Ezra Miller And The Underage Audition

BG Note: The star of We Need To Talk About Kevin, Fantastic Beasts and the upcoming Flash movie is featured in the cover story of the November 7, 2018 issue of The Hollywood Reporter.

[The Hollywood Reporter] …A year later, Miller landed opposite Emma Watson in The Perks of Being a Wallflower, a more traditional coming-of-age story that put him on the top of studio wish lists. Flash and Beasts’ Credence somehow penetrated his Hollywood disaffection (they “resonate with my soul”). But he hopes to make more films with [Director Lynne] Ramsay, “the greatest director alive,” whose treatment by the film’s financier and producer after her firing from 2015 Western Jane Got a Gun enrages him. “Powerful men, they don’t know how bad they want to submit to a woman, a feminine power, but they should. I advise they do it immediately because they’re fuckin’ up the world.”

This bleeds into Miller’s own #MeToo moment, which he has never shared, with an unnamed director and producer.

“They gave me wine and I was underaged,” he recalls. “They were like, ‘Hey, want to be in our movie about gay revolution?’ And I was like, ‘No, you guys are monsters.'”

He’s on a roll now. “It’s a great f*ckin’ age of being like, ‘You know what? That shit’s unacceptable,’ And it’s amazing for a lot of us to watch. ‘Cause, like, we all knew it was unacceptable when we f*cking survived it. That’s what Hollywood is. I thought we all knew we were sex workers.”

Hollywood’s warped hierarchy brings out Miller’s intensity, but not nearly as much as the subject of climate change. In fact, that line of conversation brings the actor to tears. “Gaia, we don’t understand her. We don’t understand how powerful she is. We don’t respect her rights,” he says, shaking. “I’m just an emotional person. I just feel things differently. Yes, I’m crying already in the interview.”

Often cited as the first non-hetero film superhero (Ian McKellan’s X Man Magneto was a villain), Miller has long identified as queer. “Yeah, absolutely. Which is to say, I don’t identify. Like, fuck that,” he says. “Queer just means no, I don’t do that. I don’t identify as a man. I don’t identify as a woman. I barely identify as a human.”

    We don’t even know if this movie was ever real, got made or was just an excuse to have meetings with tipsy underage boys. Because we know that it has NEVER happened before like that. Ever.

  4. thebutlerdidit says

    Oh, brother. ???? my eyes were rolling so hard reading this, they almost got stuck.

    Outfit is Goth Alice in Wonderland catapillar.

    Movie- Milk
    Director- Gus Van Sant

    Was he auditioning for the part Emile Hirsh got, or Diego Luna’s?

  10. hvp5ss says

    I can’t figure out if underage means under 18, or under 21 (not legal to drink) so it’s hard to narrow down a timeline for the movie.

    But the culprits sound any awful lot like Gus Van Sant &/ or James Franco, who did multiple projects, together and separately, that could fit the theme.

    Optional:
    Fabulous coiled snake.

    “out of his * mind” but also “ezra dont give a *”

    Kudos to him for forging his own path.

  16. smoolieloo says

    No idea about the blinds but I will describe the fabulous outfit worn by Ezra: Noir Couture Trashbag PuffyParka!

  19. WorkHardBeNice says

    Drawing a blank on director or producer but I think that get-up makes him look like a goth potato bug.

  21. anarchistlibrarian says

    five words or less for this look?!: “holy attention *, ezra!” – but i LOVE it!!! ? good for him, defining (or not defining) himself/theirself on his/their own terms!! 🙂

    i’m afraid i have no guesses, but am glad it would appear that #timesup for these predators and abusers!

  22. Grande Queso says

    * weird. Dude has some serious issues.

    Also, when will the metoo movement uncover the obviously huge pedo problem in Hollywood? And they wonder why we think they’re elite grandstanding is *.

  23. oyevey says

    That is either a Moncler coat or creature from Stranger Things!

    Movie – Stonewall with Roland Emmerich as producer/director.

  25. SilverLining says

    Afterschool?
    Antonio Campos who co-founded BorderLine Films that was the production company for the film.

    • blablabla123 says

      Wow, googled Roland and he sure likes ’em young! His husband looks like a kid and then I read they had been together 9 years prior to getting married :O

    I don’t like filthy language, so I couldn’t even get through the blind….total turnoff!

  29. tundra says

    I’m guessing this is the 2008 movie “Milk,” with the clue in the Similar.

    I’m sorry that happened to him. He sounds kind of unhinged, so maybe it affected him more than he admitted.

    I’ll describe the outfit in three words: desperate for attention.

  32. VegasMike says

    Stonewall
    Roland Emmerich

    Optional – Glad garbage bag meets Dalek!

    Good for him! Don’t know much about him, but this item makes me want to learn more.

    And he’s freaking adorable!! But Credence was pretty creepy!

  33. carriebradshaw says

    Movie About Gay Revolution:Milk, nice clue 🙂

    Director and/or Producer:Gus Van Sant/Bruce Cohen

    Miller was probably 15y.o. at this time, ant the story is gross.

    • johnchas1 says

      I worked on Milk, and while I never witnessed anything inappropriate, I can attest that
      Van Sant has an eye for the young ones. If you’re correct, Miller would have been
      considered for the role of Danny Nicoletta that ended up going to Lucas Grabeel. To
      be clear, I worked on the film for about a month of it’s two month shoot and never saw
      anything inappropriate, but were I a betting man I would go with your guess.

  34. Sharper_Teeth says

    Ezra’s look: Pure camp. Like, he could drop everything and be roasting marshmallows at a moment’s notice.

  37. hotpinkmomma says

    I’m sorry he experienced this in his career. But on his outfit? Michelin Boy Arrives. Or maybe “Heimlich Goes Hollywood”
