After months of increasingly alarming antics and amid a growing PR crisis for Warner Bros., Ezra Miller has announced they are seeking professional help for “complex mental health issues.” The former child star was charged with a felony burglary in Vermont last week, and said in a statement to Variety last night that “having recently gone through a time of intense crisis, I now understand that I am suffering complex mental health issues and have begun ongoing treatment.” “I want to apologize to everyone that I have alarmed and upset with my past behaviour,” they added. “I am committed to doing the necessary work to get back to a healthy, safe and productive stage in my life.” The Vermont episode was only the latest in a series of arrests and criminal accusations which have been following Miller for months, though it appears the burglary charge may have finally convinced them to seek help. The news comes at the end of weeks of terrible PR for Warner Bros., who came under fire last week for cancelling the Latina woman-led Batgirl while supporting a star with multiple abuse allegations. Warner Bros. Discovery, which also produces and distributes the controversy-ridden Fantastic Beasts franchise, have so far failed to comment on Miller’s statement. The Flash is still scheduled for release next year and reportedly sees Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton returning as multiple incarnations of Batman.
