“Justice League” star Ray Fisher says he will not work on any films associated with DC Films president Walter Hamada after WarnerMedia’s investigation into alleged misconduct on the superhero movie set. The announcement appears to effectively end Fisher’s brief tenure as DC superhero Cyborg following the release of Zack Snyder’s version of the four-hour “Justice League” on HBO Max in 2021.
“Walter Hamada is the most dangerous facilitator,” Fisher tweeted on Wednesday. “He lies, and the success of WB PR failed on September 4, sought to undermine the real issues of the ‘Justice League’ investigation. I will not participate in any production associated with it ”.
Walter Hamada is the most dangerous facilitator.
His lies, and the failed WB PR play on September 4, sought to undermine the real issues of the Justice League investigation.
I will not participate in any production associated with it.

Warner Bros. representatives and Fisher did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
On the night of December 11, WarnerMedia issued a statement saying that the “Justice League” investigation was completed after examining Fisher’s claims that director Joss Whedon participated in unspecified misconduct on the set and producers Geoff Johns and Jon Berg allowed the alleged behavior. WarnerMedia said “corrective action” was taken, but declined to provide further details when pressed for Variety.
The “September The Fourth Hit” that Fisher referred to was a statement by Warner Bros. that Fisher refused to meet with third-party investigators, a claim he denied. The studio’s statement followed a tweet Fisher, in which the actor claimed that Hamada “tried to throw Joss Whedon and Jon Berg under the bus in the hope that I would give in to Geoff Johns,” a claim the studio denied.
Fisher made his accusations public for the first time in July, and WarnerMedia’s investigation began in August. On Twitter, actor Cyborg shared that the company sent him a statement after the investigation was over, saying “WarnerMedia thanks you for having the courage to introduce yourself and help the company create an inclusive and fair work environment for its employees. employees and partners ”.
“There are still conversations that need to be made and resolutions that have to be found,” he added.
Despite Fisher’s numerous public statements and tweets about the investigation and the “Justice League,” he declined to provide specific details about his allegations.
Gal Gadot, who played Wonder Woman in “Justice League” and his two independent films, said Variety that she was interviewed as part of the WarnerMedia investigation.
“I know that they did a very thorough investigation, even just because of the time I spent with them,” she said in Variety’s The Big Ticket podcast. She added that she did not know what the “corrective action” that was taken implied, adding “I am curious to know what the result will be.”
