Fans of the DCEU are concerned over the incident involving Miller, and have sounded a very vocal call for the actor’s immediate removal from the upcoming solo film, which is to be directed by It helmer Andy Muschietti. Most feel that Grant Gustin, who has played Barry for six years on the Arrowverse series The Flash, is a better representative for the iconic character, and fans have taken to Twitter in droves to call for Miller’s removal. One user suggested that fans should set up a petition to get rid of Miller from the DCEU, saying fans should “breathe to sign” it.
Others opted to put a positive spin on the situation by looking at the actor playing the Flash on television rather than having a go at Miller. “After hearing all this Ezra Miller business, it got me thinking: It would be so dope if Grant Gustin played Flash in the DCEU. Just give him a movie-budget costume and a complete rewrite of his character, he’s perfect,” one fan tweeted.
Another added a similar suggestion: “Grant Gustin is talented, a dork, has the biggest heart, is the best Barry Allen and most importantly never attacked anyone, what are you all waiting to stan?” they tweeted.
Twitter account DR Movie News took that logic one step further, tweeting, “If there’s one positive to come out of that insane Ezra Miller video, it’s that Warner Brothers may finally have the chance to re-cast [them] & find someone GOOD to play Barry Allen/Flash for Muschietti’s solo-movie & have it be separate from the DCEU like The Batman.”
