnesses his power to visit \u201cany timeline\u201d and \u201cany universe\u201d to prevent his mother\u2019s murder, running into Michael Keaton\u2019s Batman<\/a> in the process.<\/p>\n\n<p>While we didn\u2019t get a look at the Spider-Man star\u2019s face in the teaser, which first aired at DC FanDom, it featured a shot of Batman from the back before Barry asks him: \u201cAre you in?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>We then see Barry pull the sheet from a car, however the screen cuts to black before we get to see what\u2019s underneath, but judging by his reaction, it\u2019s more than likely going to be the Batmobile, with Barry shouting, \u201cHoly sh\u2013\u201d before he\u2019s interrupted by a title card announcing that the film is currently in production.<\/p>\n<p>Directed by It\u2019s Andy Muschietti, The Flash is currently filming in London, with a release date set for November 2022.<\/p> <p>Kiersey Clemons is set to reprise her role as Iris West from Zack Snyder\u2019s Justice League, while Maribel Verd\u00fa and Ron Livingston will be introduced as Barry\u2019s parents.<\/p>\n<p>Also joining the cast are <a href=\"\/\/www.radiotimes.com\/tv\/comedy\/derry-girls-season-3-release-date\/"\" target=\""_blank"\" rel=\""noopener" noopener noreferrer\">Derry Girls<\/a>\u2018 Saoirse-Monica Jackson, comedian Rudy Mancuso and Sasha Calle, who\u2019ll be playing Supergirl.<\/p>\n<p>Ben Affleck will be returning as Batman for the film, however Michael Keaton will play an older Bruce Wayne from an alternate universe.<\/p>\n<p>Keaton starred as the iconic Wayne in 1989\u2019s Batman and its sequel, 1992\u2019s Batman Returns, both directed by Tim Burton.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Looking for something else to watch?
