At that time, the reshoot scandal of "Justice League" is believed that everyone remembers it, and Joss Whedon, who was the director of the reshoot at the time, was complained by many crew members at that time, including "Wonder Woman" Gale Gadot and "Steel Bone" Ray Fisher, saying that he interfered, threatened the normal work of the actors, and even insulted the actors.
At that time, after the news broke, media fans sided with the prosecutors and made a flood of accusations and insults against Whedon, and soon Whedon was involved in a sexual assault scandal, which made him even more spurned by the world.
Recently, however, Vulture published an article titled "Destroying Whedon." The reporter went to the home of Joss Whedon, who had just gotten married, last spring for an interview. In the article, Whedon did not shy away from talking about the reshoot work of that year, and it was also the first time to respond to the threat and insult to the actors that year.
Whedon first mentioned the reason why he was involved in the reshoot that year: "Warner came to me and asked me to help write something and give a little advice, because I did a good job at Marvel, I didn't think much of it at the time, I thought it was just a single job and accepted it, but I went there and found that this was not the case, they (Warner) had lost confidence in Schneider's future, and they actually wanted me to take over completely." And it was the most regrettable decision of my life. ”
Whedon went on to say: "I took over for about 40 days, and my relationship with the actors has been very strained, they feel that my plans are completely different from Schneider's, and the team management style that comes with them is completely different, Schneider has given them a lot of leniency in terms of script, encouraging them to improvise, but I just want them to follow the script. ”
As for Gal Gadot's accusations, Whedon said: "Gal Gadot once complained to me that I don't understand how to make superhero movies, I can't deny this, what is 'Avengers'? ”
"I never threatened Gal Gadot, I think she misunderstood what I meant, I never threatened anyone, but know that English is not her native language, and I like to use all kinds of metaphors and pompous rhetoric when I speak.
Once we had an argument, I wanted to make a joke to show my firmness, so I said that if she wanted to cut this section, she would have to tie me to the rails and step over my body, and then I was told that I was threatening her about the corpse and that I was going to tie her to the rails. ”
As for the deletion of the steel bone scene and the various bombardments he made to Whedon, Whedon said: "I deleted two of his scenes, one because it didn't make sense from the logic of the story, and the second because Fisher didn't act well. ”
This passage of Whedon does have insiders of the project say that it is true that Whedon was not the only one who thought so, and the audience at the time of the test screening thought that Steelbone was the worst character in the film. Still, Whedon spent hours discussing the changes with Fisher.
According to Whedon, "We were very friendly and respectful when we discussed, and I thought it was an ordinary work conversation, but I didn't expect Refescher to make those remarks on social media." I can only think of one reason to explain Fisher's motives, an actor who is terrible on both levels (acting, moral). ”
Finally, Whedon said: "The advent of the Internet has made me rise, and the modern Internet has dragged me into the water. Perfect symmetry is also the best interpretation for me. ”
It has been so long since Heardden has never talked about it in public, what do you think of the inside story that has been exposed this time?
