Miller will be the second actor to take on the role of The Flash as Grant Gustin is currently playing Grant Allen in the hit television series.
However, we are going to get a different version for the big screen and it is set to be the biggest role of Miller's career to date. While the actor has made a name for himself with performances in We Need To Talk About Kevin and The Perks of Being A Wallflower, this looks set to be the film that send his star rocketing.
And Miller reveals that he wants to play a complicated and multi-layered Flash.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, the actor said: "Well, [first] it's going to be a movie. I'd like for it to be an exploration of a human being, a multi-dimensional human being, to speak," he told EW.
"I'd like the character to have many dimensions. But really, I'd like him to have the usual dimensions we know and love, and then some extra ones that are part of the amazing consideration of this superhero," he added.
"I hope to realize him as a person, and I think what's most exciting for me in superhero mythologies is when we feel the humanity of someone who is heroic - or the heroism of someone who is a flawed, deeply human person."
We won't be seeing The Flash film released until 2018, but Seth Grahame-Smith is in the director's chair for the project. Miller is currently the only official member of the cast list.
We last saw Miller on the big screen in comedy Trainwreck and he is currently filming Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them alongside Eddie Redmayne.
The Flash will be released in the U.S. on 23rd March 2018. A UK release date is yet to be announced.
