SPOILER WARNING: The Warner Bros. Pictures film The Flash is being discussed in this post.
The Flash is currently speeding onto movie screens, and considering the box office, it might be speeding out of theaters just as fast, but there is one particular thing that fans of The Flash TV series have been wondering: Did we see a cameo of Teddy Sears as Jay Garrick in The Flash movie?
The answer is: No. TVLine did their due diligence in finding out from Sears himself what is going on.
“People kept telling me that I was in the new Flash movie…,” Sears told TVLine in an article posted on their website. “I mean, I’m sleep-deprived with a newborn at home, so my memory is a little foggy. But I’m pretty sure I would have remembered shooting a major DC Studios film.”
“Sadly, I’m not in this,” he continued. He did acknowledge that the likeness does look like him.
There are some other cameos – sadly, not Grant Gustin or John Wesley Shipp, either. The movie is currently playing in theaters worldwide. As for Teddy Sears? Look for him in the DC Animated feature Justice League: Warworld where he will voice Travis Morgan, a.k.a. The Warlord. That comes out in July.

The Flash is a clean cut, shorten hair, clean shaven character. Just looking at Ezra Miller he is the complete opposite of that. He is a bad idea for playing the part. I would at least look for someone who is well groomed and has a clean cut appearance like Grant Gustin does. If they don’t get the Flash correct then that could be a huge mistake and cause the movie to tank since so many people enjoy the tv series. When making a movie and getting a character correct every detail is very important. I really hope the person in charge makes the right choice and doesn’t choose Ezra Miller.
