Upgrading android studio broke my flutter build (macOS)

Question

Ive just upgraded my android studio and its broken my flutter build process. I now get this error trying to build previously working projects. My andriod studio setup at the end. Appreciate any help with this.

FAILURE: Build failed with an exception.

What went wrong:
Execution failed for task ':app:processDebugMainManifest'.
Unable to make field private final java.lang.String java.io.File.path accessible: module java.base does not "opens java.io" to unnamed module @4be5c282

Try:
Run with --stacktrace option to get the stack trace. Run with --info or --debug option to get more log output. Run with --scan to get full insights.
