This is Miller’s second arrest in Hawaii:

“The Flash, with a reported $100 million budget, is currently in post-production so replacing Miller doesn’t seem like a viable option:
How the hell is Ezra Miller still the Flash?

Maybe Johnny Depp can play Flash? Like an old version or something:
it's absolutely wild that ezra miller is still in major roles in DC and Harry Potter despite regularly assaulting people, but johnny depp has been fired from multiple roles because he was abused https://t.co/haTuI5CgQ0

And it does seem like this story isn’t getting the attention it deserves. Compare and contrast to Will Smith at the Oscars, for example:
Ezra Miller is getting away with brutally assaulting multiple women because he’s “non-binary.”

Miller paid a $500 fine for the incident in March:

The New York Times was forced to delete a tweet after using the wrong pronoun to describe Miller. It’s “they,” not “he”:
Correction: A previous version of this tweet used an incorrect pronoun for Ezra Miller. Miller uses they, not he. We have deleted the incorrect tweet.
— The New York Times (@nytimes) April 20, 2022
But rather re-write the tweet with the correct pronoun, the New York Times just didn’t use one:
Ezra Miller, who played the superhero The Flash in several movies and TV series, is facing an assault charge in Hawaii. The actor was accused of throwing a chair after being asked to leave a party, injuring a woman. https://t.co/IYP2kM5u7u
— The New York Times (@nytimes) April 20, 2022
Shouldn’t the NYT have just used “they”?
Ezra Miller's pronouns are they/them and widely known as such. Choosing not to honor said pronouns simply because Miller is a jerk does nothing to them but sure does ostracize the shit out of the non-binary folks in your life.
