Ezra Miller is facing some serious backlash after a video appeared to show them choking a fan.

In the video, Miller, who is currently playing The Flash in the DC cinematic universe, appears to approach a female fan who is harmlessly goofing around and asks her “Did you want to fight? Is that the deal?” before grabbing her neck and shoving her towards the ground.

The person recording the video says “whoa, bro, bro, bro, bro, bro” as he realizes what’s happening and the footage ends.

A comment on reddit claims that a slightly longer version was originally posted to r/wtf by friends of the girl in the video, but they had to delete it because of an ongoing police investigation.

Another post claims the incident occurred in Iceland.

And a since-deleted tweet appears to claim Miller choked the girl after she jokingly challenged him to a fight.

\u201c@ScottMendelson Twitter evidence \u261d\ud83c\udffdapparently she was joking saying she would win if they had a fight and he took it seriously and chocked her. Anyway I would think 2020 maybe a time for men to stop chocking women. Staged or not.\u201d

While there is incredibly little information to go on at this point, the available footage has fans severely concerned about Miller’s behavior.

\u201cezra miller is a great example of why yall should stop saying someone ended toxic masculinity everytime they wear unblended eyeshadow bc they\u2019ve proven they can reject traditionally masculine aesthetics and still not hesitate to choke a woman to the ground \ud83d\ude01\u201d

Some fans are saying it's important to wait for more details and see what Miller says about the incident before passing judgment, while others insist there really can't be any good reason for their actions.
