Ezra Miller has already won over fans with his brief appearance as the Scarlet Speedster in David Ayer's Suicide Squad, and from what was revealed in the Justice League Comic-Con footage, Miller will be bringing along with him some much-needed levity that seems to be missing from the heroes of the DC Film Universe.

During an interview with MTV, the Perks of Being a Wallflower actor spoke about how he and director Rick Famuyiwa will be exploring the brighter, human side of the DC Film Universe with The Flash. “I think there’s just an intention to make something extremely fun and something superhuman and something deeply human,” said Miller. “It’s the thing we’re all trying to do, but I think Rick’s mind and his heart are in an excellent place, and his expertise as a filmmaker, as evidenced by Dope, all come together as very exciting factors to me. It’s hard when talking about Rick to not use the word dope too many times. It’s the Brooklyn in me; dope is a big part of my vernacular.”

Miller went on to talk about his experience so far working with Kiersey Clemons, who recently signed on to play the role of Iris West, The Flash's love interest. “Kiersey is amazing. I had the opportunity to read with her and do some explorative acting in our chemistry read ... the results of these experiments clearly were positive. I’m just deeply excited about what these people carry in their hearts, and I’m excited about the radical intention that everybody seems to be bringing to the genesis chamber of this film.”

With Miller having officially made his debut in full costume as The Flash in Suicide Squad, there are now two Scarlet Speedsters running around saving two different universes, and according to Miller, he's ready to race beside Grant Gustin through the Speed Force. “He’s [Grant Gustin] a boss,” said Miller when asked about his TV counterpart. “I can’t wait to see him, eye to eye, adrift in the Speed Force — our eyes will lock and, in that moment, we will both know the truth. What truth? I dare not say.”

I always look forward to interviews with this guy just to hear what kinda bizarre pot fueled Flash philosophy comes out of his mouth.

"I’m excited about the radical intention that everybody seems to be bringing to the genesis chamber of this film."

No one on earth is like Ezra Miller.
