Flash 2: The Fate of Ezra Miller's Role
The future of Ezra Miller's Flash remains uncertain as discussions continue on whether he will reprise his role in the potential sequel Director's loyalty towards Miller remains firm despite The Flash 2 not being officially given the green light
Director Andy Muschietti firmly believes that Ezra Miller is irreplaceable in the role of Barry Allen, the titular character in The Flash. Despite the movie's prolonged development process, it's finally set to hit theaters soon, and The Flash promises to bring a fresh take on the DC Universe with a mix of familiar and new faces. Although Ezra Miller's future with DC Studios has been uncertain due to legal issues, Muschietti maintains that if a sequel were to happen, he can't envision anyone else embodying the Scarlet Speedster but Miller. In an interview with The Playlist, Muschietti emphasized his unwavering confidence in Miller's ability to bring the character to life.
Who Decides Ezra Miller’s Flash Future?
If a sequel were to happen, there is no doubt that finding someone to portray the character as brilliantly as they did would be a challenge. While other interpretations of the character have been impressive, this particular portrayal was exceptional. The two actors who played the role seemed to have been born to play it, and their chemistry was undeniable.
Although Muschietti desires Miller's return in another installment of The Flash, the decision may not be solely up to the filmmaker. With a fresh vision for the DC Universe underway, alternate plans may require an altered version of the character, much like what is happening with Superman and Batman. Ultimately, the success of the movie may determine The Flash's future.
The future of Ezra Miller's involvement in future DC films remains uncertain, as it will ultimately be up to DC Studios and Warner Bros. Discovery to decide if they want him to reprise his role as the Flash. While Miller has not commented on his potential return to the franchise, the decision may ultimately lie in the success of the first film. Even if The Flash proves to be a hit, DC Studios may choose to focus on other characters in the refocused DC Universe, leaving the Scarlet Speedster on the bench for the time being. Fans can catch the first movie in theatres starting on June 16, while we wait to see what the future holds for the Flash and Miller's role in the franchise.
