After building the “Lego Movie” franchise for Warner Bros., Phil Lord and Christopher Miller have come on board the studio’s superhero movie “The Flash,” multiple individuals familiar with the project have told TheWrap.
Ezra Miller is set to star as “The Flash,” a superhero whose incredible speed allows him to time travel. The character is going to be a part of Zack Snyder‘s two-part “Justice League” movie.
Lord and Miller will write a treatment to flesh out the story, though they have not signed on to direct yet.
News of Lord and Miller’s potential involvement with “The Flash” was first reported on the Popcorn Talk Network’s podcast Meet the Movie Press, which is hosted by TheWrap’s Jeff Sneider and Mark Reilly of Schmoes Know.
