The Flash Director Top Choice To Direct DC Universe's Batman Movie

The Flash movie director Andy Muschietti is reportedly being looked at to helm Batman: The Brave and The Bold for James Gunn's new DC Universe. With the DCEU coming to an end this year, Gunn and Peter Safran are busy working on the new DC Universe, which will be a fresh start for Warner Bros. Discovery in running an interconnected franchise based on DC properties. One of the last DCEU films on the release calendar is The Flash from Muschietti, starring Ezra Miller as Barry Allen.

SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT It appears that the Flash filmmaker is looking to stay with the DC franchise after 2023. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Muschietti is currently the top choice to direct Batman: The Brave and The Bold, which will be part of DC Studios' Chapter 1, "Gods and Monsters.

His success with the It films is also a huge factor in why Muschietti was brought on to The Flash; he has already proven his talent to work within larger studio systems and handle valuable IP franchises. Then there is The Flash movie itself, a project that had been stuck in development hell for years and lost several directors before Muschietti finally signed on. He was able to get principal photography underway, and the movie is only a week away from being released.

It is likely that once The Flash has opened in theaters and when Warner Bros. is able to see how the film is doing, a proper deal will be finalized between them and Muschietti. What is also a huge upside for Muschietti is that if he directs Batman: The Brave and The Bold, he will already be experienced in having tackled the Dark Knight in a DC movie, with Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck's versions showing up in Miller's film.
