Ezra Miller is The Flash in the new Justice League movie. That makes part of an elite group of openly gay actors to be cast as a lead character in a superhero franchise.

This year at Comic-Con, the 24-year-old was explaining to a crowd of fans why it would take an effort for The Flash to get drunk, and that’s when a fan asked if they could smell his breath to prove it.

Miller then leaned in and gave him a big ole kiss, to the delight of the crowd. The star identifies as queer, which he first openly discussed in 2012, saying,

“I never thought about hiding anything about myself. When I was around 14, I was obsessed with Hunter S. Thompson. I must’ve seen Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas 500 times.

Hunter created this public persona called Raoul Duke who was very different from himself and it tortured him… So I never wanted to set up a public persona who was different from who I was.

Maybe it sounds cheesy, but I just wanted to realize my true self.”

Watch.
