Then there’s Vaughn, who is keen on making a third Kingsman movie, so if 20th Century Fox decides to move forward with that project, it may prevent him from working on The Flash.
According to THR, Robert Zemeckis, Matthew Vaughn and Sam Raimi are on the shortlist to get The Flash directing gig, although official offers haven’t been delivered to any of them yet.
Sam Raimi doesn’t have any movies coming up, but he is an executive producer on the Ash vs. Evil Dead TV series.
Zemeckis appears to be leading the charge for the job among the trio, and while his Steve Carell-led movie The Women of Marwen could cause scheduling conflicts, it’s also possible that Warner Bros may set aside their goal of shooting The Flash before the year is finished to wait for him.
