Actor Ezra Miller has been charged with felony burglary in the latest in a string of incidents involving the embattled star of The Flash.
Key points:
- Actor Ezra Miller has faced accusations of erratic behavior in the last year
- They have been arrested twice earlier this year in Hawaii for disorderly conduct and assault
- Warner Bros has not suggested axing upcoming movie The Flash over their behavior
Vermont State Police said they responded to a burglary complaint in Stamford on May 1, discovering several bottles of alcohol were taken from a home while the owners weren’t there.
Miller was charged after police looked at surveillance footage and interviewed witnesses.
The police report said the 29-year-old actor was located shortly before midnight and ordered to appear in Vermont Superior Court on September 26.
The felony charge added to Miller’s mounting legal woes and reports of erratic behaviour.
They were arrested twice earlier this year in Hawaii, including for disorderly conduct and harassment at a karaoke bar.
The second incident was for a second-degree assault.
The parents of 18-year-old Tokata Iron Eyes, a Native American activist, also filed a protection order against Miller earlier this year.
The teen’s parents accused the actor of grooming their child and other inappropriate behavior with her as a minor from the age of 12.
Tokata Iron Eyes recently told Insider that those allegations were false.
Miller’s lawyers didn’t immediately respond to requests for comment on the Vermont felony charge or the protection order related to Tokata Iron Eyes.
After appearing in several films for Warner Bros and DC Films as the Flash, Miller stars in the upcoming standalone film The Flash, due out in June 2023.
Though Warner Bros last week axed the nearly completed Batgirl film, the studio has suggested it remains committed to releasing The Flash.
In an earnings report last week, David Zaslav, chief executive of Warner Bros Discovery, referenced The Flash.
“We have seen The Flash, Black Adam and Shazam 2. We are very excited about them,” said Mr Zaslav.
“We think they are terrific, and we think we can make them even better.”
Representatives for Warner Bros didn’t respond to requests for comment.
