Warner Bros. fired a major shot at the Snyder Cut campaign this week after accusing the fan-driven movement of being fueled by bots and fake accounts. The years-long campaign which kickstarted following the release of Justice League's theatrical cut generated a lot of fanfare and ultimately forced WB and DC Films to release the four-hour cut of the film last year.

An exclusive report from Rolling Stone claims that the #ReleaseTheSnyderCut brigade was "made up of real and fake authors that spread negative content about WarnerMedia for not restoring the 'SnyderVerse.'" The report also claims that there were "three main leaders" backing the movement "which gives them the ability to influence public opinion."

Now, Cyborg actor Ray Fisher who has had major beef with WB executives for years is breaking his silence on the latest allegations the Snyder Cut movement is facing. Unsurprisingly, Fisher doesn't believe any of the claims and even said that it's a failed attempt at overshadowing the digital release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League which hit stores today, July 19th.

In a fiery retort on Twitter, Fisher called out Rolling Stone reporter Tatiana Siegel and wrote: "Exclusive: Waning reporter (@TatianaSiegel27) fails to overshadow digital release of ‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’ with contrived hit piece—Warner Bros. mourns. Sources say reporter still butt hurt after being called out on lies in 2021."

Interestingly, WB's latest shot comes just days before San Diego Comic-Con where DC fans intend to relaunch the #RestoreTheSnyderVerse movement in full. Things are heating up for sure.

Both versions of Zack Snyder's Justice League are streaming on HBO Max.
