It is unknown thought how Batman fits in The Flash, but its first teaser revealed that he will have a significant role.

Why Michael Keaton's Batman Returns in The Flash
Michael Keaton's Batman makes a triumphant return to the DC Universe (DCU) in The Flash, and the trailer cements the idea that his comeback is more than just a cameo.
The Flash is also poised to pay tribute to what came before, as Keaton is wearing his Dark Knight costume from Tim Burton's Batman movies, using his iconic Batman voice, and gets to sport Danny Elfman's original Batman theme.
Based on what's been revealed so far, it looks like Ezra Miller's Flash is trapped in the world of Keaton's Batman, which they described as a "world without metahumans."
Given that Keaton's Dark Knight is already a veteran hero in this world and considering the Flash's close ties to Ben Affleck's Batman, it isn't surprising that Barry Allen will go out of his way to seek the assistance of Bruce Wayne.
Ultimately, the meeting between the two Barrys and Bruce will lead to the formation of a new Justice League that The Flash director Andy Muschietti already confirmed.
The action-packed trailer showed that Keaton's Batman is still an expert in combat, going through several mercenaries while also hinting at his ability to strategize during missions.
His abilities would prove valuable as the new Justice League will look to duke it out against a reborn General Zod (Michael Shannon) who's seeking to take Earth as his own.
The Flash is set to premiere in theaters on June 16.
