Ezra Miller
Birthdate: September 30, 1992 (33 Years Old)
Birthplace: Hoboken, New Jersey, USA
Ezra Miller (birthname: Ezra Matthew Miller) is closely identified with the character of Credence Barebone/Aurelius Dumbledore in the Harry Potter spinoff franchise, Fantastic Beasts, including the third entry in the series, Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore (2022). Miller made his debut in Afterschool (2008) and with a recurring guest role opposite David Duchovny on the series, Californication.
After a string of young and juvenile roles (including City Island in 2009), Ezra Miller gained major critical and industry attention for his performances in Lynne Ramsay’s We Need to Talk About Kevin and the box-office hit The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012).
But it was their role as Barry Allen aka The Flash in, first, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), Suicide Squad (2016), Justice League (2017), and then Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021) series that propelled Miller into a position as the lead star of Warner Bros. hoped-for superhero franchise, The Flash.
The first feature entry in The Flash is in post-production as of April 2022. Hopes for a long-running franchise are in question, however, following incidents in March 2022, when news of various physical assaults and death threats by Miller caused Warners executives to consider placing a hold on the further development of The Flash.
Personal life
Ezra Miller, raised in Wyckoff, New Jersey, is gender-fluid and uses they/them pronouns as a way of separation from either gender. He does not use the terms “gay,” but uses instead the terms “queer” and “polyamorous,” which he has stated create “an umbrella of non-identification.” Miller has a father (Robert) in the book publishing industry and a mother (Marta) who performed as a dancer specializing in modern dance. Even though their mother is Christian and their father is Jewish, Miller identifies as Jewish and spiritual. Ezra Miller attended the Hudson School in Hoboken, N.J. They have not attended college or university. They are in polyamorous relationships with a few people.
He refers to himself as a “polycule”—a word blend of “polyamorous” and “molecule.” Miller has been involved in several incidents involving either drug possession charges (in Pittsburgh in 2011) or physical confrontations and assaults in Reykjavik, Iceland (2020) and in Hilo, Hawaii in March 2022, including charges of alleged murder threats. Miller also posted an Instagram video in January 2022, apparently threatening members of the Ku Klux Klan. His violent behavior in public and alleged outbursts on production sets have reportedly compelled executives at Warner Bros. to place a hold on production plans for the studio’s next superhero vehicle and Miller’s major starring project, The Flash.*
