The Flash: TV Series Fans Unhappy About Grant Gustin Not Playing Flash in the Movie

Warner Bros finally revealed their slate of upcoming superhero films for the next five to six years. The ten DC films include a solo Flash movie starring Ezra Miller in the leading role.

Warner Bros' choice of actor to play the speeding superhero seems to have disappointed fans of Grant Gustin who's already been accepted as The Flash in the recently launched TV series.

Check out some of the tweets on the subject, from fans: (via Mashable)

Slightly bothered that Grant Gustin isn't getting a shot to play #TheFlash in the DC films. Makes it awkward for fans of the show. — Mike Piff (@Mike_PiFF03) October 15, 2014

Flash had the biggest pilot opening for a show on CW I think Grant Gustin deserved a shot at the flash movie instead of ezra miller

Why is DC not incorporating the TV universe with the movies? Such a missed opportunity. Grant Gustin is a perfect Flash. — Roger SPOOKorny (@rogformer) October 15, 2014
