Ezra Miller has claimed that Hollywood actors are sex workers in the wake of the #MeToo movement.
Ezra, who in recent years has become a queer icon and refuses to gender identify, has revealed his own experiences of predatory behaviour in the industry, claiming that a director and producer, who he wouldnt name, gave me wine and I was underaged.
They were like, “Hey, want to be in our movie about gay revolution?” And I was like, “No, you guys are monsters.” It”s a great f***in age of being like, “You know what? That shits unacceptable,” and its amazing for a lot of us to watch, he told The Hollywood Reporter.
Because, like, we all knew it was unacceptable when we fucking survived it. Thats what Hollywood is. I thought we all knew we were sex workers.
Ezra stars in the upcoming Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes Of Grindelwald – and although his own character in the film franchise, Credence Barebone, has a strong queer subtext – he recently offered fans an insight into the controversy that has claimed Professor Dumbledores relationship with Gellert Grindelwald will not be touched upon in the new film.
Its a funny idea to me that every form of representation has to look the same, the 26-year-old shared.

For me, personally, I find Dumbledores queerness extremely explicit in this film. I mean, all around. He sees Grindelwald, his young lover whos the love of his life; he sees him in the Mirror of Erised. What does the Mirror of Erised show you? Nothing more than the most desperate desire of your heart.
He added: If thats not explicitly gay, I dont know what is.
