Ray Fisher has once again taken to Twitter and this time it’s to deny the rumours he’s reigned as Cyborg form the DCEU. His tweets are pretty adamant and he also calls out the outlets (namely The Wrap) for the articles they’re written about him.
This is a really fascinating story and I’m actually getting rather worried for Ray Fisher’s career. He recently said on Twitter that Walter Hamada was “the most dangerous kind of enabler”. He tweeted this after it was revealed that Warner Bros. Pictures had renewed Hamada’s contract as President of DC Films. This means he’ll be in the job until at least 2023.
Fisher’s been back on Twitter after it was suggested that he had left the role of Cyborg and the DCEU after claiming that he would never work in something that was attached to Walter Hamada. He’s claiming that the rumours he’s out of the DCEU are untrue.

I strongly suggest that @TheWrap amend this article immediately.
While I appreciate the reporter’s undying desire to do @wbpictures and Walter Hamada’s bidding—it is factually inaccurate.
I did not publicly step down from anything.

If @wbpictures has made the decision to remove me from The Flash, rather than address, in any way, Walter Hamada tampering with the JL investigation—that’s on them.
The idea of removing the role, rather than recasting it, is only being used to try to avoid public backlash.

The @wbpictures pr team has struggled to regain control of the narrative ever since they failed to bury me and the JL investigation with their September 4th hit piece—which, unsurprisingly, was written by the same reporter.
(More on WB pr and Johanna Fuentes later…)

The fact is: the Justice League investigation led to @WarnerMedia (and it’s affiliates) parting ways with Joss Whedon.
Geoff Johns will be following suit.
Had Walter Hamada gotten his way, NONE of that would have been possible, and the cycle of abuse would’ve continued.
