The Flash: Overtime
WORKING TITLE: THE FLASH: SPEED TRAP
PART 1 OF 2
Synopsis
A coming-of-age superhero story rebuilt around Barry’s first year as The Flash. Less romance. Fewer detours. As The Flash learns to balance his two lives, he’s ultimately forced to face the demon of his past.
Editor's Note The Flash S01 has always been my favorite era of the series, but I felt its larger story was often buried beneath episodic television. Overtime became my attempt to reshape that first year into a focused coming-of-age superhero film, centered on Barry learning to balance two lives. I reshaped the Reverse-Flash mystery around Barry’s perspective, letting Wells feel like a genuine mentor before his true nature is revealed.
