October 22, 2014: Ray Fisher Talks Cyborg and "Batman v Superman"

Ray Fisher In an interview with Entertainment Weekly actor Ray Fisher, who has been cast to play Cyborg in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", says he had no idea that Warner Bros. were planning a solo Cyborg movie as well...

    "I didn't know the extent to which DC and WB had planned on taking my character," says Fisher, who was hired in March to cameo as Cyborg in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. "When I signed on, I just wanted to be part of this world. But that specific information, I found out then and there. I didn't think I'd be getting my own stand-alone film."

    "I'm a long-game player and didn't see any of this happening until at least my 40s," Fisher says. "It's a huge honor, but a bit of pressure comes along with it. My mind is just boggled right now."

    In July, the actor wrapped shooting his part for Batman v Superman, scheduled for release in March 25, 2016. He remains tight-lipped about plot-points and potential spoilers but confirmed meeting certain super-friends on set: Gal Gadot (Wonder Woman), Jason Momoa (Aquaman) and Ben Affleck (Batman). Fisher also bonded with fellow New Jersey-ite Jesse Eisenberg, who portrays super villain Lex Luthor in the movie.

    "I met everyone in the Justice League except Henry Cavill and Ezra Miller," Fisher says of the actors who respectively portray Superman and the Flash within the DC Cinematic Universe. "It was surreal. You get this idea of going to work on a Hollywood set as being really stressful and nerve-wracking. But it blew that stereotype away. If they did have stressful times, it wasn't while I was there."

So what were Fisher's final thoughts on what fans can expect from "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice"?

    "Let me tell you, man," Fisher says with a laugh, "people are in for a hell of a treat."
