Martin Freeman defended the age gap controversy with Jenna Ortega in Miller’s Girl, emphasizing that the 31-year difference served the film’s narrative purpose while critics and fans debated its appropriateness.
The 52-year-old British actor told The Times in an article published on Saturday (April 27) that the dramedy centered on an improper relationship between a teacher and a student.
Consequently, Martin argued that the film intentionally portrayed characters with significant age discrepancies, underscoring its thematic essence.
