How to watch Miller's Girl from the UK: The movie with the viral moment fans have labelled 'disturbing'

Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega in Miller's Girl.

Miller's Girl is a new movie starring Martin Freeman and Jenna Ortega that is equally delighting and disturbing fans who have seen the viral clips from the new film.

Miller's Girl is a new movie that was released in the US on January 26th and has shocked fans who have claimed they are 'disturbed' to see 21-year-old Jenna Ortega play Cairo Sweet, an 18-year-old student who begins having a forbidden affair with a 52-year-old married English professor, Jonathan Miller, played by  Martin Freeman.

A clip went viral on social media that showed the Professor reading an erotic scene written by his student and having an erotic fantasy of his student bending and spreading out in front of him on a bed. Needless to say, people were horrified to see the actor who is best known for wholesome characters such as Watson in Sherlock and Bilbo Baggins in The Hobbit, take on such a different role. Similarly, people particularly enjoy seeing Wednesday Addams in a romantic role with a much older man, who'd be better suited to play her father.

"Jenna Ortega and Martin Freeman… I’m uncomfortable," said one viewer."Wait why’s Martin Freeman the 50-odd-year-old sha**ing Jenna Ortega when she’s like 20 these shows are f**ked," said another commenter. "This Jenna Ortega/Martin Freeman film is so gross! So, so, so, so gross!" said yet another.

The shocking nature of the film encourages fans to go to the cinema so they can see what all the hype is about. But how can you watch Miller's Girl from the UK?
