''Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'' (2016)

The Flash's first appearance in the DCEU happened in '' Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'' where the character made two small appearances. He first appears in a nightmare sequence showing up in the Batcave, wearing a futuristic armor version of his classic costume, in order to warn Bruce Wayne of an upcoming threat. Although the scene is left for interpretation, with Flash stating that Lois is the key and that Bruce was right about "him" mixed in with a frustrated realization that he is "too soon", it indicates a possible post-apocalyptic future which the character is trying to prevent. He is later seen again, this time in the "real world" and in the present day when Wonder Woman is going through the recorded footage of several metahuman sightings. He appears in a liquor store's security camera footage, wearing his normal civilian clothes, stopping a burglar.

''. Barry Allen/The Flash is reduced to being a minor player in the 2017 theatrical version of Justice League with the character (along with Cyborg played by Ray Fisher) although he does resurrect Superman by charging a Mother Box which had been placed next to Superman's body which was placed in fluid inside the Kryptonian ship (which had crashed during the events of Man of Steel). In the theatrical version The Flash is used as the comic relief for the film and is shown to be intimidated of going into battle. In the theatrical version Flash and Superman are sent on sidequest to save civilians in Russia from Steppenwolf's forces. Flash manages to save one family in a pick truck before rejoining the other members of the Justice League at Steppenwolff's where he is easily knocked to ground by Steppenwolf before the other members of the Justice League manage to defeat the villain. In the 'Snyder Cut' of the film (released in 2021) the Flash whilst still eccentric is shown to be much more battle hardened than the theatrical version. This version also hints Barry's developing affection for Iris West whom he saves from a near fatal collision using his ability to reverse time. As in the theatrical version Barry helps charge to Mother Box to resurrect Superman but in this version Barry is forced to slightly reverse time due to having initially slightly mistimed his run so the electric current he is producing makes contact with Mother Box before the box makes contact with the fluid inside the Kryptonian ship. The biggest change for Flash between versions is in the final battle in version Flash must create enough electric current to help

''Unlimited Powers''

''Unlimited Powers'' was a cancelled TV pilot for CBS written by Danny Bilson and Paul De Meo, the writers of the eventual 90s Flash series. In a story possibly inspired by ''Watchmen'', the plot would have revolved around Barry Allen escaping a fifteen-year prison sentence suspended in animation. He would find that in the future, superpowers are outlawed on Earth. Every superhero has fallen from grace (Wonder Woman working at a fast-food joint, Dr. Occult working as a psychic, Hal Jordan living on the streets, etc.), including his once-sidekick Wally West (now a middle-aged businessman). Barry finds his powers fatigued when he uses them, his age is catching up with him, and he is now a wanted man. Running the government would be Icicle (comics), Joar Mahkent (secretly himself a super-powered being), and his companion, Catwoman, Selina Kyle, who are unfazed by the Flash's return. Barry suspects that villains are running the world politically, and teams up with Green Arrow, Oliver Queen's teenage daughter to recruit the now retired heroes in an attempt to stop Mahkent once and for all.

''The Flash'' (1990–1991)

''The Flash (1990 TV series), The Flash'' was a live action television series on CBS that starred John Wesley Shipp and Amanda Pays. The Flash featured in the series was an amalgamation of the silver-age Flash, Barry Allen, and the modern-age Wally West. The only resemblance between the TV Barry Allen Flash and the comic book Barry Allen Flash were his name, his profession as a forensic scientist, and his love interest Iris West played by Paula Marshall (who was very short lived as a love interest in the television series). In this version, while working as police detective, Barry was working in the crime lab at the Central City Police Department headquarters one night when a lightning bolt struck his lab, dousing him in electricity and nearby chemicals which soon gave him the ability to run at superhuman speeds, just like in the comics. The series also included and featured an older brother for Barry named Jay Allen (named after Jay Garrick the original Flash) who was also a police officer and a motorcycle cop. Jay was killed in the line of duty by a criminal gang leader named Nicholas Pike. After that, Barry donned a special red prototype deep sea diving-suit from Russia designed to withstand friction and pressure, and called himself the Flash. By using his new costume and powers, Barry captured Pike and brought him to justice. From then on, Barry used his identity as Flash to help bring down other criminals in Central City. He became a hero full-time. Most of the elements in the television show were taken directly from the main story line in the first Wally West Flash comic books: The S.T.A.R. Labs researcher Tina McGee, she and her husband's research into speed, her husband's allegedly fatal accident with their speed research, the Flash's ravenous appetite, heat problems (which were mitigated by the TV show's Flash suit), and speed limit on the order of the speed of sound were all elements from the main Wally West comic book storyline. The Flash's most famous villain in the series was the Trickster (comics), Trickster, played by Mark Hamill, who later went on to voice the Joker (comics), Joker in ''Batman: The Animated Series'' and, later, the Trickster in ''Justice League Unlimited''. Captain Cold, played by Michael Champion, and Mirror Master, played by David Cassidy, also appeared in their own episodes. The complete series was released as a DVD set by Warner Bros. in 2006. The ''Flash TV Special'' #1 comic introduced a variation on Kid Flash. This particular version of the character was a teenage thief named Vince Everett. Unlike the Flash, his powers did not require eating to replenish. His speed is pushed to the limit as he chases the Flash through an amusement park, eventually burning out his powers. Shipp later returned to the Flash franchise twenty years after the series' cancellation; first in an episode of ''Batman: The Brave and the Bold'', titled "Requiem for a Scarlet Speedster!” voicing Professor Zoom, and later in recurring roles as Barry's father Henry Allen and Henry's parallel universe counterpart Jay Garrick in The CW's ''

''. An image of Shipp's Flash appears on an episode of ''The Flash'' (2014), as Earth-Two, Earth-2 Harrison Wells, Cisco Ramon (Arrowverse), Cisco Ramon and Barry travel through the Arrowverse multiverse to get to Earth-2. This makes this series a part of the

as a different universe.

''Justice League of America'' pilot (1997)

The Barry Allen incarnation of Flash appears in ''Justice League of America (film), Justice League of America'', portrayed by Kenny Johnston.

''Smallville''

Bart Allen made guest appearances in the television series ''Smallville'', in the fourth-season episode "Smallville season 4#Run, Run" (first aired October 20, 2004), and in the sixth season in the episode "Smallville season 6#Justice, Justice" (first aired on January 18, 2007). He is played by Kyle Gallner. He is portrayed as a self-centered teenager who uses his powers for personal gain. He goes by the name Bart Allen, but he is shown to be carrying multiple ID cards also identifying him as "Flash (Jay Garrick), Jay Garrick", "Barry Allen", and "Wally West". His speed is depicted as being well in excess of that of Clark. Not only is he able to run backward and match Clark's top speed, but is able to run fast enough that Clark, even moving at top speed, cannot follow his movements. Their mutual respect made it apparent that they had become friends towards the end (as Superman and Flash are good friends in the future), with allusions being made to forming a "Justice League (Smallville), league" one day. It is mentioned that he got his powers through an accident, rather than genetics as in the comics, although at least one of the Flashes has gotten his powers through an accident. This incarnation of the Flash is also one of the few superpowered characters on ''Smallville'' who is not a "Meteor Freak", meaning they have not acquired their powers through Kryptonite-related means via one of Smallville's infamous meteor showers. Although commercials for "Run" billed him as "the Flash", he is never called by this name in the episode. Instead, in "Justice", he has been given the codename "Impulse". Like in the comics, Bart did not pick this name himself. In his second appearance with Green Arrow (Smallville), Green Arrow/Oliver Queen's Justice League (Smallville), Team, Bart has matured somewhat, but he maintained roughly the same personality. However, he is now using his powers to help others along with Aquaman, Green Arrow, Cyborg (comics), Cyborg and later, Black Canary, this group works to stop one of Lex Luthor's evil side projects, 33.1. Kyle Gallner reprises his role as Impulse for a final time in the Smallville season 8, season eight finale, "Doomsday". The character's presence continues to be felt thereafter, though he does not directly feature. For example, in the ninth-season episode "Smallville season 9#Absolute Justice, Absolute Justice", the Golden Age Flash, Jay Garrick, is seen in flashbacks, getting arrested with the other Justice Society members. Impulse appeared in two additional episodes; a still frame of Kyle Gallner from earlier seasons was used to give the appearance that Bart was attending a Justice League meeting via videoscreen in the season 9 finale, "Salvation". The character is also present in the season 10 episode "Icarus" at the funeral of Hawkman (Carter Hall), Carter Hall, but his face is not shown. In the series' penultimate episode, villains are assembled and are each given a hero to kill. Bart is given to Captain Cold. The character later features prominently in the Smallville season 11, comic book continuation to the TV series with Bart meeting Garrick and facing the Black Flash resulting in his death, thrusting Jay back in the role as mentor to younger heroes called "Titans". At one point, there was a consideration for ''Smallville'' spin-off starring Bart Allen, but it never came to fruition.

''The Flash'' (unproduced The WB series)

In 2003, Warner Bros. was planning a ''Flash'' TV series with Todd Komarnicki signed on to write and executive produce it. Inspired by the 1960s science fiction drama ''The Time Tunnel'', the series would have been a loose adaptation of the Flash, depicting him as a fresh-out-of-college Gotham City resident who uses his powers to travel backwards and forwards in time, going on missions. As with ''Smallville'', the series would have eschewed superhero costumes altogether. According to writer Steven S. DeKnight, who was the writer for ''Smallville'', there were creative differences over how a Flash television series should be handled, given the The Flash (1990 TV series), previous attempt at translating the character to the small screen in 1990, and that the studio wanted to create a Flash who was a "time-traveling college student from Gotham City". As a result, the series never materialized, and the character was ultimately brought to ''Smallville''.

Arrowverse

On July 30, 2013, it was announced that ''Arrow (TV series), Arrow'' co-creators Greg Berlanti and Andrew Kreisberg, and ''Arrow'' pilot director David Nutter and

, would develop a Flash TV series for CW Television Network, The CW. The series would be the origin story of Barry Allen. Kreisberg revealed after the announcement, that Allen would be a recurring character on ''Arrow'' in three episodes of season 2, all written by Berlanti, Kreisberg and Johns, and that the last of the episodes will act as a backdoor pilot. On September 13, 2013, Grant Gustin was chosen to portray Allen. In November 2013, it was announced that the third appearance of Allen on ''Arrow'' would no longer be a backdoor pilot, with the studio opting to make a traditional pilot instead. By doing so, it allowed the creative team to flesh out the Flash's story and his world on a bigger budget, instead of being constrained to incorporating ''Arrow'' characters within a backdoor pilot. The decision was made after CW executives saw material from Barry Allen's first two episodes on ''Arrow'', which were very well received. The pilot was written by Berlanti, Kreisberg and Johns, directed by Nutter, and executive produced by Berlanti, Kreisberg, Nutter and Melissa Kellner Berman. The show would still be tied to ''Arrow'', since that is where Barry Allen made his first appearance. On January 29, 2014, ''The Flash'' was officially ordered for a pilot episode. Both Jay Garrick and Wally West II, Wally West later appear in season 2, with John Wesley Shipp as Garrick, from Earth-3. and Keiynan Lonsdale as Wally. Shipp later reprises his role as Barry Allen / The Flash from the The Flash (1990 TV series), 1990 television series in the crossover "Elseworlds (Arrowverse), Elseworlds," retroactively establishing this iteration of the superhero as an Earth-90 counterpart of Jay Garrick and Earth-1 Barry's father Henry Allen.

reprised their role as the DC Extended Universe, DCEU version of Barry Allen in the "Crisis on Infinite Earths (Arrowverse), Crisis on Infinite Earths" Arrowverse crossover.

''Supergirl''

On February 3, 2016, it was announced that Gustin would appear on the ''Supergirl (TV series), Supergirl'' episode "Worlds Finest", due to ''Supergirl'' existing in the Arrowverse multiverse. In the episode, Barry travels to Supergirl's Earth by accident, allying with her to find a way back to his Earth and defeat the new 'alliance' of supervillains Livewire (DC Comics), Livewire and Silver Banshee.

''Stargirl''

''Stargirl (TV series), Stargirl'' features Flash (Jay Garrick), Jay Garrick as one of the original members of the Justice Society of America. He is played by an unknown actor in season 1, and by John Wesley Shipp in season 2 onward. He dies offscreen in the series pilot in a battle with the Injustice Society, ice on his discarded helmet suggests Icicle murdered him. His helmet and a banner of his profile are stored at the JSA Headquarters long after his death. Flashbacks in season 2 show Jay attending the funeral of Doctor Mid-Nite's daughter after she was killed by Eclipso. Once the JSA learn that to defeat Eclipso involves killing his host, several members vote whether to take this action. Jay votes against the motion, not content with taking a life. This action is implied to be the reason the JSA lost to the Injustice Society years later. In the finale of season 3, Jay is revealed to be alive and appears out of a portal, destroying the team meeting table to talk with Shade (character), Shade. He instructs the Shade to gather the new generation of the JSA together to go on another adventure.
