Warning: Spoiler Alert! An unexpected twist in The Flash cameo.
The surprise cameo in The Flash has left fans bewildered as it turns out that Teddy Sears wasn’t actually part of the movie after all, despite his striking resemblance to the Golden Age version of The Flash.
In a recent interview with TV Line, Sears revealed that it was not him portraying the iconic character in the film, although he acknowledged the similarities in appearance. “I mean… that looks like my likeness,” he commented. “But it isn’t actually me.”
This comes as a surprise to fans who know Sears for his role as Jay Garrick, the original 1940s version of The Flash, in the popular TV show of the same name.
The cameo in the new Flash movie features the unmistakable winged helmet of the Golden Age Flash, but it seems that Sears was not involved in the portrayal of the character. “People kept telling me that I was in the new Flash movie…,” Sears explained. “I’m pretty sure I would have remembered shooting a major DC Studios film, but my memory is a little foggy due to lack of sleep with a newborn at home.”
Speculation suggests that The Flash utilized CGI techniques or archive footage from the TV show for the cameo, but it has been confirmed that the generic representation of the Golden Age Flash was created through CGI and not Sears’ likeness. It’s a disappointment for Sears, who expressed regret about not appearing alongside DC heavyweights like Christopher Reeve and Adam West.
This revelation raises questions about the involvement of other actors in the movie’s CGI cameos. Were they genuinely part of the production or not?
