Miller thanks the “dynamic duo,” DC co-chairs Peter Safran and James Gunn, for their “grace and discernment and care in the context of my life. And in bringing this moment actually into fruition.”
As we reported last August, the We Need To Talk About Kevin star first spoke publicly about their ongoing personal struggles, releasing a statement through their representative to Variety that said: “Having recently gone through a time of intense crisis, I now understand that I am suffering complex mental health issues and have begun ongoing treatment.” The statement continued, “I want to apologize to everyone that I have alarmed and upset with my past behavior. I am committed to doing the necessary work to get back to a healthy, safe and productive stage in my life.”
Miller’s Locked-In
Among Miller’s legal troubles and public allegations made against them were multiple arrests in Hawaii, grooming multiple girls, burglary, and being a cult leader. Despite the mounting allegations, Warner Bros. stood by the release of The Flash. Director Andy Muschietti also stood by his star, stating last May that he had no intention of replacing Miller in a possible sequel.
“I don’t think there’s anyone that can play that character as well as they did,” Muschietti said. “The other depictions of the character are great, but this particular vision of the character, they just excelled in doing it. And, as you said, the two Barrys—it feels like a character that was made for them.”
‘Flash’ Star Ezra Miller Arrested for Disorderly Conduct and Harassment
Ezra Miller, who stars in the upcoming DC film The Flash and April’s Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, was arrested by law enforcement in Hawaii yesterday morning (March 28). Miller was charged for disorderly conduct and harassment after an incident at a bar.
According to a post by the Hawaii County Police Department, officers responded to a report of a disorderly bar patron on Sunday night. Police determined that the agitator had become unruly while other patrons sang karaoke and had begun “yelling obscenities.” Miller, 29, then “grabbed the microphone from a 23-year-old woman singing karaoke and later lunged at a 32-year-old man playing darts.”
Miller was arrested and charged on offenses of disorderly conduct and harassment. Bail was set at $500, which Miller provided, with law enforcement subsequently releasing them from custody.

But y’all overlooked Ezra choking a woman out. pic.twitter.com/N0PDrkdicc

Miller will be playing Barry Allen, i.e. the Flash in the upcoming Flash film, which is set to hit theaters on June 23, 2023. After appearing in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Justice League and Zack Snyder’s Justice League, this will be Miller’s first solo film.
