The 48-year-old actor last week reprised his role as Assistant District Attorney (ADA) Isaiah Holmes in
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit. Holmes is the show's first openly gay district attorney.
In an Instagram post last year, Miller said that he's no longer interested in playing straight roles, including Michael Scofield on
Prison Break, which Fox is reportedly planning to revive again.
Speaking with
Entertainment Tonight, Miller expanded on his remarks, saying that he's not interested in playing gay characters defined by "their struggle."
