北京时间8月22日消息，曾在中国红极一时的美剧《越狱》男主角温特沃斯-米勒正式宣布出柜。米勒是在一封婉拒俄罗斯圣彼得堡国际电影节官方邀请的信函中，承认了自己的同性恋身份。他认为俄罗斯一直以来的反对同性恋的立场，“全面剥夺了像我这样的人活着和公开相爱的权利”。米勒出柜并不让大家意外，他曾被拍到与出柜男星卢克-马可法莱恩(《兄弟姐妹》)拍拖。一直以来同志绯闻不断。以下为公开信原文(附中文翻译)：
Re: St. Petersburg International Film Festival / "Guest of Honor" Invitation
Dear Ms.Averbakh:
Thank you for your kind invitation. As someone who has enjoyed visiting Russia in the past and can also claim a degree of Russian ancestry, it would make me happy to say yes。
However, as a gay man, I must decline。
I am deeply troubled by the current attitude toward and treatment of gay men and women by the Russian government. The situation is in no way acceptable, and I cannot in good conscience participate in a celebratory occasion hosted by a country where people like myself are being systematically denied their basic right to live and love openly。
Perhaps, when and if circumstances improve, I'll be free to make a different choice。
Until then。
Wentworth Miller
亲爱的圣彼得堡国际电影节董事，玛丽亚-阿维尔巴赫女士：
多谢您的盛情邀请。作为一个之前到访贵国有着愉快经历，以及在一定程度上也有贵国的血统的人，我是发自内心地想出席您的盛会。
然而，作为一名同性恋，我不得不拒绝您的邀请。
对于目前俄罗斯政府对待同性恋男女的态度和处理方式，我表示受到深深的困扰。在这样一个国家，一个人们都欣然接受了被剥夺自己爱的权利的国家，我表示自己的良心不会让我接受您的邀请。
或许当情况有所好转的时候，我会给自己足够的时间去做一个不同的选择。
到那时再说吧。
温特沃什-米勒
