Ray Fisher’s allegations about abuse of power on the set of Justice League continue to get more serious, and there’s no sign that the young actor, who played Cyborg in the film, is likely to back down any time soon. Fisher alleges that director Joss Whedon and producers Jon Berg and Geoff Johns behaved poorly during the Justice League production, and that attempts were made by studio executives to cover for them.
But now he has another powerful ally in the form of his Justice League teammate, Jason Momoa.
While Momoa didn’t offer any detailed comment on Fisher’s allegations, he did add his support via Instagram Stories, where he posted an image of Fisher with the hashtag #IStandWithRayFisher
Fisher responded enthusiastically with his own tweet:
While Fisher is a relative newcomer in the business, Momoa is now a bonafide franchise star, having headlined to the billion dollar grossing Aquaman movie. Momoa’s show of support comes after Warner Bros. issued a statement on Friday attempting to clarify where they stood in regard to Fisher’s allegations.
We reproduce that statement here in full courtesy of Deadline:
Fisher, for his part, has been doubling down on his allegations, specifically in recent days that Warner Bros. has been trying to “discredit” him and his story. He posted a long video to his Instagram discussing this on September 7, which you can watch in full here…
It doesn’t look like this fight is going away any time soon, and Fisher seems determined to get his side of the story out there.
