THE FLASH Production Designer Believes "People Will Forget" Ezra Miller's Behaviour When They See The Movie

During a new interview, The Flash production designer voiced what we're pretty sure everyone at Warner Bros. is hoping: The movie will be so good that everyone will forget about Ezra Miller's behaviour!

By all accounts, The Flash is a pretty good movie. Is it one of the "greatest superhero movies of all time," as many at Warner Bros. Discovery have been proclaiming it? Based on the reviews, it sounds like they might have been overselling it just a little - but it's difficult to blame them for trying to put as positive a spin on the film as possible under the circumstances.

Star Ezra Miller's behaviour has obviously led to a lot of negative press, with many wondering why the studio hasn't severed ties with the troubled actor. Miller did release a statement apologizing for their actions and promising to get the help they need, but for many, their alleged crimes - which include child endangerment - are simply too despicable to forgive.

During an interview with CBC, production designer Paul Austerberry praised Miller's committed performance, and said he believes "people will forget" about their behaviour once they see the movie.

We're not so sure about that - but it is true that general audiences may not know enough about the situation to be dissuaded from seeing the movie.

If The Flash is as big a hit as WBD and DC Studios are hoping, you can expect Miller to stick around as the Fastest Man Alive in the DCU.

What do you guys think? Would you be okay with Miller staying on as The Flash going forward? You can take another look at the new trailer below.

"Directed by Andy Muschietti, The Flash features Barry Allen traveling back in time in order to change events of the past. But when his attempt to save his family inadvertently alters the future, Barry becomes trapped in a reality in which General Zod has returned, threatening annihilation, and there are no Super Heroes to help. That is, unless Barry can coax a very different Batman out of retirement and rescue an imprisoned Kryptonian…albeit not the one he’s looking for.

Ultimately, to save the world that he is in and return to the future that he knows, Barry’s only hope is to race for his life. But will making the ultimate sacrifice be enough to reset the universe?"

The Flash is produced by Barbara Muschietti and Michael Disco, with a screenplay by Christina Hodson, an a screen story by John Francis Daley & Jonathan Goldstein and Joby Harold, based on characters from DC. Warner Bros. Pictures presents a Double Dream/a Disco Factory production of an Andy Muschietti film.

The Flash will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures and is set to open in theaters in North America on June 16, 2023 and internationally beginning 14 June 2023.

@SpideyPuffsMJ - absolutely not. And nobody will forget. BUT it also won't effect his career in any way if money can still be milked.

Once he stops being milkable, he will drop off and become dangerous again.

But Hollywood doesn't care. Majors would 100% still be Kang if people LOVED him in Quantumansjudbdja.

Now that the advance viewers from Cinema Con have been rolling back the "best cbm ever" hyperbole, I predict this will suffer and flop from the same indifferent marketing that Shazam 2 had.

@SpideyPuffsMJ - The whole time I'm watching the trailer for it I'm thinking... " Did he commit those crimes in a Flash??" This dude is literally the bad guy in this movie regardless of what hero he's playing on the screen.

The only people who will forget is the people who didn't know anything about it in the first place.

I know Hollywood has been corrupt but this is some bold and vile shit to say. And on the other side of things, what an awful PR move. Why even say this? Could’ve kept it to yourself because it’s not gonna help.

@GhostDog - Their whole tac on thing is so out of touch. Muschietti talking about what a great guy and a great actor Ezra is at Cinemacon, James Gunn's "Wait and see" approach (basically telling us that if we pay to see this picture, we're voting for Ezra to stay on as The Flash) and now this, smh.

This is not the way to sell the movie!

At this point I wouldn't be surprised if Ezra was actually on the press tour. Don't they realise they're turning people off?! After those two trailers the hype for the movie went through the roof but every time they make us stare at the psychotic elephant in the room it kills the hype dead.

It's like telling a child that the burger they're enjoying is a dead animal.

@ObserverIO - they’re so ignorant and act like the audience and/or those who are tuned into what Ezra did are dumb.

Or they’re willfully ignorant in the sense that they think this will go away if they cross their fingers and hope. But the way they comment about Ezra is so ridiculous. People aren’t stupid.
