The first trailer for The Flash is here, and it looks like Barry Allen (Ezra Miller) is about to send the world spinning out of control.

In his attempts to save his mother's life, Barry creates paradox after paradox. He teams up with himself and Supergirl (Sasha Calle), creates a world where metahumans never existed, and has to save the world from total annihilation. But most importantly of all, he meets a new version of Batman (Michael Keaton, reprising the role from Tim Burton's 1989 and 1992 films).

Keaton's entrance, complete with his wry delivery of "I'm Batman," is an immediate slam dunk of hype. But the allegations and legal troubles against Miller still cast a troubling cloud over this film that no amount of nostalgia can overcome.

The Flash hits theaters June 15.
