‘Justice League’ Star Ray Fisher Signs With CAA
Rising star Ray Fisher has opted to sign with Creative Artists Agency in a highly competitive situation.
Fisher is best known for his role as Victor Stone/Cyborg in the DC cinematic universe. He made his feature film debut in Warner Bros.’ “Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice” last year and will reprise that role in the upcoming “Justice League,” which hits theaters on Nov. 17. The ensemble cast includes Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller, Amy Adams, Willem Dafoe, and Jesse Eisenberg.
Fishers will also star as the superhero in a standalone “Cyborg” movie from Warner Bros. and DC. The project was announced by the studio in 2014, but has not yet moved into pre-production or been dated.
Fisher, a native of New Jersey, gained notice after receiving strong reviews for his portrayal of Muhammad Ali in the Off-Broadway production of “Fetch Clay, Make Man” at the New York Theatre Workshop in 2013. He gained 20 pounds of muscle in order to play the part.
Fisher also appeared in ABC’s period drama “The Astronaut Wives Club” in 2015.
His lawyer is David Weber of Sloane, Offer, Weber & Dern. Fisher was previously unrepresented.
