Ray Fisher Explains Why Cyborg Movie Is Unlikely

Justice League - Cyborg Ray Fisher

ComicBook.com reports that Ray Fisher, who played Cyborg in Justice League, was asked about the solo Cyborg film at the Heroes & Villains FanFest in New Jersey and seemed to think it’s unlikely to happen due to the potential cost.

“I don’t know. I can’t comment on that specifically, because they don’t tell me anything until the very last minute. There’s a ton of people making those kind of decisions behind the scenes. And it would be a very, very costly movie to make because it is so CGI heavy with Cyborg, because I’m the only member of the League that’s not in a practical costume. You’re going to be looking at $200 million just to make it. So it’s one of those things you have to take into consideration. It’s a numbers game for some people at the end of the day.”

Director Zack Snyder made the decision to go with an almost entirely CGI version of Cyborg.

Warner Bros. did announce a solo Cyborg film way back when they first revealed their original slate of DC movies but nothing happened with it.

All that being said, a new Cyborg has been cast for the Titans and Doom Patrol TV shows and DC is said to be looking for a different actor to play Silas Stone. There don’t seem to be any current plans for Victor Stone to show up in The Flash, though.

Fisher remains positive though that if fans want more of the character, it’ll happen.

“If we keep making noise, it can happen. It’s about what the people want. And that’s what people understand, that’s what they recognize.”
