Who could have imagined that a Justice League movie would these three times after the release still generate these many headlines?
The film, which for years has been the center of a loud conversation about Zack Snyder” Snyder Cut, ” is now also the subject of a retrospective investigation by WarnerMedia, the parent company of Warner Bros. and DC Comics. WarnerMedia apparently investigates abuse of power made during the making of the film – abuse which actor Cyborg has Ray Fisher were suggested to be reviewed under the merger of Time Warner and AT&T.
This morning, Ray Fisher tweeted that WarnerMedia had launched a third party Justice League research into the production of the superhero film, continuing with his focal rejection of the way in which behind-the-scenes production was handled.
I believe this research will show that Geoff Johns, Joss Whedon, Jon Berg (and others) grossly abused their power during the uncertainty of AT & T’s merger with Time Warner.
thank you @WarnerMedia en @ATT for taking steps to ensure a safer workplace for all! ??

We reached out to WarnerMedia about this investigation, but never heard back from them. However, Variety managed to get confirmation that the investigation is actually underway, and the outlet reports that “there have been no findings yet”, “there is no specific timeline for the investigation,” the company will do not conduct public inquiry, and that WarnerMedia does not have a “prejudiced” director Joss Whedon, Geoff Johns, of Jon Berg, the three people Fisher had previously identified as the main subjects of what went wrong on the set.
Fisher’s tweet today also points to unnamed ‘others’ who are also apparently culpable in the mysterious abuse of power that allegedly took place during the making of the film, but it is unclear who these people are. maybe be. Fisher has not made any specific, concrete allegations against anyone in public … yet. I do not accuse him of not informing people online (saxophone is expensive, even for actors of superhero movies), but selfishly it makes this whole conversation difficult to have now, because we have no idea what he even is talked about when he mentions this abuse of power.
Here is a selection of his tweets over the past few months about the incidents in question:
Joss Wheadon’s on-set treatment of the Justice League cast and crew was gross, abusive, unprofessional and completely unacceptable.
He was involved in several ways by Geoff Johns and Jon Berg.

Our sector will not move forward unless we are ready to speak the names of those who prevent this.

I fully understand the personal and professional risks associated with my speeches against the horrific behavior of Joss Whedon and his subordinates – Geoff Johns and Jon Berg.
I will not follow.
This is “good trouble, necessary trouble.”

During the LA reshuffles for Justice League, Geoff Johns called me to his office to try to get me (and my agencies) to grieve for the right chain of command.
He then made a thin paint threat to my career.
This behavior can not continue.

After Fisher’s first statement about this in early July, Jon Berg replied that it was “categorically not true that we engaged in unprofessional behavior” during Justice League. Hopefully this research will come to an end of all.
