The Flash was originally given a summer 2016 release, before script writing and directorial duties were shoved back and forth between writers and directors at a dizzying pace.

DC studios has been criticized for working with someone like Ezra Miller, who has a controversial history. Fans demand action against Miller.

It can be speculated that the overall performance of Miller’s upcoming movie may get affected despite the promising trailer. A tweet went viral which depicted Miller behind the bars in the post-credit scenes of The Flash. Miller admitted that all their past actions were a result of their complex mental health. The guardians of the teenager filed a restraining order against Miller because the actor exploited the teen through “cult-like and psychologically manipulative, controlling behavior.” That’s not it, as another woman from Massachusetts was also provided with temporary security from the star who misbehaved with her 12-year-old minor. In an effort to defend themselves, the star accepted the less serious crime of trespassing. Miller has shocked the entire world with the constant scandals whose intensity kept on increasing over time.

Angry fans slammed WB for its continued hypocrisy in allowing Ezra Miller to be in 'The Flash' while signing off with actors like Johnny Depp.

Instead, it will debut during the 2023 Super Bowl, when major other films release their eagerly anticipated trailers. Like as a big flash comic fan i wanna be really excited but I'm disappointed by this. They havent had much luck with avoiding scandal and internal dramas for years. I don't think Ezra Miller survives in the DCU beyond the Flash movie. Henry Cavill is meanwhile being canned as Superman because…fans actually like him and he’s a heterosexual huhwhite dude,… Even so, it was quite unreasonable to feature Miller in the movie given that Johnny Depp, the former Fantastic Beasts franchise star, was asked to leave. The Hollywood Reporter claims that Ezra Miller, “participated in regularly scheduled additional photography over the summer” and worked on the filming for several months prior to being accused. Option three couldn’t take place without having a significant negative impact, so the Busted Walk actor would have to be allegedly acting in the film perfectly. These occurrences have raised questions about WB’s plans for the blockbuster-in-the-making, which will be Barry Allen’s first solo film, The Flash. The actor has drawn criticism after being detained twice for ludicrously ridiculous claims. Soon after, their splendid work in The Flash and Harry Potter spin-off series Fantastic Beasts introduced the 30 years old actor to a huge fanbase. Miller appeared to have a bright future at that time.

From conversations around separating art from the artist, to whether or not cancel culture actually exists, fans of The Flash are more divided than ever.

All of this has led to conversations online about separating art from the artist and whether or not cancel culture actually exists.
