Following the theatrical release of The Flash, it has been revealed that the latest DC Studios movie featured lots of superhero cameos of previous actors who had been a part of the DC franchise. One of these character appearances is Jay Garrick/Golden Age Flash, who’s apparently the version portrayed by Chicago Fire actor Teddy Sears from The CW’s The Flash series.
However, Sears quickly addressed his supposed The Flash cameo, confirming that he didn’t shoot any scenes for the Ezra Miller-led movie. Speaking with TVLine, Sears revealed that even though the said cameo “looks like my [his] likeness,” he has not signed on to be a part of the film.
“People kept telling me that I was in the new Flash movie…,” Sears said. “I mean, I’m sleep-deprived with a newborn at home, so my memory is a little foggy. But I’m pretty sure I would have remembered shooting a major DC Studios film. Sadly, I’m not in this.”
