The Flash is reported as being in post-production.

The Stand star reportedly refused to leave the home of an acquaintance in Germany until the woman called police after repeated requests that they leave. 

It was reported last month that the investigation had been dropped due to Ezra’s no longer being in the country.  

The troubled actor has been arrested twice in Hawaii this year, once for disorderly conduct and harassment and another time for second-degree assault.
