‘The Independent’ detailed the video, reporting, “In response, [Miller] says ‘Oh, you wanna fight? That’s what you wanna do?’ before grabbing her by the neck and pushing her into the back wall of an aisle truck parked behind her.” A man is heard off-camera exclaiming “whoa, bro, bro, bro” then cut the video as Miller seemingly forces the woman to the ground.

The video clip has sparked some serious backlash on social media. The video was first posted to Reddit, with a thread that read, “DC’s Flash actor Ezra Miller chokes out a female fan in Iceland after challenging her to a fight. It happened two days ago and the mainstream media is oddly silent.” This prompted some users to admit they found the video to be fake and that the whole thing seemed contrived. Meanwhile, other users were outraged which caused Miller to trend on Twitter.

The hashtag #ezramillerisoverparty began trending as most of the users admitted that it wasn’t okay to choke anyone, playing around or not. One person tweeted out, “Good morning, good morning, good morning. Not you, Ezra Miller, you can choke.#ezramillerisoverparty." Meanwhile, another user wrote, “Ezra Miller ch*ked a fan and slammed them on the ground…we need a new lead for The Flash ASAP. if nothing happens then that just proves even further no one cares about safety of women. #ezramillerisoverparty .”

While Miller has yet to issue a response to the video, Twitter is seemingly having a field day.

Perhaps more notably, Miller was cast as Barry Allen, otherwise known as ‘The Flash’ in the DC Universe.
