A few days ago, we reported a new arrest of the actor, making a total of 3 in less than a month. This behavior suggests that the actor is not in good shape. However, Warner Bros. has not canceled him continue without giving statements about it. The police bodycam video has come to light this time, with Ezra Miller’s detention footage revealed. Miller is yelling at the cops in the video, asking for his badge number. At the same time, the actor is claiming that they were assaulted. This new evidence elicits many reactions from fans, but the predominant one is asking for help for the actor.

The news portal TMZ has revealed Ezra Miller’s Detention Footage dated March 28, 2022. This video comes from the body camera footage of Hawaii police officers who must wear mandatory body cameras.
The first part of the footage is distorted to miss the face of Miller’s alleged victim. In the audio, the man is heard relating that he was calmly playing darts when the actor spat at him.
Miller is then shown explaining that they had been assaulted in a bar and recording himself. As the actor himself explains, they makes the video for NFT crypto art purposes. We assume to sell later said footage as an NFT. Miller shouts at the agents to provide his name and badge number aggressively and repeatedly.
In the final part of the video, we see the actor handcuffed, calming down, and apologizing to the officers. He then states. “I claim my foth amenment right Fourth Amendment” protects people from unreasonable searches and seizures by the government. When the officer begins to reach into his pocket, Miller becomes nervous, claiming that he does not want to be touched by a male officer, as they are non-binary and transgender. They also find a Nerf gun on him at the time of the search, about which he jokes. Finally, the actor says, “Don’t touch my flash ring, it means a lot to me,” referring to his ring from the star’s DC character.
An Uncertain Future for the DC Star

We recently reported rumors about the actor’s possible replacement in The Flash movie. Miller already accumulates four appearances playing the character within the DC universe. They have appeared in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016), Justice League (2017), Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021), and recently his cameo in Peacemaker (2022).
Unfortunately, this run has also been fraught with controversy. The director removed much of his appearance in Justice League (2017). In addition, director Joss Whedon was accused by the cast of abusive behavior.

However, the actor could give his best in the new production, The Flash (2023). In addition to starring in the film, he will have the opportunity to interact with Michael Keaton’s Batman. The film involves a multiversal adventure where Barry, trying to prevent the murder of his mother, would start a journey through the multiverse. This plot is inspired by the comic book Flashpoint, highly acclaimed among fans.
Specialized media and fans wonder if the actor has a future at DC, especially with Ezra Miller’s detention footage revealed. So far, Warner Bros. has not given any statement regarding the actor’s behavior. But the environment is not the best to launch this important movie for the DCU. The studio has to plan how to market and promote a major superhero blockbuster when its leading man is in legal trouble.
It may be that the long delay in the film’s release is due to these unfortunate incidents. The Flash has been delayed until November 2023, probably to give WB’s management more time to sort out this situation.

Rumors of Ezra Miller’s replacement have just been denied. It also won’t eliminate the SnyderVerse continuity, where Miller got the Flash role. So everything points to Warner Bros. is waiting for the waters to calm down and perhaps holding talks with the actor.
What do you think? Do you think Warner Bros. should replace Miller for his bad behavior? Or do you think they should give the actor some help to overcome this difficult situation? We’ll read you in the comments.
