This means that some Reddit speculation is correct - The Flash seen at that moment in the movie comes from a completely different timeline that no longer exists.Īdded Snyder: "There's this idea I had that in the future, when they're talking about sending Flash back in time to warn him, that Cyborg who's doing the calculations to send him back, would say, 'This is where-I have two possibilities of where to send Flash back in time.' The numbers point to two moments to warn you. In the comics, Darkseid has the Anti-Life Equation, a formula that would lead to his reign over humanity.Įffectively, Flash's warning right after the Knightmare sequence is there to prevent the Knightmare's events from becoming real. Should the love of Superman die, Superman would succumb to Darkseid, a powerful god-like being from the alien planet Apokolips. The scene, Snyder says, exists to prevent Batman from killing Lois Lane (Amy Adams). Zack Snyder's answers about The Flash's cameo in 'Batman v Superman' only begets more questions.
I'm not exactly sure what he's supposed to do with that knowledge, at this point." "This is the Flash running through time, coming back to warn Batman, y'know, not to kill Lois Lane, I guess," Snyder says.
Four years later, it's still just as confusing, but Snyder did reveal some insight in his live commentary. Nor is it brought up in the next movie, the 2017 film Justice League.īecause of the vague, cryptic dialogue from The Flash and the lack of follow-up, Flash's cameo scene in Batman v Superman confused many DC fans. The scene takes place immediately after the equally befuddling "Knightmare" sequence - where Batman sees horrifying visions of a bleak future where Superman has amassed power with Darkseid - and is never remarked upon again in the movie.
But an hour and 25 minutes into the stream, Snyder got to one of the film's most polarizing moments: Ezra Miller's cameo as Barry Allen/The Flash, who appears out of time rift to warn Batman about future events with no explanation. On Saturday, Zack Snyder hopped on his favorite social media platform, Vero, and hosted a three-hour live commentary of the extended version of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, the second movie in the DC franchise that starred Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Jesse Eisenberg, and Ben Affleck in his first appearance as Batman.įor three hours, Snyder revealed some insight into the making of his second DC movie, from his thoughts on killing Jimmy Olsen to some of his favorite shots in the movie. But over the weekend, a surprisingly candid Zack Snyder hosted a live-stream commentary of the film's "Ultimate Edition" cut where he finally unpacked one of the movie's weirdest moments: Ezra Miller's surprise cameo as The Flash. Four years ago, Zack Snyder's 2016 DC superhero movie Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice changed superhero movies forever - for better or worse.
