The Flash loses its director Seth Grahame-Smith over creative differences?
Los Angeles: Seth Grahame-Smith has reportedly left his directing duties on Warner Bros' 'The Flash' over "creative differences."
The superhero film will star Ezra Miller in the titular role. Grahame-Smith, the author and screenwriter of such works as 'Pride and Prejudice and Zombies' and 'Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter', was to have made his directorial debut on the project based on the iconic DC Entertainment scarlet-speedster superhero, said The Hollywood reporter.
The project will retain Grahame-Smith's script, which he wrote working off of a treatment by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the 'Lego Movie' duo who once were eyeing it as a possible directing vehicle.
'The Flash' already has a release date, March 16, 2018, and Miller is portraying the classic hero known as "the fastest man alive."
Miller's Flash, aka Barry Allen, was introduced in a cameo appearance in 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice', and is now shooting 'The Justice League Part One', which will be released in the fall of 2017.
Grahame-Smith still remains involved in other Warners projects. He is a writer on the studio's ‘Lego Batman’ Movie and is working on ‘Beetlejuice 2’.
