Fans Ask For Elliot Page To Replace Ezra Miller After Grooming Allegations
With Ezra Miller drowning in accusations and police reports, people can’t wait
As accusations against Ezra Miller began to pile up, fans began to rally for a new actor to be chosen to play the role of Barry Allen in “The Flash.” One of them is Umbrella Academy star, Elliot Page.
The fate of the series has remained unclear, with only rumors floating around that Ezra was fired. But fans just couldn’t help themselves: why not cast Elliot Page instead?
The actor has been accused of rubbing up to a 12-year-old nonbinary and pointing a gun at the mother for “cultural appropriation.” More women have come forward for allegedly witnessing and experiencing some of his violent episodes.
Some are excited at the prospect of seeing Elliot play yet another superhero role.

Since coming out and transitioning, Page has been showing off his body more on Instagram. He’s appeared more shredded than before, and people think he’s enough experience portraying a superhero well!
Warner Bros. has already put $200 million as an investment in the project, and it’s unlikely that the movie would be canceled.
Sources have also claimed that Batman actors would make an appearance in the series, though it was unlikely to be Robert Pattinson as his movie wasn’t part of the main DCEU lineup. Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck are said to be appearing as their own versions of Batman.
Deadline’s report continued, “Sources said even if no more allegations surface, the studio won’t likely keep Miller in the Flash role in future DC films.”
“That would mean replacing them in the future, but there is still a $200million investment on the line with the first film, and Warner Bros execs have to be cringing at each new press report.”
The source concluded, “There is no winning in this for Warner Bros. This is an inherited problem for [President and CEO of Warner Bros. Discovery David] Zaslav. The hope is that the scandal will remain at a low level before the movie is released, and hope for the best to turn out.”
Elliot Page is just one of several that have been suggested, and he has experience playing superhero. He also plays Viktor in Umbrella Academy, previously known as Vanya.
Ezra has also since then been involved in a series of issues, including attacking people in a karaoke bar. He reportedly burst into a room of a married couple, who later issued a restraining order on him after he left their room with their passport and money.
