Ezra Miller

Ezra Miller was chosen as the 2012 co-recipient of the Chopard Trophy in Cannes along with Shailene Woodley. Ezra was presented with his award by Sean Penn. Created in 2001, the Chopard Trophy has become one of the most anticipated special events of the Cannes Film Festival. Previous recipients include Marion Cotillard, Audrey Tautou, Gael Garcia Bernal, Eduardo Noriega, and James McAvoy. Gilles Jacob, the President of the Festival, personally oversees the evening. Chopard, the Official Sponsor of the Cannes Film Festival, collaborates with Variety Magazine to celebrate the most exciting young talents of each year.



Since his 2008 screen debut in the harrowing prep-school drama AFTERSCHOOL, 20-year-old Ezra Miller has built a reputation for fearlessness, comic chops, and holding his own opposite stars as diverse as Tilda Swinton, Andy Garcia, and Liev Schreiber. The highly-acclaimed AFTERSCHOOL screened at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival and the 2009 Berlin Film Festival. The film garnered critical acclaim including nominations at both the Gotham Independent Film Awards and the Independent Spirit Awards.



Ezra received attention for two films in 2011: the Lynne Ramsay helmed feature WE NEED TO TALK ABOUT KEVIN, playing the title role of "Kevin" opposite Tilda Swinton and John C. Reilly, which premiered to rave reviews at the Cannes Film Festival and earned him a Best Supporting Actor nomination for the British Independent Film Awards; and the Sam Levinson directed film ANOTHER HAPPY DAY with Ellen Barkin, Ellen Burstyn, Kate Bosworth, Demi Moore, and Martin Landau, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival.

Earlier, he had two films at the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival: EVERY DAY, opposite Liev Schreiber, Helen Hunt, Carla Gugino, Brian Dennehy and Eddie Izzard, and BEWARE THE GONZO, Bryan Goluboff's directorial debut, in which Ezra played the lead role.

Previously, Ezra starred opposite Andy Garcia and Julianna Margulies in Raymond De Felitta's CITY ISLAND, which premiered at the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival.



In 2014, Ezra starred in MADAME BOVARY alongside Mia Wasikowska and Paul Giamatti in Normandy, France. Prior to this, Ezra starred opposite Emma Watson in THE PERKS OF BEING A WALLFLOWER and garnered critical acclaim for his portrayal of the role of "Patrick." For this role, he was nominated for Breakthrough Performance at the 2013 MTV Movie Awards.

Ezra Miller also starrs in the title role of the film THE FLASH for Warner Bros and DC Comics. This character also appears in the Justice League movies, alongside Ben Affleck as Batman and Henry Cavill as Superman.
