Many people believed DC wouldn't follow Marvel by integrating its movie and TV properties since different actors are cast as The Flash for the silver screen and small screen. However, the company's chief creative officer Geoff Johns insists a crossover is still possible. He goes on to confirm that there have been talks for such idea.

"We look at it as the multiverse," he told Buzzfeed. "We have our TV universe and our film universe, but they all co-exist. For us, creatively, it's about allowing everyone to make the best possible product, to tell the best story, to do the best world. Everyone has a vision and you really want to let the visions shine through. I think the characters are iconic enough."

"There's been discussions over the years for [a crossover between the shows and the movies], obviously," he continued. "You never say never. Maybe one day we'll link a show to a film if it makes sense, but the creative process we're going through right now is to let the stuff live and breathe and be its own thing and own it."

"We don't want to be policemen," he additionally said. "The last thing in the world that we want to do is say no to something. The best thing we can do is work with the producers and try to be additive and collaborative and try to figure out how to expand it."

Grant Gustin plays the title role on "The Flash" TV series, while Ezra Miller portrays the speedster in "The Flash" movie version. The other TV shows based on DC characters include "Arrow" and "Gotham".

On the big screen, there are "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" due March 25, 2016, "Suicide Squad" (2016), "Wonder Woman" (2017), "Justice League Part One" (2017), "The Flash" (2018), "Aquaman" (2018), "Shazam" (2019), "Justice League Part Two" in 2019, "Green Lantern (2020)", and "Cyborg" (2020).
