Ray Fisher Weighed In on Warner Bros. intentional snub:
It wasn’t long before Fisher himself chimed in, retweeting the Warners post with the message:
OR….you could try spotlighting an apology to the non-fictional Black people affected by your company’s racist and discriminatory practices.
Of course, Warner Bros. declined comment.
When you are in the wrong it appears they have nothing to say.
Fisher has repeatedly called out the studio and director Joss Whedon, who replaced Zack Snyder on Justice League, tearing into the studio on social media for what he called Whedon’s “gross and abusive” behavior on the film and the support Whedon received from Warners’ Toby Emmerich, producers Geoff Johns and Jon Berg and D.C. Films boss Walter Hamada. WarnerMedia conducted an internal probe in late 2020 at Fisher’s urging and later announced that the “investigation into the Justice League movie has concluded and remedial action has been taken.”
How Warner Bros. Pissed off Ray Fisher:
Sarnoff said in an interview with Variety:
Our investigator, Judge Katherine Forrest, has issued statements specifically about Walter Hamada, saying that there was no evidence of interference by Walter in the investigation. She said that the cuts made in the Joss Whedon version of Justice League were not racially-motivated. We took it very seriously, so we hired one of the top investigators out there and gave her a tremendous amount of leeway.
It’s not the first time Fisher has ripped Warner Bros. on social media. When, in the wake of the Derek Chavin trial verdict last year, the studio voiced its “commitment to be a part of the solution by using our platforms…to advance racial equity and social justice.”
Fisher replied:
How f*cking DARE YOU @WarnerMedia?!?!?! Oh, now I’m pissed…
