Justice League Star Ray Fisher on Why He Can't Say More About Joss Whedon Abuse


Zack Snyder's Justice League coming out is a good thing since we'll be able to see the vision he originally had for the movie before Warner Bros. messed it up. This is also great since we won't have to think about the movie Joss Whedon made because the supposed feminist director isn't exactly beloved right now. Cyborg actor Ray Fisher called out the director and alleged that he was abusive to cast and crew alike.

Despite showing his support to victims of Whedon, Fisher hasn't been able to detail more of his issues with the director. Why? Well, while on Instagram Live (via Crisis on Two Universes), the actor stated that he is still under contract for DC and Warner Bros. so he has to be careful with his wording. Obviously, he wants to say more but that appears to be out of his control right now. Then again, his opening salvo was already pretty damning.

"For the folks who were looking for more specifics in the moment right now, I'm sorry that I cannot give them to you in the moment right now. Just gotta make sure all your ducks are laid out in a row so you can go ahead and handle the situation appropriately so you don't end up being, outside of professionally liable, legally liable for anything that could be litigious or whatever that would be. This will take some time, we will get it done, we will win, and then we'll be able to move on in the world. That's it."

Whedon has yet to respond to these allegations so it will be interesting to see what the next chapter of this situation is. It wasn't too long ago when Whedon was called out by his ex-wife for his numerous affairs while working on shows like Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Sure, you could argue that cheating on your wife is different from being abusive to cast and crew members but it's just not a good look for Joss Whedon right now.

The Snyder Cut of Justice League will be coming to HBO Max sometime next year.
