In a new interview with The Hollywood Reporter, actor Ray Fisher laid out in detail his account of the trouble he suffered onset of Justice League under Josh Whedon and Warner Bros leadership at the time.
One of the biggest surprises from the expose was the alleged “clash” between Gal Gadot and Whedon, who was brought on to finish Justice League after Zack Snyder exited the project due to a family tragedy.
According to The Hollywood Reporter’s reporting, THR quoted “a knowledgeable source” saying that Gadot also had concerns with Whedon’s take on Justice League, including “issues about her character being more aggressive than her character in Wonder Woman. She wanted to make the character flow from one movie to the next.”
“threatened to harm Gadot’s career and disparaged Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins.”
“bragging that he had it out with Gal”“He told her he’s the writer and she’s going to shut up and say the lines and he can make her look incredibly stupid in this movie,”
In a statement to THR, Gadot said,
“I had my issues with [Whedon] and Warner Bros. handled it in a timely manner.”
Previously, the actress said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times in December,
“I wasn’t there with the guys when they shot with Joss Whedon — I had my own experience with [him], which wasn’t the best one, but I took care of it there and when it happened. I took it to the higher-ups and they took care of it. But I’m happy for Ray to go up and say his truth.”
