The superhero genre of the film industry has been thriving for well over a decade now, with various franchises firmly established in Hollywood. DC and Marvel alike have made enormous amounts of money off of their popular heroes and with the genre so explosively popular, both comic companies are rolling out some lesser-known characters and story lines. And as a part of this second wave of hero films on the horizon, DC will reportedly unleash The Flash on cinematic audiences in 2016.
Some comic enthusiasts may cringe at the notion that The Flash belongs to any sort of second tier of elite superheroes. However, the fact is to wider audiences, the character is at least somewhat lesser known than the likes of Batman or Superman, or any of Marvel’s signature characters. For those who pay close attention to pop culture and the entertainment industry, though, The Flash has already started creeping slowly but surely onto the modern stage.
The Imitation Game stars Benedict Cumberbatch as the late Alan Turing, the mathmetician and logician who cracked the Enigma code, which led to the defeat of the Germans in World War II, but who was persecuted for his homosexuality and then went on to eat a poisoned apple, thus taking his own life.
