Ezra Miller's childhood

Ezra Matthew was the third child of Robert Miller, a senior vice president at a publishing house, and modern dancer Marta Koch. His father spent most of his time at work, and Marta entirely devoted herself to raising her children. Ezra would often take long walks with his mother and two older sisters Saiya and Caitlin, where Marta taught her children about the peculiarities of the world around them and how to exercise their imagination.

Acting career

Ezra Miller made his screen debut when he was 14. In 2008 he landed his first prominent role in the movie «Afterschool», in which he played a prep-school student who becomes an involuntary witness of his two classmates dying. He captures this accident on video and decides to use it as compromising evidence against the college system.

Contrary to the usual trajectory, the young actor then appeared in small parts on the television series «Californication» (2008), «Law & Order: Special Victims Unit» (2009) and «Royal Pains» (2009). From sullen nerds to desperate ruffians, all his characters share a common trait: a willful nature. Participating in popular TV shows was a great opportunity for a beginning actor since he worked on the set in collaboration with David Duchovny, Natascha McElhone, Daniel Pino and Christopher Meloni.

In 2010 young actor played the leading role in «Beware the Gonzo» comedy film, also starring the daughter of musician Lenny Kravitz, Zoe Kravitz. During filming, the young actors developed a connection that led to a brief romantic relationship. As for Ezra's character, he played an ambitious editor of the school paper who secretly sees himself as the next confrontational gonzo-journalist in the vein of Hunter S. Thompson.

After that Ezra Miller appeared in «Every Day» comedy-drama film, where he played the son of Liev Schreiber's character. Next year in «Another Happy Day» drama Ezra worked with Ellen Barkin and Demi Moore. This time Miller transformed into a reckless guy who seems interested only in seeking thrills.

In 2011 Ezra was cast for the part in the psychological thriller drama film «We Need to Talk About Kevin», and that was a real breakthrough for his acting career. When Miller first read the script, he decided to do whatever it took to land the role of a teenager Kevin who commits an unthinkable massacre. However, the film's central tension stems not from Kevin's problems, but from his relationship with his mother, a role performed by incomparable Tilda Swinton. Ezra persuasively delivers the wrath and anger of his character. And although it was Tilda who won the audience and critical acclaim, Ezra's performance significantly contributed to the film's Palme d'Or nomination of the Cannes Film Festival.

Miller's next notable role was Patrick, a homosexual teenager in «The Perks of Being a Wallflower» drama film (2012). Co-starring with Emma Watson and Logan Lerman, Miller confronts viewers with difficult questions about violence, drugs, suicide and cruelty among teenagers.

In «Madame Bovary» Ezra co-starred with Mia Wasikowska. The following year, Miller appeared in the romantic comedy «Trainwreck» alongside stand-up comedian Amy Schumer and the thriller «The Stanford Prison Experiment».

In 2016, «Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them» premiered as the first installment in the «Fantastic Beasts» series, introducing wizard and "magizoologist" Newt Scamander from the Harry Potter wizarding world. The story unfolds roughly a century before the events of the original film series. Ezra played Credence Barebone, a young man whose mother founded the New Salem Philanthropic Society, a group dedicated to exposing and eliminating all wizards and witches. The film also stars Eddie Redmayne, Ron Perlman, Colin Farrell and Zoe Kravitz.

Even more significant for Ezra was landing the role of Flash, a superhero with the power of superhuman speed. He'd already appeared in the chaotic «Suicide Squad» (2016) and earned a credit in «Justice League» (2017). His solo film «Flashpoint» was slated for release in 2020. There's no doubt that playing Flash would catapult Ezra to worldwide fame and win over millions of comic book fans.

After that, Warner Bros suspended filming on projects with Ezra. The studio was seriously considering replacing him with another actor. Rolling Stone interviewed several people familiar with Miller, and they said that Ezra has been in a strange state for a long time and "looks lost."

But then the majority, mindful of Ezra's pro-feminist position, doubted that he was in the frame.
