DC Films is moving forward with their projects without Ray Fisher by writing him out of their upcoming The Flash film.
According to The Wrap, Fisher has been officially removed from the film following his recent comments about never working with DC Films and its president Walter Hamada. In a Dec. 30, 2020 tweet, Fisher accused Hamada of trying to undermine WarnerMedia’s Justice League investigation of misconduct and called “the most dangerous kind of enabler.”
Walter Hamada is the most dangerous kind of enabler.
His lies, and WB PR’s failed Sept 4th hit-piece, sought to undermine the very real issues of the Justice League investigation.
I will not participate in any production associated with him.

As late as Jan. 5, Fisher was still speaking out against Hamada. After Hamada’s contract with Warner Bros. was extended, Fisher wrote that “Walter Hamada was working directly with Geoff Johns and Toby emmerich (on Shazam) DURING Justice League reshoots.” Johns, a Justice League producer, was one of the people who created a toxic working environment, according to Fisher’s claims. Others accused by Fisher included director Joss Whedon and producer Jon Berg.
It’s weird how these reactionary announcements from @wbpictures always forget to mention that Walter Hamada was working directly with Geoff Johns and Toby Emmerich (on Shazam) DURING Justice League reshoots…
More soon.
