Variety edited the quotes it exclusively got from a woman about the incident where she was choked in Iceland by actor Ezra Miller, replacing her references to Miller as a male with Miller's "they/them" pronouns. Miller, known for roles in the "Fantastic Beasts" franchise and for playing DC superhero "The Flash," was caught on film in the incident outside the Prikið Kaffihús bar in Reykjavik in April 2020, just as the coronavirus pandemic had swelled. Variety included a quote from the woman, calling out the fact that she used incorrect pronouns to address Miller. Variety’s version of her quote is listed below. "All of a sudden, [they’re] on top of me, choking me, still screaming in my face if I want to fight.
My friend who’s filming sees [they’re] obviously not joking and it’s actually serious, so he stops filming, and pushes [them] off me as [they’re] still trying to fight me.Two guy friends of mine are actually holding [Miller] back as [they’re] screaming, ‘This is what you wanted! This is what you wanted!’" Variety's reporters added, "(At the time of the interview, it was unclear whether the woman was aware Miller uses they/them pronouns.)" Some Twitter users expressed confusion at the language in the article. The 26-second video, which went viral, shows Miller ask the woman, "Did you wanna fight? Is that what you do?" before grabbing her by the throat.
In the video, Miller, with hands still on the woman, pushes her up against a metal structure and then throws her to the ground. The person recording can then be heard saying "Whoa, bro. Bro.
Bro," and stops filming. Ezra Miller of Sons of an Illustrious Father performs at Omeara on December 08, 2018 in London, England. (Photo by Burak Cingi/Redferns) The woman in
