The body double didn’t wear a cape in these scenes, unlike a sequence shot on Tuesday.

The front of the motorbike features a unique two-wheel design, replicating the iconic Batcycle design from the famous comics.
The Flash is the latest film to be shot in Glasgow after the city was recently transformed into 1960s New York for filming of Indiana Jones 5 where Harrison Ford’s body double was seen earlier this month.

Michael Keaton has already been spotted filming in London but has yet to be seen sporting his Batman costume, implying he may only be returning as alter ego Bruce Wayne.
Ben, who played Batman more recently, has yet to be seen on set.
The film sees The Flash travel back in time to prevent the murder of his mother, triggering a string of unexpected consequences in the process, including meeting Batman in a parallel dimension.
The Flash was originally scheduled for release in 2018, although it was later pushed back due to its troubled development process.

Muschietti’s photo showed Batman’s iconic insignia that is typically placed on the center of the character’s costume.
A few drops of what appeared to be blood were notably spattered across its front.
