Twitter reacts to Ezra Miller's apology: 'Rather see him arrested'
"I wanna believe it, but I honestly can't until I see him trying to get himself back on the right path. It can be done, he just has to make the effort to do so," one of the comments read. "Here comes the apology tour so the studio can release The Flash," another wrote. "WB Discovery are considering 3 scenarios for ‘THE FLASH’: 1) Ezra Miller giving an interview explaining their erratic behavior & then doing limited press 2) Ezra Miller plays no part in the film’s promotion 3) They completely scrap the film” Guess they went with Option 1," a tweet said.
"So they announce the film might be canx and now and apology? anyway hope they get the help they need," one of the fans opined. "Don’t get mad at me for this But while I don’t condone or support ezra’s actions at all, I do think this was the best case scenario for both Ezra and Warner Bros. I mean, can’t just poorly market a film without the star, and can’t just throw all that work away," a fan tweeted. "Lol Discovery really wants to release The Flash don't they?" a fan mocked.
The slamming and the sarcasm was evident on social media. "It’s ok Ezra Miller, we forgive you for harassing customers at a Hawaii bar… twice, having a relationship with a minor, breaking into a home, staying at a Vermont farm house and having guns and ammunition that are easily accessible to kids, and burglary. We forgive you!!!!!!!!!!"
