🏃♂️⚡️Ezra Miller Isn’t Going Anywhere: To Flash or Not to Flash, That’s the Sequel Question! 🎥🍿
TL:DR;
Ezra Miller’s lightning-fast run as The Flash isn’t expected to end anytime soon if director Andy Muschietti has his way. Despite Miller’s whirlwind of legal troubles and allegations, Muschietti is standing firm on his belief that nobody can play the character better. The plot thickens, though. Whether or not there’s a sequel to the recently wrapped up “The Flash” is as uncertain as the path of a stray bolt of lightning.🌩️⏳
A lot can happen in a flash, but one thing that doesn’t seem to be changing in the speed of light is Ezra Miller’s position as The Flash. But should it? 🤔 Director Andy Muschietti is all set to place his bet on Miller despite the actor’s history of alleged abuse and legal entanglements. The real question is, are we ready to see a sequel with the same face of the superhero character?
For Muschietti, Miller’s portrayal of the iconic speedster has been nothing short of extraordinary. He’s even gone on record saying, “I don’t think there’s anyone that can play that character as well as they did.” And apparently, his sister and “The Flash” producer, Barbara Muschietti, couldn’t agree more, describing Miller as “brilliant,” “committed,” and “professional.” Hey, who can argue with sibling solidarity, right? 🤷♂️
However, Ezra’s quick pace on screen has been shadowed by his not-so-glitzy off-screen antics. A few highlights include a charge of felony burglary in Vermont, a controversial recorded altercation outside an Iceland bar, and not one, but two arrests in Hawaii. That’s a lot of drama for a man in a red suit, don’t you think?🎭
Addressing the issues, Miller said they’re seeking treatment for “complex mental health issues,” and apologized for causing distress with past behavior. It’s great to see Miller taking responsibility, but can actions indeed speak louder than words in this case? 🤔
Now, before you start calculating the odds of a sequel, know this: The future of “The Flash” franchise lies in the hands of DC Studios’ new leadership, James Gunn and Peter Safran. The two have remained tight-lipped about the sequel, but Safran has made it clear that Miller’s role is dependent on their continued recovery.🔄🔄🔄
As we await the big release of “The Flash” on June 16, Paul Austerberry, the film’s production designer, opined that most moviegoers would “forget” Miller’s history by the time the movie opened. Is that so, though? Will the audience’s love for the film overshadow the personal controversies of its star?🎬🍿
In this age of cancel culture, where does Miller’s story fit? And as we collectively choose to root for or against him, one question lingers: To flash or not to flash, that’s the sequel question! So, what’s your take? Can you see a sequel without Ezra Miller, or is he your one and only Flash? ⚡️🏃♂️
