Kiersey Clemons is officially playing Iris West in the Flash movie
Though Ezra Miller’s Flash made his official big-screen debut in Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, we finally got a proper introduction to the (new) Scarlet Speedster in the footage from the Justice League movie that director Zack Snyder released during Comic-Con. Now, we’re getting an introduction to one of The Flash’s most important supporting characters as well, with Variety reporting that Dope’s Kiersey Clemons will officially be playing Iris West, the film’s female lead. Much like in the Flash TV series (where she’s playing by Candice Patton), the movie Iris will reportedly be a “tough-as-nails journalist and friend of Barry Allen, the Flash’s alter ego.” Hopefully movie Iris will realize that Barry is the Flash a little quicker than TV Iris did, though.
