The Flash Movie Cast: Billy Crudup Out as Dad, Maribel Verdú in as Mom

The Flash movie casting is — please forgive me — speeding up. After we learned Kiersey Clemons has locked in her deal to play the Flash's (Ezra Miller) love interest Iris West, we've now learned per the Hollywood Reporter that the Flash is gaining a mother, but losing a father. Maribel Verdú (Pan's Labyrinth) will be playing Barry Allen's mother (who does not always make it too far in the character's comic book history). However, Billy Crudup, who played troubled father Henry Allen in a brief, uncredited scene in Justice League (Joss Whedon's version anyway), has dropped out of this version, leaving his more expanded role behind.

Crudup is dropping from the Andy Muschietti (It) directed superhero epic because of shooting conflicts with his Apple TV+ show, the critically acclaimed The Morning Show (The Flash is looking to begin shooting this spring or summer in London). No replacements for him have been announced as of yet.
