Entertainment <a href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/gal-gadot-joss-whedon-justice-league-threatened-career-182149086.html\">reported<\/a> that Gadot made the allegations in an interview with Israeli media outlet N12, saying, \u201cI had my issues with Joss, and I handled it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe threatened my career and said that if I do something, he will make sure my career is miserable and I took care of it on the spot,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>Gadot did not elaborate on what led to the incident, but The Hollywood Reporter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hollywoodreporter.com\/movies\/movie-news\/ray-fisher-opens-up-about-justice-league-joss-whedon-and-warners-i-dont-believe-some-of-these-people-are-fit-for-leadership-4161658\/\">quoted<\/a> a witness who told the outlet: \u201cJoss was bragging that he\u2019s had it out with Gal. He told her he\u2019s the writer and she\u2019s going to shut up and say the lines and he can make her look incredibly stupid in this movie.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This source also told THR that Gadot had \u201cissues about her character being more aggressive than her character in\u00a0<em>Wonder Woman<\/em>. She wanted to make the character flow from one movie to the next.\u201d But the biggest issue Gadot had with Whedon was when he tried to get her to record lines she didn\u2019t feel were right. That\u2019s when Whedon allegedly threatened Gadot\u2019s career and even disparaged the director of \u201cWonder Woman,\u201d Patty Jenkins.<\/p>\n<p>At the time, THR reported that Gadot and Jenkins took the issue to Warner Bros., which led to a meeting with then-chairman Kevin Tsujihara. Gadot told THR at the time: \u201cI had my issues with [Whedon] and Warner Bros. handled it in a timely manner.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gadot is far from the only person to have issues with Whedon. Actor Ray Fisher, who played Cyborg in \u201cJustice League,\u201d alleged last summer in a <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ray8fisher\/status\/1278362556214755329\">tweet<\/a> that Whedon\u2019s \u201con-set treatment of the cast and crew of\u00a0<em>Justice League<\/em>\u00a0was gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable.\u201d While supporting Fisher, Gadot at the time alluded to her own problems with Whedon, telling The Los Angeles Times that her experience with him \u201cwasn\u2019t the best.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fisher\u2019s tweet resulted in an investigation against Whedon\u2019s behavior, as well as whether producers Geoff Johns and Jon Berg enabled the director\u2019s behavior. As THR reported, the \u201cinvestigation concluded in December, with Warner Bros. releasing little detail beyond saying that \u2018remedial action has been taken.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Whedon has also faced allegations from Charisma Carpenter, who played Cordelia Chase on \u201cBuffy the Vampire Slayer\u201d and \u201cAngel,\u201d who accused Whedon of having \u201ca history of being casually cruel\u201d to those he worked with. She also alleged Whedon created \u201chostile and toxic work environments.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJoss Whedon abused his power on numerous occasions while working together on the sets of Buffy the Vampire Slayer and Angel,\u201d she wrote. \u201cThe disturbing incidents triggered a chronic physical condition from which I still suffer. It is with a beating, heavy heart that I say I coped in isolation and, at times, destructively.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As The Cut <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecut.com\/2021\/04\/joss-whedons-controversies-and-alleged-bad-behavior-a-guide.html\">documented<\/a>, after Fisher and Carpenter\u2019s allegations, more actors came forward with their own accusations against Whedon, including his ex-wife, who alleged the director only pretends to be a woke feminist to hide his infidelities.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
