Saoirse-Monica Jackson teased DC’s upcoming movie, the flash, claiming that the public will be “soufflé” by by Ezra Miller performance in the titular role.

Fans and critics alike were thrilled when Miller – who uses the pronouns they/them – first appeared in a cameo as Barry Allen in batman versus supermanand later appeared in the lead role in 2017 Justice League. Critics also say that, as The Flash, Miller is simply bliss. Their Barry Allen is young and innocent, thrust into a superhero world and still relishing in childlike wonder.
What should we expect from the flash?
Although Miller may not have had much screen time in batman versus superman like The Flash, audiences more than enjoyed playing the role of Barry Allen in Justice League. The fascination Miller brought to his position as a speedster more than made up for the film’s lackluster reviews. But due to Miller’s recent controversies in recent years, there were rumors that the movie might not see the light of day. But thankfully, Warner Bros. CEO David Zaslav maintains his faith in the project.
