How to watch The Flash – is it streaming?

Here’s how to watch The Flash and if and when it’ll be available on streaming, as well as its 4K and Blu-ray release details.

Development on The Flash first began in the 1980s. Scripts came and went, directors fell away, and it’s taken the best part of 40 years for the movie to make it to the big screen.

The movie, which essentially closes the book on the SnyderVerse before James Gunn and Peter Safran’s DCU reboot, follows Barry Allen (Ezra Miller) after he travels in time to save his mother’s life, only to break the universe and meet another version of himself, as well as Supergirl (Sasha Calle) and Batman (Michael Keaton).

Its box office performance has been abysmal, so here’s when and how to watch it at home on streaming.

The Flash will be available to stream on Max from August 25.

The movie is also available for “premium digital ownership”, as well as PVOD rental on platforms like Amazon Prime.
