Ezra Miller Makes Rare Appearance in Italy, Gives First Public Comments in Years & Addresses Their 'Crucible'

Ezra Miller is opening up in their first public comments in years.

The 32-year-old actor, who goes by they/them pronouns, made a rare appearance at the Filming Italy event on Wednesday (June 19) at Forte Village Resort in Santa Margherita di Pula, Italy.

Ezra posed for photos alongside Milla-Alexia Gojkovic at the event. He also met up with event organizer Tiziana Rocca.

During an interview, Ezra addressed their “crucible,” which is defined as a “severe test or trial.”

Back in 2022, Ezra was arrested in Hawaii after an incident at a karaoke bar. They were also accused of harassing a woman in Germany, allegedly hosted three young children and their mom in Vermont in an “unsafe environment,” and were charged with felony burglary in the state. They were also accused of having an inappropriate relationship with a young person they met at age 12. The harassment order against Ezra was lifted in June 2023.

Ezra gave an interview to several press outlets while attending the conference.

“When we go through those crucibles, if we can survive, which was up in the air for me if I’m being real, we then have that capacity to see other people in their crucibles and just to reach towards them. I think that grows more and more rarefied in our world too. Like, the capacity to do that, the desire to do that, the willingness to do that. We’ve become very consumed in notions of perception, self-perception, how we’re perceived in the world. I really believe in digging past that and being a friend to people. And the people who did that for me, they have my lifelong devotion,” Ezra told Lo Speciale Giornale.

They added, “And also I’m grateful for the revelations of who was not that. When you work in this industry, you’ll find yourself in deep, deep relation with a lot of people who do not give a single f–k about you, or your well-being, at all. And so, not that I don’t hold a lot of remorse and lamentation for a lot of things that I did and a lot of things that happened in that time, but I’m really, really grateful for the lessons that came with that abyss.”

While they weren’t photographed, Ezra did make an appearance at the Cannes Film Festival last month.
