Ezra Miller was born on September 30, 1992 in Wyckoff, New Jersey.
The town is about 25 miles from Manhattan.
Miller grew up with a speech impediment. At age six, he started to train as an opera singer to help him overcome it.
Miller's acting career began when he was just 16-years-old.
His first feature length movie was "Afterschool." Miller plays an internet-addicted prep-school student who "captures on video camera the drug overdose of two girls."

And, like every up-and-coming actor out there, he guest starred in an episode of "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit."
Miller first started to get people's attention with his performance as a troubled teen in "We Need to Talk About Kevin."
Even against a heavy hitter like Tilda Swinton, he was still able to stand out.
The actor followed up "Kevin" with "The Perks of Being a Wallflower," where he played Patrick.

The film was a true showcase of his warmth, charisma, and comic timing.
The actor is very open about his identity.
While promoting "Perks," in which he plays a character meant to be a queer role model, Miller talked about his identity with Out Magazine.
“I’m queer. I have a lot of really wonderful friends who are of very different sexes and genders. I am very much in love with no one in particular. I’ve been trying to figure out relationships, you know? I don’t know if it’s responsible for kids of my age to be so aggressively pursuing monogamous binds, because I don’t think we’re ready for them," Miller said.
"The romanticism within our culture dictates that that’s what you’re supposed to be looking for. Then [when] we find what we think is love— even if it is love — we do not yet have the tools. I do feel that it’s possible to be at this age unintentionally hurtful, just by being irresponsible — which is fine. I’m super down with being irresponsible.
"I’m just trying to make sure my lack of responsibility no longer hurts people. That’s where I’m at in the boyfriend/girlfriend/zefriend type of question.”
Miller continued to prove his range with roles in "The Stanford Prison Experiment" and Amy Schumer's "Trainwreck."
Miller was then cast as Barry Allen, who you might know better as The Flash.
Miller made his debut as the character in the first trailer for "Justice League." As with in "Perks," he provides some much needed comic relief.
When explaining why he wants to join the Justice League, he tells Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck), "I need...friends."

To add to his big year, he'll also appear in Harry Potter prequel "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them."
His role is still mysterious.
He has been onscreen with another "Harry Potter" star in the past: He and Emma Watson acted alongside each other in "The Perks of Being a Wallflower."
When he arrived at Comic Con, Miller proved he could be both a theater kid and a nerd: he showed up to the "Justice League" panel dressed as Gandalf.
The world is ready for Ezra Miller.
