The Flash season 9 cast: who stars in Sky series with Grant Gustin - is Ezra Miller in DC show?

Season nine of DC superhero series The Flash is coming to the UK after a US release last month. The show will see the return of the main cast from previous seasons as well as introduce new characters including Captain Boomerang, Fiddler, and Murmur.

Originally The Flash was planned to end after season eight, however, the ending was changed to allow for another series. Season nine has now been confirmed as the final season of the show. The new season follows the defeat of Reverse Flash in season eight, picking up one week on from where the action ended. 

The official synopsis for the new series reads: “Barry Allen and Iris West-Allen are reconnecting and growing closer than ever before. But when a deadly group of Rogues descend on Central City led by a powerful new threat, The Flash and his team—Caitlin Snow, Meta-Empath Cecile Horton, the light-powered meta Allegra Garcia, brilliant tech-nerd Chester P. Runk, and reformed cryogenics thief Mark Blaine —must once again defy impossible odds to save the day. 

“But as The Rogues are defeated, a deadly new adversary rises to challenge Barry Allen’s heroic legacy. And in their greatest battle yet, Barry and Team Flash will be pushed to their limits, in order to save Central City one last time.”

Is Ezra Miller in The Flash series?

No, Ezra Miller is known for playing Barry Allen and his superhero alter ego The Flash in several DC movies, and in small roles in the series Peacemaker and Arrow, but they do not play the role in the series.  

Despite speculation that the star may not reprise their superhero role, Miller is returning in the new Flash movie, landing in cinemas in June.

Miller faced legal issues over the last year - he was twice arrested in Hawaii and was charged with disorderly conduct and harassment, and second-degree assault - and is currently involved in several criminal investigations. 

This year they pleaded guilty to trespassing and a charge of burglary against them was dropped. Miller stated back in August last year that they were seeking treatment for mental health issues.

Speaking about Miller in January, “Ezra is completely committed to their recovery. We are fully supportive of that journey they are on right now. When the time is right, when they are ready to have that discussion, we will all figure out what’s the best path forward.”
