Warner Bros. has announced on Wednesday that “The Flash” is set to be released on July 1, 2022.

Ezra Miller is reprising the role which debuted in Zack Snyder‘s Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice, and then returned in Justice League. The director of the “It” movies, Andy Muschietti, is currently attached to direct.

Along with the Flash’s new release date, the satudio also announced the release date for its highly-anticipated Matrix 4. The currently untitled film is set for release on May 21, 2121. Keanu Reeves and Carrie-Anne Moss are currently expected to return for the fourth “Matrix” as well as series co-creator Lana Wachowski.

The Flash movie has had a long road to development since first being announced in 2014. Though Ezra Miller has since been hopeful of the film’s eventual release, things got a bit uncertain after Justice League somewhat underperformed at the boxoffice in 2017.

The Flash joins the list of films that the studio is developing as part of the DC Universe, joining next year’s Birds of Prey (set for release on February 7, 2020), Wonder Woman 1984 (June 5, 2020), then the following year with The Batman (June 5, 2021), The Suicide Squad (August 6, 2021) and Black Adam (December 22, 2021), while Aquaman 2 arrives on the same year as The Flash (currently dated for release on December 16).
