If you thought that the dramas associated with Justice League were over, you were very wrong. Almost a year after the broadcast on HBO of the Zack Snyder cut of the film that Joss Whedon inherited a few years earlier. The same one that ended up being a box office and grossing disaster for the DC Universe, things remain tense. Wheedon himself spoke to Vuture a few days ago. In the interview, the director responded to the accusations. Those that, for months, Ray Fisher and Gal Gadot had poured on the director and the treatment received in The Justice League.
Now, Ray Fisher himself – who played Cyborg in the film, a character that was eliminated in Whedon's version – has returned to respond to the director through his own Twitter account. And is not for less. Faced with accusations of Whedon's misbehavior with the actors, the director responded that Cyborg's removal was because “the story didn't make sense”, adding that “Fisher is just a bad actor”. A comment far removed from the position of Zack Snyder, who defined Cyborg as the “heart of the film.”
Regarding Gal Gadot, playing Wonder Woman, she simply denied the accusations of pressure to support her career as a director in exchange for not destroying her career as an actress. An accusation that already resonates from the recordings of Buffy the Vampire Slayer, also directed by Whedon himself.
In any case, Ray Fisher has made reference to Whedon's career and his own future:
Referring to the Avengers movie that Whedon directed, the actor adds, indirectly, that in the face of the lies of some he will continue to celebrate Martin Luther King Day and then continue working. An important fact. Since Ray Fisher was the only African-American actor in The Justice League and that, after Whedon's cut, he ended up being left out of the scene.
At the end of the tweet, “A>E”. Responsibility and entertainment. An acronym that the actor has been using since he began his fight against Whedon and to which more actors have joined.
