Finally after multiple delays DC's The Flash will hit theaters on June 16, 2023. However, before you head to the movies to see the film lets get amped by watching some other movies and tv shows.
With The Flash only having small appearances in most DC Extended Universe films, most of the films are just setting the mood for the upcoming release. Although not all movies are a requirement to understand some films, we put together a few in different categories to help.
Must Watch: These films are highly recommended in order to get a full understanding of what might take place in The Flash. Of course they films include the character's introduction and progression over the past few years.
Should Watch: With not much screen time for The Flash it only makes sense to watch his entire DCEU catalog and these are the other films in said catalog.
Extra Credit: While not required by any means, this category is just worth it when you see our selections.
Should Watch // Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
It’s been nearly two years since Superman’s colossal battle with Zod devastated the city of Metropolis. The loss of life and collateral damage left many feeling angry and helpless, including crime-fighting billionaire Bruce Wayne. Convinced that Superman is now a threat to humanity, Batman embarks on a personal vendetta to end his reign on Earth, while the conniving Lex Luthor launches his own crusade against the Man of Steel.
The Flash makes his first DCEU appearance in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Lex Luthor acquired security footage of Barry using his powers to foil a convenience store robbery. Additionally, a future version of Barry travels back in time to warn Bruce Wayne about Superman.
