Ray Fisher Fires Back at W.B. for Trying to Discredit Him Amid 'Justice League' Investigation

Ray Fisher, the actor who played Cyborg in the Justice League movie, is speaking out after Warner Bros. said he wasn’t cooperating with an investigation into claims he made about misconduct on the set.

The 32-year-old actor previously called out Joss Whedon, the director who replaced Zack Snyder on the project after he had to drop out due to a family emergency.

Joss Wheadon’s on-set treatment of the cast and crew of Justice League was gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable,” Ray has said.

On Friday night, Warner Bros. released a lengthy statement and said that Ray has declined to speak to an independent third party investigator who is looking into the claims.

“Thank you all for the support and for seeing through @wbpictures desperate and scattershot attempt to discredit me to continue protecting those in power. I met with the investigator via Zoom on Aug 26th. Below is an email I sent to my team and @sagaftra immediately after,” Ray tweeted on Saturday.

In the email that Ray sent to his team, he said that he ended the interview early because he felt he needed to consult with his team before proceeding with the call.

Ray added, “It’s also worth noting that I made it clear to the world on Aug 21st that I would be vetting the investigator to ensure a fair and protected process for all witnesses. @wbpictures has escalated this to an entirely different level, but I’m ready to meet the challenge.”

Ray Fisher Isn't Cooperating With Misconduct Investigation, Warner Bros' Says

Warner Bros. claims that Ray Fisher is refusing to cooperate with them in their misconduct investigation after he accused Joss Whedon and producers Geoff Johns and Jon Berg of “gross” and “abusive” behavior on the Justice League set.

The 32-year-old actor, who played Cyborg in the movie, called out Joss, who took over the movie direction from Zack Snyder who had to bow out due to a family issue.

“Joss Wheadon’s on-set treatment of the cast and crew of Justice League was gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable,” Ray expanded on his cryptic tweet where he retracted support of him. “He was enabled, in many ways, by [producers] Geoff Johns and Jon Berg. Accountability>Entertainment.”

Now, Warner Bros’, in the midst of their investigation, are calling on the actor to step up and help them out in the investigation. They claim that he’s refusing to do so.

“In July, Ray Fisher’s representatives asked DC Films President Walter Hamada to talk to Mr. Fisher about his concerns during the production of Justice League. The two had previously spoken when Mr. Hamada asked him to reprise his role as Cyborg in Warner Bros.’ upcoming Flash movie, together with other members of the Justice League. In their July conversation, Mr. Fisher recounted disagreements he’d had with the film’s creative team regarding his portrayal of Cyborg, and complained that his suggested script revisions were not adopted. Mr. Hamada explained that creative differences are a normal part of the production process, and that a film’s writer/director ultimately has to be in charge of these matters,” the statement from the film studio started.

“Notably, Mr. Hamada also told Mr. Fisher that he would elevate his concerns to WarnerMedia so they could conduct an investigation. 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 statement continues, “While Mr. Fisher never alleged any actionable misconduct against him, WarnerMedia nonetheless initiated an investigation into the concerns he’d raised about his character’s portrayal. Still not satisfied, Mr. Fisher insisted that WarnerMedia hire an independent third party investigator. This investigator has attempted multiple times to meet with Mr. Fisher to discuss his concerns but, to date, Mr. Fisher has declined to speak to the investigator. Warner Bros. remains committed to accountability and to the well-being of every cast and crew member on each of its productions. It also remains committed to investigating any specific and credible allegation of misconduct, which thus far Mr. Fisher has failed to provide.”

Ray recently praised Warner Bros for launching an independent investigation.
