Cyborg “adjusted” in Justice League reshoots as Warner Bros. unsatisfied with his tone
The tone of Ray Fisher’s Cyborg was “adjusted” in the Justice League reshoots as Warner Bros. felt the film was “too dark” and needed to “lighten up”. Justice League actor Joe Morton, who plays Cyborg’s dad Dr. Silas Stone, told IGN that Cyborg was one of the reasons the studio requested the reshoots:
“I know that with Ray [Fisher], the young man who plays Victor, there were some adjustments that they made in terms of the tone of that character. I think what I heard was that there was a need from the studio to lighten up the film in a way, that the film felt too dark. I don’t know what that meant in terms of how it actually got translated in terms of the reshoots but that’s what I heard. That’s what I thought some of the reshoots were about.”
“There were adjustments in terms of the tone of [Cyborg]. The studio needed to lighten up the film, [it] felt too dark. That’s what some of the reshoots were about.”
And we can see the changes they made to his character when Justice League arrives on November 17th, see its latest trailer below in the meantime:
