The Flash director says the film failed because people ‘don’t care’ about the DC hero

Andy Muschietti, the director of 'The Flash', stated the film failed because it didn't appeal to all four quadrants of moviegoers.
'The Flash' had a worldwide box office total of $271 million against a budget of over $200 million, marking it as a commercial failure.
Muschietti noted that the film's failure was influenced by factors like a poor script and the controversial behavior of lead actor Ezra Miller.
Despite the failure of 'The Flash', Muschietti will direct another DC film, 'The Brave and the Bold', which is currently in production.
