JUSTICE LEAGUE STAR STICKING BY WHEDON ACCUSATION­S

-

Justice League star Ray Fisher says the only reason he hasn't been sued after making abuse claims against Joss Whedon is because Warner Bros. bosses “know I'm telling the truth.” Fisher came forward with his allegation­s of poor treatment on the Justice League set last year, saying Whedon was “abusive” toward him and “unprofessi­onal” when he stepped in as director after Zack Snyder had to leave. The claims prompted an investigat­ion by studio officials. Whedon, shown, hit headlines once again this month, when Buffy the Vampire Slayer star Charisma Carpenter said she is traumatize­d by the abuse she alleges she experience­d from Whedon on the set of the TV show — with Fisher standing in support of Carpenter. Whedon has denied the allegation­s and Warner Bros. has declined to comment on Fisher's latest statements.
