Now, The Hollywood Reporter claims that the studio is looking to lock a new Flash director and have a very interesting list of names eyeing the project.
The former helmed Sony Pictures‘ original Spider-Man trilogy while the latter directed comic book adaptations Kick-Ass and X-Men: First Class as well as Kingsman: The Secret Service and its upcoming sequel, Kingsman: The Golden Circle.
Today, the trade adds two names that should be very familiar to comic book movie fans: Sam Raimi and Matthew Vaughn.
Rick Famuyiwa was the second Flash director to exit the project, following Seth Grahame-Smith earlier last year.
