Dobkin was recently interviewed by MTV News and disclosed some information regarding the film. He says that the film will feature the Wally West character as opposed to the Barry Allen. Barry Allen was the Silver Age Flash, and the one portrayed in the CBS produced The Flash television series, while Wally West was the version of the flash shown in the Justice League animated series. Wally West was Barry Allen's sidekick, Kid Flash, until Barry's death.
Dobkin also assures the audience that the character will not be treated as a joke, despite his forte for comedies. He told MTV that his tagline for the film was "You can't outrun yourself."
