Actress Charisma Carpenter has responded to Joss Whedon's recent comments about Justice League stars. Whedon recently did an interview with Vulture, where he opened up about allegations that have been leveled against him in the past year. The director and showrunner has been accused by multiple people of abusive, sexist, and unprofessional behavior on the set of his many films and TV shows, including Buffy, Angel, Firefly, and Justice League. One of the people who shared their negative experiences working with Whedon is Carpenter, who shared a lengthy explanation on Twitter in 2021. Carpenter played Cordelia Chase on Whedon's Angel from 1999 — 2004.
Whedon seems to remember things differently, giving his response to her allegations in the interview, saying that most «experiences with Charisma were delightful and charming.» Also in the interview, Whedon responds to allegations from both Gal Gadot and Ray Fisher, both who have claimed that the director was unprofessional and even threatened their careers during reshoots for Justice League, saying that Gadot may have misunderstood him due to English being her second language, while going on to call Fisher a «malevolent force» as well as a «bad actor in both senses.» Both Fisher and Gadot have already responded to Whedon's comments, but now Carpenter is chiming in.
