Justice League Star Ray Fisher Retracts Any Support He Gave To Joss Whedon

Interesting....Honestly I remember when the re shoot was released, I was incredibly disappointed with Joss Whedon behavior. Not only did he changed everything about Justice League with a total disregard for Zack Snyder, he also wouldn't show any support for the crew and actors during the promotional run of the film. I remember that I kept checking his Twitter to see if at least he will throw in a kind word in there for the actors, a good luck guys or anything but nope. I do put a hefty amount of the blame for the failure of the film on Joss Whedon. He basically took a dump on the film and walked away. I'm glad one of the actor publicly called him off on this.

This creepy A list director has been speaking out about injustice, but has been doing his best to silence the people who want to accuse him of the same thing.

Well i think Whedon was hired by WB with the mission to change everything Zack Snyder did! So of course he did it,it was just his job. By the way i think at the same time he knew that his power were limited,because mostly of the movie was already done,so he doesnt really feel that movie like his,so thats the reason he didnt want to do press tour or something similar. Basically he saw this Justice League job not very different from his early jobs as script doctor for movies like Alien Resurrection or X-Men.

I see your point but I still believe that Joss Whedon is a douche bag and a faux feminist. Look at how he treated Charisma Carpenter when she got pregnant as proof of what the guy is really like.

I have no idea what he did to Carpenter, but I agree with your statement. He seems like a douche bag and a fake feminist.

Publicly complaining about someone without saying what you're talking about makes you look like your lying.

Sounds a lot like he's pissed that he didn't get the screen time that was initially promised.

Warner Bros. Says Ray Fisher Not Cooperating with 'Justice League' Investigation - Fisher Responds

https://www.lipstickalley.com/threads/warner-bros-says-ray-fisher-not-cooperating-with-justice-league-investigation-fisher-responds.3884996/

Warner Bros. has accused Justice League actor Ray Fisher of not cooperating with a misconduct investigation and backed its DC Films president Walter Hamada in a statement late Friday night.

Fisher, who played Cyborg in the 2017 movie, had previously alleged misconduct by filmmaker Joss Whedon and producers Jon Berg and Geoff Johns on set. While Fisher has not revealed specifics, the studio did launch an investigation earlier in the summer.

On Monday, Fisher tweeted that Hamada "attempted to throw Joss Whedon and Jon Berg under the bus in hopes that I would relent on Geoff Johns." Johns is a star DC Comics writer and is currently basking in the strong reviews and even stronger sales of the first issue of his latest work, Three Jokers.

In a statement, a studio spokesperson defended Hamada, saying, "At no time did Mr. Hamada ever 'throw anyone under the bus,' as Mr. Fisher has falsely claimed, or render any judgments about the Justice League production, in which Mr. Hamada had no involvement since filming occurred before Mr. Hamada was elevated to his current position."

The studio also stated that Fisher has so far refused to cooperate with the investigation, noting that "to date, Mr. Fisher has declined to speak to the investigator."

This is the latest in a back-and-forth between the actor and the studio that began on July 1, when Fisher tweeted that filmmaker Whedon's "on-set treatment of the cast and crew of Justice League was gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable." (Whedon took over directing duties on Justice League after Zack Snyder stepped away from the project in 2017.) Fisher went on to allege that producers Johns and Berg had enabled the filmmaker and his alleged behavior.

It's the studio fault. They never should have brought him in. Just trying to copy Marvel in every way instead of trying to have their own vision or style.
