Ray Fisher in "Cyborg" movie is all set to make his mark in filmdom as the first African-American to play the titular role in a solo superhero film since Will Smith's portrayal of "Hancock" back in 2008. The movie, which is a part of the DC Cinematic Universe, is scheduled for launching in theaters in 2020.
Entertainment Weekly has shared this wonderful news. This is quite an impressive feat for Ray Fisher of "Cyborg" movie, whose acting chops are honed by performing in classical plays at the Shakespeare theater in New Jersey.
Although he is a theater veteran, he has not had any film before. However, he is due to start on the right foot with two big movies lined up for him, as reported by Collider: "Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice" and "Justice League Part One." Aside from these, he would be having his own "Cyborg" movie - and he could never be more pleased with this surprisingly quick development in his career.
Ray Fisher of "Cyborg" movie shares his thoughts on this wonderful turn of events for him, as featured by EW, per Comic Book Resources:
"I didn't know the extent to which DC and WB had planned on taking my character. 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."
The muscular, 6-foot-four thespian started drawing the movie industry's attention when he played the role of Muhammad Ali in the play "Fetch Clay, Make Man." Based on the archives of DC Wikia, as "Cyborg" he would take on the role of Victor Stone.
Ray Fisher in "Cyborg" movie is a half-man, half-machine warrior whose public life as a superhero began after he had been subjected to a breakthrough technology. It did not only keep him alive after having gone through a near-fatal accident, but also equipped him with advanced weapons and gadgets that made him a powerhouse warrior.
