Phil Lord And Chris Miller Says Barry Allen Is Their 'The Flash,' Will Be A Stand-Alone Movie

One of the many, many projects Phil Lord and Chris Miller are working on is "The Flash," with Warner Bros. tasking the pair with developing the story for this superhero picture. With the movie not due in cinemas until 2018, the duo still have some time to figure out what their incarnation will be. Yet they seem to have figured out a path, and they recently shared what their version of "The Flash" will entail.

"We’re trying to break a story," Lord told Hippojuice. "It’s interesting, because there’s a really popular TV show out there, and we’re trying to carve out space for the movie that’s apart from that. I think we’re doing alright. … I believe [our Flash] is going to be Barry Allen. … It’s going to be it’s own [thing, apart from the TV show]… it really is its own thing, and kind of a stand-alone movie. We’re just trying to think of the best story. I think you guys will like it, it’s kind of a different take on superhero stuff."

So does that...
