‘The Flash’s Ezra Miller Keeps Getting Arrested In Hawaii

Actor Ezra Miller, who stars in the upcoming DC film The Flash, was arrested once again in Hawaii Tuesday (April 19) for assaulting a woman. Per CNN, Miller, 29, was arrested for second-degree assault around 1:30 a.m. during a traffic stop on Tuesday following an incident at a private residence in the district of Puna. Miller, who is non-binary and uses they/them pronouns was released about two and a half hours later.

"During the course of their investigation, police determined that the individual, later identified as Ezra Miller, became irate after being asked to leave and reportedly threw a chair, striking a 26-year-old female on the forehead, resulting in an approximate half-inch cut," according to a news release. The woman injured refused treatment, according to police.

Last month, Miller, who also stars in Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, allegedly ripped a microphone out of a woman’s hands who was singing karaoke and lunged at a man playing darts at the Margarita Village karaoke bar in Hilo. They were charged with disorderly conduct and harassment. Yesterday afternoon, Miller appeared virtually in a Hilo courtroom to plead no contest to disorderly conduct stemming from that incident and agreed to pay a $500 fine. A harassment charge was dropped.

Per Comicbook, a temporary restraining order was filed against them by a couple on the island. Stoyan Kojoukarov and his wife, Niegel Hayes, filed a temporary restraining order against the actor last month, after alleging that Miller burst into their bedroom window and threatened to burn them. Miller also reportedly stole several items from the couple, including Hayes' passport and wallet. The restraining order claims that the couple is continuing to suffer emotionally due to Miller's behavior, and are worried that the actor's has "access to weapons," and that they could potentially send "associates" to further harass them at a later date.

This string of arrests isn’t the first time the We Need To Talk About Kevin actor got violent in a bar. In 2020, footage of Miller choking a woman in a bar in Iceland surfaced online. Per Variety, sources close to the situation described the situation as a serious altercation that led to Miller being escorted off the premises by staff.

The Flash is currently slated for release in summer 2023. It is unclear whether or not they will be replacing Miller's character in the film.

Ezra Miller, who stars in the upcoming DC film The Flash and April’s Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore, was arrested by law enforcement in Hawaii yesterday morning (March 28). Miller was charged for disorderly conduct and harassment after an incident at a bar.

According to a post by the Hawaii County Police Department, officers responded to a report of a disorderly bar patron on Sunday night. Police determined that the agitator had become unruly while other patrons sang karaoke and had begun “yelling obscenities.” Miller, 29, then “grabbed the microphone from a 23-year-old woman singing karaoke and later lunged at a 32-year-old man playing darts.”

Miller was arrested and charged on offenses of disorderly conduct and harassment. Bail was set at $500, which Miller provided, with law enforcement subsequently releasing them from custody.

This isn't the first time the Perks of Being A Wallflower actor got violent in a bar. In 2020, footage of Miller choking a woman in a bar in Iceland surfaced online.

Miller will be playing Barry Allen, i.e. the Flash in the upcoming Flash film, which is set to hit theaters on June 23, 2023. After appearing in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, Justice League and Zack Snyder’s Justice League, this will be Miller's first solo film.
