George Clooney has revealed why he won't be back for The Flash.

"They didn't ask me," Clooney told Variety. "When you destroy a franchise the way I did, usually they look the separate way when The Flash comes by."

Clooney marked Eastern Samoa Batman in Joel Schumacher's Batman & Robin, discharged in 1997. The film took a identical campy and comedic approach to the Caped Crusader, which didn't go fallen well with some viewers. Uma Therman co-starred American Samoa Poison Hedera helix, while Benedict Arnold Schwarzenegger played the puntastic Mr. Freeze, and Chris O'Donnell played Robin with Alicia Silverstone playing Batgirl.

"There are certain films I just rifle, 'I want my wife to have some respect for me,'" Clooney added, after Amal Clooney revealed her husband won't let her watch the movie.

The Flash sees the return of Ben Affleck as Batman, as well as Michael Keaton reprising his role from Tim Burton's '80s movies.

"IT was a lot of fun, I had a great time," Affleck recently told Variety of his clip shot The Flash. He added: "It was a really nice way to revisit that as the prior experience [Justice League] had been difficult."

The Flash is expected to carry inspiration from the Flashpoint humorous book story, which power saw the titular speedster Barry Allen accidentally destroy the timeline after traveling back in time to prevent his mother's end. Ezra Miller stars as Barry, spell Sasha Calle appears equally Supergirl, and Kiersey Clemons returns equally Iris West. Maribel Verdú plays Barry's mother Nora Gracie, and Ron Livingston replaces Nightstick Crudup as Joseph Henry Woody Allen due to programming conflicts.

The Flash arrives November 4, 2022. Until then, check out how to watch DC movies in order for the ultimate movie marathon.
