The Flash movie has gone through a lot of troubles recently. The Warner Bros. production initially had script changes as well as numerous directorial changes. These incidents have led many DC fans to wonder whether a solo Flash film would see the day of light. Moreover, new reports now indicate that the movie’s producers are looking to recast the actor playing the role of Iris West in the film. This report would mean that Kiersey Clemons will no longer feature as Flash’s love interest in the DC Extended Universe.
Clemons's role as Iris West
Clemons’s debut was initially planned in the 2017 Justice League movie with her follow-up feature being in Flash’s solo film. However, these plans did not materialize due to the departing of directors from the Flash movie. Meanwhile, Clemons’s portrayal of Iris West has been seen by fans through behind the scenes images as well as brief deleted movie scenes.
What does the casting call detail for a new Iris West?
According to reports, the makers of the Flash movie are looking to cast a new actor to play Iris West. The casting call is for an actress between the age of 21 and 25 years. West’s character is described as smart and bold. She is always spotted with a cellphone in her hand. The character is a bit over the top but is considered charming at the same time. Moreover, West works for The Central Citizen newspaper.
A new cast for the movie?
There has been a lot of gossip regarding the future of the Flash solo movie. Many rumors point towards an entirely new cast to being hired for the film. Ezra Miller, who has played the role of Flash in the DC Extended Universe so far, was recently caught in a controversy. The actor choked a young fan in Reykjavik, Iceland. However, the actor’s representatives have not commented upon this matter; neither have Warner Brothers.
However, this incident casts doubts on his continual as the DC superhero in movies. Along with the casting call for a new Iris West, there is a strong possibility of the casting of new actors for the upcoming Flash movie.
