The Flash will be released in theaters on June 19 and features a star-studded cast, including Michael Keaton, who will reprise the role of Batman after playing the character in 1989 and 1992.

Ezra Miller, who has recently faced criminal charges including robbery, assault and grooming, takes on the lead role of The Flash (aka Barry Allen) in the film.

Amid other issues, including production delays, new DC directors James Gunn and Peter Safran expressed high hopes for the feature in early January of this year. Earlier that month, Miller, who uses they/them pronouns, pleaded guilty to trespassing in Vermont.

During an interview with the hollywood reporter, Gunn said that the film is “probably one of the best superhero movies ever made.”

Safran stated that Ezra, ‘is completely committed to his recovery. We fully support the journey they are on right now.”

On the subject of whether Miller has the future of reprising the role again, he added: “When the time is right, when they’re ready to have that discussion, we’ll all figure out the best way forward.”

“But right now, they are completely focused on their recovery. And in our conversation with them, over the last couple of months, it feels like they’re making tremendous progress.’
