This is the first time Ezra Miller has shared his #MeToo story.
Fantastic Beasts The Crimes of Grindelwald actor Ezra Miller has come out with his #MeToo story, recounting how an unnamed director and producer took advantage of him when he was a minor. It was about time that people in Hollywood knew what kind of behaviour is acceptable and what is not, Miller told The Hollywood Reporter.
“It’s a great fu*kin’ 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 fu*king survived it. That’s what Hollywood is. I thought we all knew we were sex workers,” he said.
This is the first time the Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald actor has shared his story. “They gave me wine and I was underage,” Miller recounted, without taking any names. They were like, ‘Hey, want to be in our movie about gay revolution?’ And I was like, ‘No, you guys are monsters’,” he added.
Miller praised the #MeToo movement for being a watershed moment that spelled the downfall of many like Harvey Weinstein and Brett Ratner.
Ezra Miller plays the role of Credence Barebone in the Fantastic Beasts films. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald releases on November 16.
