The closer we get to 2020, the crazier the year becomes. Earlier this week, League of Justice Star Ray Fisher turned to his Twitter account to accuse Joss Whedon of improper actions by a filmmaker while on set. According to the actor, Whedon’s actions were “rude, abusive, unprofessional and completely unacceptable.” Now, a few days after the fact, filmmaker Kevin Smith has revealed about the latest episode of his podcast. Fatman Beyond you’ve heard of similar accusations from team members involved in the production.
Remember I went to the Sky Walker set and some people had worked on both Alone and League of Justice? The special effects guy said there was a lot of talk about Zack’s version of the movie on the set of Joss, “Smith told co-host Marc Bernardin.” Again, this is what a type of special effects that worked on both versions of the film told me. But that the [Whedon] it would reduce, rule out and be negative about Zack’s version, which he had seen and all these people had done together without him and stuff. “
Smith added: “The guy had said that he was a little awkward on set because the people he was talking to about not liking that version of the movie were all the people who had helped make that version of the movie, so which I think is probably unprofessional. Like you didn’t do that, especially if you came to help out during a bad time in the director’s life and stuff. But that’s a rumor. “
Joss Wheadon’s on-set treatment of the cast and crew of the Justice League was rude, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable.
It was enabled, in many ways, by Geoff Johns and Jon Berg.

If Smith’s quote was obvious enough, it should be said again: the director did not witness Whedon’s own actions. Rather, he was informed of them by a crew member who worked with Whedon and Snyder on their shots of League of Justice.
Ever since Fisher decided to speak, Berg has issued a statement saying it was “categorically untrue that we allowed any unprofessional behavior, adding that” I remember [Fisher] upset because we wanted him to say ‘Booyah’ which is a well-known saying from Cyborg in the animated series. “
Whedon and his team have yet to comment on the matter.
League of Justice it is now available where movies are sold. Zack Snyder Justice League It will be released sometime next year.
