In a recent TikTok video, troubled actor Ezra Miller offers to “knock out” a store employee who requests a selfie.
The happy store employee who smiles apprehensively when Miller demands a reaction to the threat of violence is shown in the video with The Flash actor, 29, who has recently been embroiled in a number of disputes and altercations.
I simply wanted a picture dawg! is the caption for the strange 10-second movie, which was re-posted by the TikTok user @peterknight2800 on Sunday. It has received over 3.5 million views.
Miller, who identifies as non-binary and uses they/them pronouns, says at the beginning of the film, “It’s a choice I present people with, constantly.”
He continues, “I can always just knock you out and then you won’t have to panic.”
The store employee agrees, not quite understanding Miller’s point, “Okay, you’re simply going to knock everybody out.”
Miller answers calmly yet menacingly, “You just let me know.”
Yes, the employee replies.
‘No? Yes’? Miller exerts force.
Before the video ends, the store employee turns to face Miller and asks, “What?” while giggling nervously. He then starts to grasp Miller’s point of view.
The incident was only one of several conflicts the Justice League actor had, and social media users who commented on the video were noticeably unimpressed.
One person said, “Ezra is insane; I’d also be frightened that he’d randomly knock out my teeth.”
Another person remarked, “They’re so menacing for no reason.”
After being detained twice in Hawaii earlier this year and having a list of recent problems that dates back to 2020, the actor was said to be keeping a low profile.
The singer shut their Instagram account in June following a series of images that included, among other baffling posts, an image that stated, “You cannot touch me I am in another dimension.”
In Hilo, Hawaii, earlier this year, the couple who were hosting the hot-tempered 29-year-old allegedly made threats, grabbed the husband’s wallet, and stole the wife’s passport.
According to Radar Online, the trio had gotten along before the March 28 incident after first meeting at a farmer’s market.
Shortly after the husband posted the $500 bond for the couple’s arrest on March 28 for disorderly behavior and harassment, which included spitting in someone’s face at karaoke club Margaritas Village, Miller allegedly burst into the couple’s bedroom and yelled “I will bury you and your sl** wife.”
After the actor allegedly threw a chair at a woman’s head when she ordered them to leave her home, they were then detained a second time in Hawaii.
Police reacted to claims of an incident in a subdivision on the major island of the archipelago, and the star was detained for second-degree assault.
Additionally, a video from Iceland in 2020 shows Miller choking out a female fan.
Last month, Miller received a new restraining order due to allegations that the actor harassed a 12-year-old non-binary child and made a gun threat to the child’s mother after accusing her of cultural appropriation.
Warner Bros. had an emergency meeting the day after their first arrest in Hawaii for spitting in someone’s face to suspend projects they were working on.
