Ray Fisher's well-documented issues with Warner Bros. are far from over and if you've been following the Justice League star on social media and paying close attention to the controversy, you would know that he isn't going to back down anytime soon. Not until he gets the "justice" he's been yearning for, at least. Fisher's heated feud with the studio stemmed from the fact that he was allegedly mistreated by director Joss Whedon during filming in 2017.


Fisher also claims that both Warner Bros. and DC removed characters of color from the theatrical cut on purpose, saying "blatantly racist conversations were had and entertained—on multiple occasions—by former and current top-level executives at Warner Bros. Pictures."

Now, the actor is taking another major jab at the studio following a tweet that expresses support for "racial equity and social justice". After Derek Chauvin was found guilty of murdering George Floyd, the black man who sparked the #BlackLivesMatter movement last year, WarnerMedia took to social media to extend its support.


Naturally, their statement which was seen as a "performative gesture" by a lot of people didn't sit well with the Cyborg actor who blew a gasket and lambasted the studio for the said tweet. In a feisty response, Fisher wrote: "How f*cking DARE YOU @WarnerMedia?!?!?! Oh, now I'm pissed...." In a subsequent tweet, Ray even tagged CEO Jason Kilar. Check it out here:


WarnerMedia catching fire from their statement doesn't really come as a surprise anymore as a lot of people are convinced that racism played a major factor in Fisher's horrible experience doing the Justice League reshoots with Joss Whedon. The chances of the actor and the studio mending fences also seem to become more and more unlikely which of course could mean that we may no longer see Fisher return to the DCEU in the near future.


Meanwhile, Zack Snyder's Justice League is still streaming on HBO Max,
