If you didn’t know that Miles Teller is an actor and I just showed you a photo of his dude-bro face, wouldn’t you think “MAGA anti-vaxxer”? It’s his face. That’s just the vibe he gives off. I have no idea if he’s actually MAGA, but he’s apparently unvaccinated and causing a commotion on the set of The Offer. Miles ended up being the miniseries’ second choice for the lead role after Armie Hammer dropped out in a storm of cannibalism and rapist controversy. The Offer is about the making of The Godfather, and Miles plays Albert S. Ruddy, whose memoir is the source material for the series (holy sh-t, Matthew Goode is playing Robert Evans!!). The miniseries has been filming for a few months, and in July, the production was shut down briefly because…people tested positive for Covid. And Miles was suspected to be the unvaccinated Typhoid Mary.

Whiplash star Miles Teller was unvaccinated and refused a Covid test before testing positive on a Hollywood set, shutting down production, a senior industry source claims. Filming for Paramount Plus Series The Offer was shut down on July 28 after a production member tested positive for the virus, according to a studio spokesperson. And a source close to the executive team for the show told DailyMail.com that that patient is Teller, 34, and that the actor had refused to get a vaccine or a previous Covid test before testing positive on set in Los Angeles.

‘Miles Teller is not vaccinated. He wouldn’t even get the test,’ the source told DailyMail.com. ‘Now he’s brought the virus to the set and the whole set had to shut down.’

The star’s publicist, Lauren Hozempa, told DailyMail.com: ‘Your facts are incorrect,’ but declined to elaborate further.

Property records list Teller’s address as a $2.5 million home in Studio City, Los Angeles. A woman who answered the intercom at the property told DailyMail.com she did not know him, even though a UPS delivery ticket stuck to the intercom was addressed to M. Teller.

Teller, who had a leading role in The Spectacular Now and the Divergent series, stars in The Offer, a show about the making of the blockbuster 1972 movie The Godfather, alongside Giovanni Ribisi, Collin Hanks, Matthew Goode, Juno Temple and Dan Fogler.

‘Out of an abundance of caution, we have temporarily halted production… We will continue to follow all safety protocols and monitor the situation closely,’ a spokesperson for Paramount Television Studios told Deadline. Filming has since resumed for The Offer and Teller returned to the set.

“Your facts are incorrect” – what the hell kind of denial is that? That being said, it’s gross that the Daily Mail sent someone to his home and rang the intercom. I’m not advocating for the harassment of anti-Vaxxers at their homes, come on. Harass them on the street, fire them from their jobs and yell at them online, by all means. But it’s creepy to go to someone’s home. Anyway, SAG-AFTRA needs to mandate vaccines to all of their union members. Every Hollywood production, every studio, every streaming company needs to mandate vaccines for everyone and everything. The end. And Miles Teller seems like a total douche.

Whenever I see Miles Teller on-screen, I’m always taken aback by how he tends to tower over his costars. His height is listed as only six feet, but on-screen, he definitely seems taller and bigger. He seems like he has the kind of presence where other men just avoid f–king with him. Except that two men decided to f–k with him in Maui, where he was vacationing with his wife, Shailene Woodley and Aaron Rodgers. Miles and Keleigh were dining out and Miles got jumped in a restaurant bathroom. This was TMZ’s initial story:

Miles Teller was assaulted during his vacation in Hawaii … TMZ has learned. Law enforcement sources tell TMZ … the incident occurred Wednesday at the Monkeypod Kitchen on the island of Maui, where Miles and his wife, Keleigh Sperry, were eating dinner. Sources who were at the restaurant tell TMZ, Miles was in the bathroom when a man confronted him and punched him in the face. We’re told the 2 got into it outside the bathroom and Miles screamed that he was going to press charges.

Miles and Keleigh left the restaurant … he did not appear to be seriously injured.

We’re told the man who punched Miles allegedly was a wedding planner who claimed Miles owed him $60,000 for services he performed for Miles’ wedding in Maui back in 2019. Our eyewitnesses claim the man was complaining to Miles he had not gotten paid.

Cops confirm the incident went down Wednesday at around 7:30 PM. No one was arrested but cops say they’re investigating.

Hours after TMZ’s story came out, Keleigh took to her IG to say that the part about Miles owing the guy money was false, and that Miles was actually jumped by two men:

Miles Teller’s wife, Keleigh Sperry Teller, is speaking out after her husband was attacked during the couple’s Hawaii vacation this week. Shortly after reports surfaced Friday that the actor was punched in the face at a restaurant in Hawaii, Sperry Teller, 28, released a statement on her Instagram Story, confirming that an altercation had occurred, while disputing reports that it was over an unpaid bill.

“The story reported about Miles being punched in the face by @TMZ over ‘money’ is completely false,” she wrote. “Miles was jumped by 2 men we have never met after they trapped him in a bathroom. It seems these same men have done this to many people and we appreciate your support Maui. This is now a criminal investigation.”

Shailene Woodley, who vacationed in Hawaii with her fiancé Aaron Rodgers and the couple, also shared the message on her Instagram Story.

On Saturday, Teller tweeted in response to Pat McAfee, who mocked the actor’s incident on Twitter with a clip from WWE. “I got jumped by two guys in a bathroom. Never met them before in my life but ya cool wrestling segue bud,” Teller told McAfee, who later apologized.

“…Jumped by 2 men we have never met after they trapped him in a bathroom. It seems these same men have done this to many people…” Ah, so it was like a literal tourist trap scam, they were probably trying to get his wallet or his watch or something. That’s really screwed up. My first thought wasn’t that it was some kind of unpaid wedding vendor or some kind of horrible tourist scam. My first thought was that it could have been something like what happened to Kim Kardashian in Paris, where people were monitoring Keleigh’s social media to figure out where Miles and Keleigh were and that the Tellers were directly targeted. But now it sounds like those two men regularly jump tourists. Awful.
