During a recent interview with N12, Gal Gadot opened up about her experience working with Joss Whedon on the set of “Justice League.” The actress revealed that Whedon had threatened to ruin her career, which has since been followed by allegations of abuse and unprofessionalism from actor Ray Fisher. Despite this, Gadot claims she “handled” the situation and spoke out against the director. As a result, she has become an advocate for change in Hollywood and hopes to create a safer environment for all actors and crew members.

According to her statement, the actress revealed that she had faced threats to her career from Joss Whedon and had to take care of the situation herself. This comes after Ray Fisher’s accusations of Whedon’s unprofessional conduct on the set of “Justice League” last year, which led other actors to speak out as well. Gadot added that she had also faced issues with Whedon but praised Warner Bros. for handling the matter promptly.
Charisma Carpenter, the actress who portrayed Cordelia Chase in Joss Whedon’s “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “Angel” series from 1997 to 2004, accused Whedon of emotional abuse while on set. She alleged that he made light of his misconduct and traumatized her. Carpenter’s Twitter post included the hashtag #IStandWithRayFisher. Other co-stars such as David Boreanz and Michelle Trachtenberg have also spoken out about Whedon’s behavior. Despite these allegations, representatives for Whedon have not issued a comment in response to HuffPost’s request. The situation is becoming increasingly serious.
