Miller stars as Barry Allen-The Flash in the film, which has been testing well with audiences and which DC Studios co-chair has called “probably one of the greatest superhero movies ever made.”

But the project has lived under the shadow of Miller, who has generated a string of headlines surrounding various arrests and controversies. Miller apologized August 15, 2022 and in statement said they were seeking help for mental health.

Later that month, he met with new Warner film bosses Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy to discuss a path forward for the project, which had already completed filming. In January, DC Studios co-chair Peter Safran told reporters of the possibility of the actor reprising the role in the future: “Ezra is completely committed to their recovery. We are fully supportive of that journey they are on right now. When the time is right, when they are ready to have that discussion, we will all figure out what’s the best path forward.”

The project also stars Michael Keaton, back as Batman for the first time since 1992, as well as Ben Affleck, also playing a version of Batman. It will also introduce Sasha Calle as Supergirl.
