According toFlashpointstar Kiersey Clemons , Iris West may not be from the present day after all . While we ’ve spent years fetch to know Candice Patton as Iris West on The CW’sThe FlashTV show , this fall’sJustice Leaguemovie was meant to be our introduction to Clemons ' take on the graphic symbol . And while just last month the actorwas praising the way Iris is introducedin this class ’s big squad - up , a recent story seems to indicateher character has been cut fromJustice Leagueentirely .
If the rumors prove unfeigned , Flashpointwill service as our origination to the adult screen version of Iris . TheFlashpointmovie does n’t have an official sacking date or director bind at the instant , but we know that there are some big names in talk to take the helm ( Robert Zemeckis among them ) and that aFlashpointscript gulp has been completed . And true to its name , the movie will involve a lot of prison term travel and dimension - hopping .
ETspoke with Kiersey Clemons at the premiere of her unexampled filmFlatlinersand asked her how she ’s crafting her version of Iris . The doer confirmed that she ’s not looking to other incarnations , but then dropped a likely bombshell about what makes the DCEU ’s Iris such a unlike character :
" Because of going back and off , past and future with The Flash , you do n’t even know what clip catamenia you actually receive Iris . "
While Clemons does n’t reassert Iris is from another fourth dimension period , it certainly seems like that ’s the case . Could we contact Iris in some far - flung future that Barry Allen travels to ? Or is she from another Earth altogether ? The other hypothesis is thatFlashpointis design to so disorient the interview that it ’s never clear where things are taking place .
It ’s possible that a change to Iris ' backstory is one of the elements included in the latestFlashpointscript draft . It could even be the intellect why the type was cut fromJustice League , as she may require a more complicated unveiling . While Clemons did n’t go into that , she did confirm the current status of theFlashpointmovie :
" We ’re in the process of still replacing our managing director . We just got a new script . "
WB is reportedly still pursuing Robert Zemeckis to helm theFlashpointDCEU film , though his involvement is far from a indisputable - thing at this stage . In the meantime , the DCEU Barry Allen / Flash thespian Ezra Miller has already begun to make a name for himself . DC nous Geoff Johns has articulate thatMiller ’s Flash has been a favoritein the test screenings forJustice Leaguethus far , so perhaps that movie ’s release this November will giveFlashpointthe boost that it needs to make it into the next degree of pre - yield .
