Actor Ezra Miller has opened up about what his queer identity means to him, telling the that they reject the gender binary.

“I don’t identify," they said.

"Like, f**k that."

Miller added: “Queer just means no, I don’t do that. I don’t identify as a man. I don’t identify as a woman. I barely identify as a human.”
The wide-ranging, no-holds-barred - conducted on Miller's farm in Vermont - also touched on the Fantastic Beasts actor's own #MeToo experience.

"They gave me wine and I was underaged," they recalled of an unnamed director/producer duo.

"They were like, 'Hey, want to be in our movie about gay revolution?' And I was like, 'No, you guys are monsters.'"

Miller continued: "It's a great f**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 f**king survived it."

They concluded: "That's what Hollywood is. I thought we all knew we were sex workers."
