Ezra Miller Admits Holding 'A Lot Of Regret' But Would Return To Hollywood 'On Tentative Grounds'

The "Fantastic Beasts" actor, however, touched on their shocking resurgence at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival, where they attended the premiere of Lynne Ramsey's "Die, My Love."

Wearing a maroon tuxedo and beret, Miller barely interacted with photographers, briskly walking past with their head down. They refused to take any photographs.

"I came to Cannes to support one of my closest friends in the world, who is Lynne Ramsey—who I think is one of the greatest living filmmakers," the actor explained.

They revealed a collaboration with Ramsey on an unnamed project, saying they have been "writing a lot." Without giving specifics, Miller shared that the project will "likely be the first thing I do" upon their return.

While still speaking to the Italian outlet, Lo Speciale Giornale, Miller revealed they only came to the French film festival on Ramsey's request. However, it wasn't an easy thing to do.

[quote] "I didn’t necessarily want to go to Cannes. I had a bit of a hard time. That's a tough re-entry point."

They continued, "If you've been in the woods for three years, I do not recommend going straight to Cannes, where every photographer and every weirdo, every rich genocidal freak [will] be there, you know what I mean?"

Miller said they made the big sacrifice because they would do "anything" for Ramsey.

Later in the interview, "The Perks of Being a Wallflower" touched on their past legal troubles and erratic behavior. Miller got philosophical, giving cryptic comments to describe the difficult time.

"When we go through those crucibles, if we can survive, which was up in the air for me if I'm being real, we then have that capacity to see other people in their crucibles and just to reach towards them," they told the Italian publication.

The 32-year-old continued, "I think that grows more and more rarefied in our world, too. Like, the capacity to do that, the desire to do that, the willingness to do that."

They also confessed to being "very consumed in notions of perception." However, they managed to dig past that by "being a friend to people."

Miller further spoke about those who were supportive during their troubles, saying, "They have my lifelong devotion."

However, the DCU actor also became aware of those who abandoned them during their legal controversies. Discussing the betrayal, they said:

[quote] "I’m grateful for the revelations of who was not that. When you work in this industry, you’ll find yourself in deep, deep relation with a lot of people who do not give a single f-ck about you, or your well-being, at all."

Miller continued, "Not that I don't hold a lot of remorse and lamentation for a lot of things that I did and a lot of things that happened in that time, but I'm really, really grateful for the lessons that came with that abyss."

Ezra Miller's controversies date back to 2020, when a viral video showed the actor appearing to choke a woman at a bar in Reykjavik, Iceland.

Although no charges were filed, things went downhill from there, with 2022 being his worst year. It began with a series of arrests in Hawaii.

On different occasions, the New Jersey native was accused of causing a scene and harassing patrons at a karaoke bar. They were arrested and charged with disorderly conduct, later pleading no contest and paying a $500 fine.

Barely a month later, in April 2022, Miller got in trouble again for allegedly hurling a chair at a 26-year-old woman at a private party. They were slammed with a second-degree assault charge.

Come June 2022, grooming allegations were levied against the "We Need To Talk About Kevin" star. They were also accused of breaking into a Vermont home to steal alcohol.

Miller finally issued an apology in August of that year via a lengthy statement. "Having recently gone through a time of intense crisis, I now understand that I am suffering complex mental health issues and have begun ongoing treatment," it read. "I want to apologize to everyone that I have alarmed and upset with my past behavior."

NO FANK YOU!

How presumptuous.

Hollywood doesn't want him back.

[quote] every weirdo, every rich genocidal freak [will] be there, you know what I mean?"

No, not really.

All the they and their stuff makes the piece unreadable

I'll never forget his performance in The Stand miniseries.

Everyone else looked and acted so normal and then Ezra would enter the scene screaming and drooling while wearing filthy briefs. That was some real try-hard Acting with an A.

Maybe he's really sorry about his minor indiscretions in his past!!

Erza seems nice.

Mais oui.

[quote]All the they and their stuff makes the piece unreadable

Exactly and if he is a "they", shouldn't his quote...

[quote]"I came to Cannes to support one of my closest friends in the world, who is Lynne Ramsey—who I think is one of the greatest living filmmakers," the actor explained.

actuality be "WE came to Cannes to support... who WE think is one????

If he does return, I hope he doesn’t bring those nasty feet with him.

Can I come too?

Will he be being his corn chip toenails with him?

[quote]Everyone else looked and acted so normal and then Ezra would enter the scene screaming and drooling while wearing filthy briefs.

To be fair R6 - that character was the Trashcan Man and he was absolutely batshit crazy and did shout and scream while running around wearing only filthy underwear with his skin peeling off. Randall Flagg raped him. He was insane and had been driven even more insane with radiation poisoning in the book. Perfect character for Miller.

Miller sounds like a total fucking disaster.

[quote] every weirdo, every rich genocidal freak will be there, you know what I mean?"

Starting with himself.

Or should I say, theyself?

Actually, who cares?

They is exhausting.

I just tried to get through their wikipedia page but it's impossible to read with all the theys and thems and zirs and whos and other nonsense. Look at your crotch. If you're comfortable with what's down there, just settle down with the god given pronoun provided by the English language. You can still wear a dress or whatever. If you're not comfortable, use the other pronoun. The theys and thems just perpetuates the thought that you have multiple voices in your head and some sort of schizophrenic mental illness. I'm all for personal expression and live and let live, but language gymnastics is just attention seeking.

Where are the nudes?

Cosplaying Jonathan Van Ness?

I think the girl looks happy and healthy. They look comfortable together and supportive of one another. I kind of like him. I find him very masculine actually, all that chest hair and the skin, cheekbones, eyes.

^^^ “His skin, eyes, cheekbones” in the picture of him at OP, not at Cannes, although she looks good there and they both look comfortable together and physically affectionate.

Only if he goes full frontal.

He had a beautiful body and was visually quite striking when he was young, but like Shia Lebeouf, fucking up his career in his 20s was a disastrous mistake because he will just look homelier and homelier as he ages.

I've read the book and I still thought his performance was excessive, r13. All that squealing and drooling while everyone else looked like they were in a GAP commercial. He made a gross spectacle out of himself.

I still like him.

Great r24 send me your home address. I should be able to fit you into my current couch surfing schedule. On "tentative grounds" of course.

He's a beautiful hot mess.

Is that a toupee?

Lock up your booze R24!

The LSA thread is gold!🤣

"He looks like a pair of panties that fell behind the washer."
