If you’re a fan of “The Flash” and you’ve kept up with the series then you’ve seen your fair share of speedsters over the past few years. From Barry Allen, to Jay Garrick, to Jesse Quick, to Zoom, Savitar and Reverse Flash, the Speed Force certainly has a strong presence on the small screen.

Over the next few years the Speed Force will be more prominent on the big screen, because Ezra Miller will be playing the Scarlet Speedster in “Justice League” and “Flashpoint.” John Wesley Shipp knows a thing or two about playing a speedster, as he played Barry Allen in the 90s, and he currently appears on “The Flash” as Jay Garrick. Shipp recently participated in a panel at Dragon Con, and he shared his thoughts on Ezra Miller bringing The Flash to the big screen.
“The Flash” star seems to be supportive of his fellow speedster and according to Jeff Grantz of HeroicHollywood.com, he told the crowd that the “Speed Force is big enough for all of us.”

Ezra Miller seems to have the support of the speedster community as Grant Gustin has said that he’s excited to see what Miller does with the character. We’ll find out when “Justice League” arrives in theaters in November.
“The Flash” season 4 will premiere on Tuesday, October 10.
Barry Allen (Grant Gustin) lived a normal life as a perpetually tardy C.S.I. in the Central City Police Department. Barry’s life changed forever when the S.T.A.R. Labs Particle Accelerator exploded, creating a dark-matter lightning storm that struck Barry, bestowing him with super-speed and making him the fastest man alive — The Flash. But when Barry used his extraordinary abilities to travel back in time and save his mother’s life, he inadvertently created an alternate timeline known as Flashpoint; a phenomenon that gave birth to the villainous speed god known as Savitar, and changed the lives of Caitlin Snow (Danielle Panabaker) and Wally West (Keiyan Lonsdale) forever.
With the help of his adoptive father, Joe West (Jesse L. Martin), his lifelong best friend and love interest Iris West (Candice Patton), and his friends at S.T.A.R. Labs — Cisco Ramon (Carlos Valdes), C.S.I Julian Albert (Tom Felton), and an Earth-19 novelist named H.R. Wells (Tom Cavanaugh) — Barry continues to protect the people of Central City from the meta-humans that threaten it.
Based on the characters from DC, THE FLASH is from Bonanza Productions Inc. in association with Berlanti Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with executive producers Greg Berlanti (“Arrow,” “Supergirl”), Andrew Kreisberg (“Arrow,” “The Flash”), Sarah Schechter (“Arrow,” “DC’s Legends of Tomorrow”) and Todd Helbing (“Black Sails”).
