Gal Gadot has confirmed reports that director Joss Whedon threatened her career during production on 'Justice League' in 2016.
Gal Gadot's co-star on the movie, Ray Fisher, had previously claimed "Joss Whedon’s on-set treatment of the cast and crew of Justice League was gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable."
Fisher spoke further about his experience of Whedon being dismissive of the actors and controlling of the script on the 'Justice League' set in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
The publication also had "a knowledgeable source" who claimed that Whedon and Gal Gadot also clashed during the shoot.
The biggest clash came when the director pushed the actress to record lines she didn't like. Whedon then allegedly threatened to harm Gadot's career.
The source said: "He told her he's the writer and she's going to shut up and say the lines and he can make her look incredibly stupid in this movie."
Until this point the 'Wonder Woman' star had only released a statement on the matter reading: "I had my issues with [Whedon] and Warner Bros. handled it in a timely manner."
In a new interview with Israeli news outlet N12 (via EW), Gal Gadot offered confirmation to the anonymous reports.
She said: "He kind of threatened my career and said if I did something, he would make my career miserable and I just took care of it instead."
Whedon took over the 'Justice League' shoot from Zack Snyder after a family tragedy.
The original director's vision for the movie came to fruition in this year's 'Zack Snyder's Justice League'.
