Los Angeles: In a backlash against sexual haras- sment, actor Ezra Miller has come out with his own # MeToo story, recou- nting how an unnamed director and producer took advantage of him when he was a minor.

It was about time that people in Hollywood knew what kind of behaviour is acceptable and what is not, Miller told The Hollywood Reporter.

“It’s a great fu* kin’ age of being like, ‘ You know what? That shit’s unacceptab­le,’ And it’s amazing for a lot of us to watch. ‘ Cause, like, we all knew it was unacceptab­le when we fu* king survived it.

“They gave me wine and I was underage,” Miller recounted, without taking any names.

“They were like, ‘ Hey, want to be in our movie It’s a great fu* kin’ age of being like, ‘ You know what? That shit’s unacceptab­le,’ And it’s amazing for a lot of us to watch. ‘ Cause, like, we all knew it was unacceptab­le when we fu* king survived it.
