oh i haven't seen Stutz but i've seen him in "Maniac" together with Emma Stone where he also plays a mentally ill dude who goes through stuff lol
however, ever since it was revealed that Shia Laboeuf abused his ex FKA twigs really bad, i'm not really that surprised anymore about all these successful but vulnerable and mentally unwell dudes who really should know better, turning into abusive assholes to their partners after all bc they think the whole world is beneath them and belongs to them…

well like in real life, there are mentally stable and unstable people and people who have a good, supportive and considerate environment and people who have no one to turn to during bad times.
those child actors who are mentally stable enough and have a good support system looking after them can weather all the hardships that come with their fame and a lost childhood, like Christian Bale, Reese Witherspoon, Neil Patrick Harris, Zendaya and turn their early entrance into the industry into a longstanding, prolific career. but those child actors who don't have that, and are just mentally unfit to deal with all that, fall by the wayside. just look at Macauly Culkin and his brother Kieran Culkin. Macauly never made it once he grew up and his career was ruined bc of his drug addiction, Kieran is still working in top productions after all these years.
and then there are those that quit and completely abandoned their public life bc they saw their mental health going to ****, such as the Olsen twins.

Shia is a creep too? Fuck. Why… I love him and just watched a movie with him I loved. Hopefully he's sincere about changing course.
If I find out David Lynch is abusive, I'm putting a shotgun in my mouth. Im just being dramatic, but I'm tired of people I like being ****.

She went through some **** though, and she was pushed to do some B movie nudity post-Disney. I think she drank too. Glad she came out on top.
Mara Wilson is one who seemed to not be negatively affected by child stardom love her and grew up watching Matilda.
I think she's been on Christy's channel.

FKA twigs Sues Shia LaBeouf, Citing ‘Relentless’ Abusive Relationship
The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles by the musician, accuses the actor of sexual battery, assault and infliction of emotional distress.
Just after Valentine’s Day in 2019, the musician FKA twigs was in a car speeding toward Los Angeles. At the wheel was her boyfriend, the actor Shia LaBeouf. He was driving recklessly, she said in a lawsuit filed on Friday, removing his seatbelt and threatening to crash unless she professed her love for him.
They were returning from the desert, where Mr. LaBeouf, the star of “Transformers,” had raged at her throughout the trip, FKA twigs said in the lawsuit, once waking her up in the middle of the night, choking her. After she begged to be let out of the car, she said he pulled over at a gas station and she took her bags from the trunk.
But Mr. LaBeouf followed, and assaulted her, throwing her against the car while screaming in her face, according to the suit. He then forced her back in the car.
The gas station incident is at the heart of the lawsuit that says Mr. LaBeouf, 34, abused FKA twigs physically, emotionally and mentally many times in a relationship that lasted just short of a year. Her aim in coming forward, she said in an interview, was to explain how even a critically acclaimed artist with money, a home and a strong network of supporters could be caught in such a cycle.

The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, says that Mr. LaBeouf knowingly gave Ms. Barnett (FKA twigs' real name) a sexually transmitted disease. It accuses him of “relentless abuse,” including sexual battery, assault and infliction of emotional distress.
Mr. LaBeouf and his representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the lawsuit.
Karolyn Pho, a stylist who is another of Mr. LaBeouf’s former girlfriends, described similarly tumultuous experiences to The Times, some of which are also outlined in the lawsuit.
Once, the suit says, he drunkenly pinned her to a bed and head-butted her, enough that she bled. Afterward, she began to grapple with the idea that he was abusing her.
“So much goes into breaking down a man or woman to make them OK with a certain kind of treatment,” she said in an interview.

Mr. LaBeouf has a long history of turbulent behavior. He has been arrested several times on charges that have been dismissed, including assault and disorderly conduct, according to newspaper reports and public records. In 2015, strangers recorded video of him arguing with his girlfriend at the time, the actress Mia Goth, telling her, “This is the kind of thing that makes a person abusive.” After the men recording Mr. LaBeouf gave him a ride, he told them: “If I’d have stayed there, I would’ve killed her,”
according to the video.
Ms. Barnett said Mr. LaBeouf would squeeze or grab her to the point of bruising. But she did not go to the police, she said, first out of a misguided concern about harming his career, and later because she thought her account would not be taken seriously, and it would be futile.

In an abusive relationship, there’s often a “honeymoon phase,” as some experts call it, that builds intimacy and sets a benchmark for how happy the romance could be. It serves as a powerful lure; though flashes of bliss may remain, they are meted out through increasingly controlling demands and impossible standards of behavior.
In the lawsuit, Ms. Barnett and Ms. Pho said that Mr. LaBeouf did not like it if they spoke to or looked at male waiters; in an interview, Ms. Barnett said she learned to keep her eyes down when men spoke to her. She also stated in the suit that Mr. LaBeouf had rules about how many times a day she had to kiss and touch him, which he enforced with constant haranguing and criticism.
Mr. LaBeouf convinced Ms. Barnett to stay with him in Los Angeles, she said, rather than move back to London where she and her professional circle lived. It was a step toward her isolation, she said. And he would often say that her creative team used her, a message that eventually led her to doubt them.
But living with him became frightening, she said. The lawsuit says that he kept a loaded firearm by the bed and that she was scared to use the bathroom at night lest he mistake her for an intruder and shoot her. He didn’t let her wear clothing to bed, and would spin a trifling disagreement — over an artist she liked and he didn’t, for example — into an all-night fight, depriving her of sleep, the suit says.
The situation came just as she was completing what became her most critically lauded album, “Magdalene.” Ms. Barnett said she found herself in stasis, struggling to fulfill her professional duties, and confounding her friends and colleagues. “Twigs is always the driving force behind her career — always a step ahead of everyone else,” said her lon
