Warner is pushing back the start of filming on the studio’s still untitled standalone Flash film.
The film never received a formal greenlight nor did it have a set release date, but it had been expected to begin shooting in March.
However, a script is not yet ready and the studio thinks that it won’t enough time for the film to make its original start date.
Ezra Miller, the live-wire performer playing the Flash, also has a key supporting role in “Fantastic Beasts,” the “Harry Potter” spin-off series; the third film in the franchise begins shooting in July.
The standalone Flash film is expected to start production in late 2019, which means the superhero adventure won’t debut in theaters until 2021.
