BURBANK, CA (April 17, 2013) – The world is turned upside down as one
of earth’s greatest super heroes – Flash – wakes up devoid of his
super powers in the all-new Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox –
the next entry in the popular, ongoing series of DC Universe Original
Animated Movies. Produced by DC Entertainment and Warner Bros.
Animation, this all-new, PG-13 rated film arrives July 30, 2013 from
Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on Blu-Ray™ Combo Pack ($24.98 SRP),
DVD ($19.98 SRP) and Digital Download. The Blu-ray™ Combo Pack will
include UltraViolet™*.
When time travel allows a past wrong to be righted for Flash and his
family, the event’s temporal ripples prove disastrous, creating a
fractured, alternate reality where the Justice League never formed,
and even Superman is nowhere to be found. Amidst a new world being
ravaged by a fierce war between Wonder Woman’s Amazons and Aquaman’s
Atlanteans, Flash must team with a grittier, more violent Batman and
government agent Cyborg to restore the continuity of Flash’s original
timeline.
“Justice League: The Flashpoint Paradox has all the elements of
another great film – dynamic forceful villains, treacherous twists and
turns and internal tensions amongst heroes,” said Mary Ellen Thomas,
Warner Home Video Vice President, Family, Animation and Partner Brands
Marketing. “Showcasing a cast that brings together some of today’s
popular primetime television actors with many fans’ favorite voices
from the original series, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment is proud to
release this title as the next DC Universe Animated Original Movie.”
Primetime television stars Justin Chambers (Grey’s Anatomy) and Kevin
McKidd (Grey’s Anatomy), the voices of Barry Allen/Flash and Thomas
Wayne/Batman, respectively, unite with numerous greats of television
and film to fashion the famed animated roles. Adding to the
celebrity-laden voice cast and providing thrilling additions to the
Justice League series are Michael B. Jordan (Fruitvale, Friday Night
Lights, Chronicle) as Cyborg, C. Thomas Howell (Southland, The
Outsiders) as Thawne/Professor Zoom, Nathan Fillion (Castle) as Hal
Jordan/Green Lantern, Ron Perlman (Hellboy) as Slade and Deathstroke,
Dana Delany (Body of Proof) as Lois Lane, Cary Elwes (The Princess
Bride) as Aquaman, Danny Huston (Magic City) as General Lane, Sam Daly
(The Office, The Daly Show) as Superman, and Kevin Conroy (Batman: The
Animated Series) as Batman.
Screenwriter Jim Krieg delivers an action-packed vision of the
legendary comic book miniseries FLASHPOINT, by Geoff Johns & Andy
Kubert, adding to the over 13 million DC Universe video units produced
to date. Jay Oliva (Batman: The Dark Knight Returns) is director and
