Barry Allen 2.0 has a few things to say about the upcoming 'The Flash' movie!
Ezra Miller recently spoke to EW, where he was asked how his version of the Scarlet Speedster will be different from Grant Gustin's take on Barry Allen in The CW's 'The Flash' TV series.
"Well, [first] it's going to be a movie," Miller said. "I'd like for it to be an exploration of a human being, a multi-dimensional human being, to speak. Wow, I just made such a pun, without meaning to!"
So yes, Barry Allen is fast enough to travel several dimensions, but could he also be a multi-dimensional character?
"I'd like the character to have many dimensions," Miller continued. "But really, I'd like him to have the usual dimensions we know and love, and then some extra ones that are part of the amazing consideration of this superhero. I hope to realize him as a person, and I think what's most exciting for me in superhero mythologies is when we feel the humanity of someone who is heroic - or the heroism of someone who is a flawed, deeply human person."
It sounds like Ezra Miller is suggesting that the big screen version of Barry Allen is going to be a more tragic character compared to the confident one who appears in the CW TV series. However, 'The Flash' movie is still a long way before it begins production so there may be room for improvement.
In addition to playing the Fastest Man Alive on the silver screen, Ezra Miller is already gearing up to play a mysterious character in 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them." Although he was previously credited as "Kredan," the true identity of Ezra Miller's character in the film is actually "Credence."
'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them' will premiere on November 18, 2016 while 'The Flash' movie is scheduled for release on March 23, 2018.
