Ezra Miller gives bizarre interview about ‘tentative' Hollywood return after shocking Cannes appearance
Ezra Miller gave a rare — and peculiar — interview in which they addressed their return to Hollywood as well as their extremely surprising Cannes appearance earlier this year. The actor posed on the red carpet for the first time in two years at the Filming Italy Sardegna Festival in Cagliari, Italy, on Thursday and told Italian outlet, Lo Speciale Giornale, that their relationship to cinema is now 'on tentative grounds'. Miller — who had a slew of legal issues in 2022 — also spoke out about their blink-and-you-miss-it red carpet appearance at Cannes in May, during which they sprinted across the media line at the premiere of Lynne Ramsey's Die, My Love, reports The New York Post's Page Six. 'I came to Cannes to support one of my closest friends in the world who is Lynne Ramsey — who I think is one of the greatest living filmmakers,' Miller said of Ramsey, who previously directed Miller in 2011's We Need to Talk About Kevin. Miller claimed they're writing an unnamed film with Ramsey, and added, 'that will likely be the first thing I do' when returning to Hollywood. 'I've been writing a lot, because you can do that in solitude,' Miller remarked, 'which has been friendly to me'. They also said they'd 'do anything' for Ramsey, despite Cannes being a 'tough re-entry point' to the industry. 'If you've been in the woods for three years, I do not recommend going straight to Cannes, where every photographer and every weirdo, every rich genocidal freak be there, you know what I mean?' The Perks of Being a Wallflower star was memorably arrested and charged in Hawaii following two alleged incidents at a karaoke bar in March 2022, to which they pleaded no contest. Then, they were hit with a restraining order by two residents claiming they harassed and threatened them, which was later dropped. A month later, Miller was arrested on a second degree assault chair after they allegedly threw a chair and hit a woman during an encounter at a private residence. In June 2022, a parent accused Miller of grooming their child from the age of 12. Another parent came forward the same month with an allegation that Miller 'menaced their family one evening in their downstairs neighbour's home and acted inappropriately toward' a 12-year-old minor. No charges were filed against Miller and they later released a statement saying, 'I have been unjustly and directly targeted by an individual who the facts have shown has a history of such manipulative and destructive action'. That same month they were accused of allegedly housing a mother and her three children in an unsafe environment at a Vermont farm — though by August, Miller told cops the family hadn't lived there in months. Also in August 2022, Miller was accused of burglarising a Vermont home and allegedly stealing several bottles of alcohol. They pleaded guilty to misdemeanour unlawful trespass and was put on one-year probation. Miller issued an apology later that month and announced they were seeking treatment. 'Having recently gone through a time of intense crisis, I now understand that I am suffering complex mental health issues and have begun ongoing treatment,' they told Variety at the time. 'I want to apologise to everyone that I have alarmed and upset with my past behaviour. I am committed to doing the necessary work to get back to a healthy, safe and productive stage in my life.' During the interview with the Italian outlet on Thursday, Miller seemingly addressed the drama, waxing philosophical in a rambling set of comments. '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,' they said. '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,' they continued. '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,' they explained. 'And also I'm grateful for the revelations of who was not that,' they said. '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.'

Heather Graham, 55, stuns fans with braless red carpet look after dishing on maintaining her youthful glow
Heather Graham left fans stunned with her braless look at film festival Filming Italy on Thursday. The Boogie Nights alum easily defied her 55 years in a plunging brown-lace and patterned gown - which flashed her ample cleavage - as she posed. Heather kept her make-up minimal and wore her signature flaxen mane side-parted in waves. Graham maintains her youthful appearance by getting 12 hours of sleep a night and doing regular YogaWorks workouts, daily affirmations, and practicing transcendental meditation for 40 minutes a day. 'I work out, eat healthy, do yoga, and mediate,' the Gunslingers actress revealed in her Retreat Magazine cover story last week. 'There's a very hard, sweaty class that I love.' Heather also avoids white flour and refined sugar and she doesn't drink alcohol or do drugs. Heather Graham managed to pull off yet another age-defying look as she sizzled at film festival Filming Italy, which was held at Forte Village Resort in Santa Margherita di Pula, Italy on Thursday 'Eating healthy makes me feel good. I like cooking for myself and other people. And I love when people cook for me. Basically, I like eating,' Graham explained. 'Also, I do affirmations. I think they are very powerful. I work on strengthening my inner loving parent muscle, so I can be supportive and loving to myself. One of my affirmations is, "This is the best time of my life."' Missing from the Independent Spirit Award nominee's side was her boyfriend since 2022, professional snowboarder John de Neufville. And while Heather never married nor had children, she clearly has a bond with the 46-year-old Vertical Change founder's 10-year-old son Johnny. Graham previously romanced silver-screen leading men like Leonardo DiCaprio, Josh Lucas, Edward Burns, Matt Dillon, and the late Heath Ledger. The Chosen Family director-star is also said to have loved and left the likes of Scott Speedman, Corey Feldman, Kyle MacLachlan, James Woods, Adam Ant, Jon Favreau, Elias Koteas, Russell Crowe, Benicio Del Toro, and Matthew Perry. On June 10, Deadline revealed Heather signed on to be a recurring guest star in Mike Flanagan's eight-episode reimagined reboot of Stephen King's 1974 novel Carrie through Amazon MGM Studios, which is scheduled to film through October 17 in Vancouver. And last month, Graham was cast as wronged wife Sophie in Hernán Jiménez's big-screen adaptation of Jane Fallon's novel Getting Rid of Matthew, which begins shooting this October in Toronto. The extramarital affair rom-com will also feature Luke Wilson and Emma Roberts - according to Deadline. The Wisconsin-born blonde's other upcoming films include Nick Simon's 1974-set supernatural horror film Within, A.J. Tesler's inspirational drama Maybe We Should, and Kirill Sokolov's horror thriller They Will Kill You. Heather took a seat beside an unidentified gal pal and Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning actor Shea Whigham, whom she posed for a selfie with at Filming Italy. Graham posed with The Ritual actress Ashley Greene, who wore a sheer striped top with black trousers. The two-time SAG Award nominee then hit the stage and lined up with numerous other celebs including Nathalie Emmanuel, Pom Klementieff, Jane Seymour, and Fran Drescher. Also spotted at Filming Italy was The O.C. alum Mischa Barton wearing a single-strapped white midi-dress with silver sandals.
