Summary
Ezra Miller is finally seeking mental health help. In a statement released earlier this week, the “Fantastic Beasts” actor apologized for their recent string of troubling behavior – and troubling is putting it lightly. Over the last two years, Ezra’s been arrested and accused of a wide variety of charges including assault, grooming, and felony burglary. And while we’re happy that they’re reaching out for help, the timing is raising some eyebrows. With Ezra’s big-budget DC film “The Flash” due out next summer, could this just be a well-planned PR move to repair their reputation and save their acting career?
