The first set of photos from DC’s upcoming film The Flash reveals Batman’s (Michael Keaton) home, Wayne Manor, will return to Ezra Miller’s upcoming solo film.
In 1989’s Batman and its sequel Batman Returns, Wayne Manor was portrayed by London’s Knebworth House, a Gothic Tudor mansion, but only for the exterior shots.
In the first batch of set photos, we know that The Flash is making a return trip to Wayne Manor. As per the web magazine The Lincolnite, Warner Bros. trucks and set construction were spotted at Burghley House in Lincolnshire, England.
Miller and Keaton have yet to be spotted on set, but that could happen soon.
The 1989 Batman was a landmark film that set the standards for comic adaptations in the years to come. A visit to Bruce Wayne’s house, and possibly the Batcave that’s underneath it, could mean feature teases of other villains Batman fought or updates on Bruce’s personal life, like if he got married or had any sidekicks.
It remains to be seen, however, if Miller or Keaton will film scenes at the Lincolnite or if the crew is merely there to capture establishing shots. With some set decorations in place as we speak, it’d not be long before filming takes off.
Now that The Flash has been linked to the location, rely on the paparazzi to stake out the place for the next few weeks.
Ezra Miller’s portrayal of the Scarlet Speedster started with a cameo in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016. The plan was for his solo film to be in theaters just two years later. After multiple creative changes and delays, The Flash is now in production under Andy Muschietti.
As long expected, the solo film will affect the multiverse and be a loose adaptation of Flashpoint, a 2011 comic book crossover story arc published by DC Comics.
The introduction of the concept of the multiverse opens up many avenues for The Flash. We have known for a while that Ben Affleck’s Batman will have a cameo in The Flash.
Although there have been some questions on whether or not Keaton’s Batman would appear, it was recently confirmed that his iconic caped crusader will also make comeback.
With the return of Keaton, fans have held out hope that there’ll be many Easter eggs for them to dig up from Batman (1943) and Batman Returns (1992).
The Flash hits theaters in 2022.
