Actor Ray Fisher recently took to his Twitter handle and announced that he had officially been removed from The Flash movie to appear as Victor ‘Cyborg’ Stone. He made a statement last year that he wouldn’t work on any movie produced by DC President Walter Hamada and recently confirmed his exit from The Flash movie. In his tweet, he shared a long note and asked his fans to read it.
In the note, he stated that he had received an official confirmation that Warner Bros. Pictures decided to remove him from the cast of The Flash and added how he strongly disagreed with their decision and stated how it was unsurprising. He further stated that despite the misconception, Cyborg’s involvement in the film was much larger than a cameo and while he mourned the lost opportunity to bring his character back to the screen, bringing awareness to the actions of Walter Hamada would prove to be a much important contribution to the world.
Ray Fisher then stated the details about the time when he made it clear that he will refuse to work on any project associated with Hamada. He then revealed how Hamada was interfering with the Justice League investigation and stated that his ‘dangerous and enabling actions’ during the investigation must be called to account.

The actor even mentioned how he made multiple attempts to have Walter escalate his claims of misconduct against Joss Whedon, Jon Berg and Geoff Johns through proper channels but he went too far by dismissing his certain claims as untrue as he had a personal relationship with Geoff. He then mentioned the details about his further arguments with Walter and ended the note by stating that Hamada was unfit for a position of leadership and was willing to submit a polygraph test to support his claims against Hamada. He also stated that if the end of his time as ‘Cyborg’ was the cost of bringing awareness and accountability to Walter’s actions, he was willing to pay it.

Why wouldn't you name the witnesses for the investigation? Also I've had a seriously cruel boss before, but I would never demand that not only my boss get fired but HIS boss and then THAT guys boss also must get fired or else?! That's an insane demand

Great, so we're left without Cyborg in the Flash movie but we're keeping an abuse enabling executive.

Really disappointing @WarnerMedia#IStandWithRayFisher
Having you portray Cyborg again and again would have been a treat.

Having you stand as a REAL LIFE hero in the face of misconduct, workplace injustice, and social/racial unfairness - that’s priceless.
Proud to be a fan. No matter where your future leads you, sir.

Supporting you 100%. Flash is probably one of my favorite super heroes, but the fact the main character is played by someone who disgust me and now after what they did to you, I have no reason to even watch this movie.
