‘The Flash': Ron Livingston to Play Henry Allen in Superhero Movie

Ron Livingston will portray Henry Allen, the father of Ezra Miller’s Barry Allen in “The Flash” standalone movie, according to an individual with knowledge of the project.

Livingston replaces Billy Crudup who departed the role due to scheduling conflicts for the second season of Apple TV Plus drama “The Morning Show.” In addition, Ian Loh is also joining the cast and will portray young Barry Allen.

Spanish actress Maribel Verdú — best known for her roles in Alfonso Cuaron’s “Y Tu Mama Tambien” and Guillermo del Toro’s “Pan’s Labyrinth” — is set play Nora Allen, the mother of Ezra Miller’s Barry Allen.
