Warner Bros. Discovery has set The Flash streaming debut on Max for Friday, August 25. The Flash streaming release comes after the movie has grossed $268.5 million worldwide.
The big-screen adaptation has earned $108.1 million at North American theaters and has collected $160.4 million at international markets. The movie is rated PG-13 for sequences of violence and action, some strong language and partial nudity.
Released in theaters on June 16, 2023, The Flash was directed by Andy Muschietti (the IT films, Mama). Ezra Miller reprises their role as Barry Allen in the DC Super Hero’s first-ever standalone feature film.
Worlds collide in The Flash when Barry uses his superpowers to travel back in time in order to change the events of the past.
But when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation, and there are no Super Heroes to turn to.
That is, unless Barry can coax a very different Batman out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian… albeit not the one he’s looking for.
Ultimately, to save the world that he is in and return to the future that he knows, Barry’s only hope is to race for his life. But will making the ultimate sacrifice be enough to reset the universe?
The Flash ensemble also includes rising star Sasha Calle, Michael Shannon (Bullet Train, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice), Ron Livingston (Loudermilk, The Conjuring), and Maribel Verdú (Elite, Y tu mamá también).
