Now that Justice League is well into production, we’re starting to hear bits and pieces about some of the solo DC movies that Warner Bros. has in the pipeline, and here we have an interesting rumor regarding the villain(s) that Ezra Miller’s Scarlet Speedster will be squaring off against in director Rick Famuyiwa’s The Flash.
Earlier in the year, a possible leaked cast list for the film mentioned the name ‘Len Snart,’ which is almost certainly Leonard Snart, AKA Captain Cold – but Umberto Gonzalez of Heroic Hollywood reckons the icy bad guy won’t be taking on the Fastest Man Alive on his lonesome, and that the rest of The Rogues will be backing him up.
In the comics, The Flash regularly faces a menagerie of his most colorful adversaries, who refer to themselves as The Rogues, or, The Rogues Gallery. The roster shifts around a bit, but team mainstays generally include the likes of Cold, Captain Boomerang, Mirror Master, The Trickster, Heatwave and Weather Wizard.
Gonzalez seems pretty certain about this, but obviously until we hear something official we’ll have to take it with the requisite grain of salt. In any case, we’re bound to find out a lot more about the villains The Flash will be taking on before his solo movie hits theaters on March 16, 2018.
