'Flash' star Ezra Miller's apology isn't a get-out-of-jail-free card, experts say
One was that Miller would seek professional help, give an interview about their erratic behavior and do limited press for the film before its planned cinematic release.
"Is it possible for a redemption? Yes," said Robert Thompson, a professor at Syracuse University and a pop culture expert."You point out Robert Downey Jr. and Winona Ryder. Those were much simpler situations. … As long as one isn't behind bars, I think there are possibilities that careers can be managed."
Miller's future isn't the only factor. In addition to the potential impact on victims and their families, Miller's actions have also directly impacted Warner Bros. Discovery's reputation, and at a particularly vulnerable time for the company. After all, new CEO David Zaslav has a very different strategy for running the company, especially its streaming business.
Freinberg said he suspects the statement from Miller was made partially because the actor came to terms with some of their challenges and partially because of pressure from the studio following their felony charge.For Warner Bros., the path to releasing"The Flash" has become easier, industry experts told CNBC.
