Ray Fisher Reveals Cyborg’s Powers In ‘Justice League’

Cyborg made his live-action debut in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice as portrayed by thespian Ray Fisher, but audiences won’t get to see what the tech-based superhero can do until next month’s Justice League, which features Cyborg as a founding member of the league. In a new interview with Fortress of Solitude, Fisher reveals what audiences can expect from his character:

“Due to the technology used to create Cyborg, his powers are ever-evolving,” Fisher said. “They include: the ability to interface with anything technological, flight, super-strength, hologram projection and a sophisticated weapon’s system … the list goes on! He has powers within him that even he isn’t yet aware of. Cyborg doesn’t need to eat or sleep, and whenever he encounters an issue that he’s not initially equipped to handle, his technology can transmogrify and immediately adapt to that situation.”

So Cyborg is like a high-tech Swiss Army knife. Nice.

Most fans might best know Cyborg as one of the leads in the 2003 animated series Teen Titans (booyah!), but Fisher’s iteration of the character is more akin to Frankenstein’s monster.

When we meet Victor Stone in this film, he’s been transformed into Cyborg for almost a year,” Fisher shared. “He has been keeping himself in complete isolation as he attempts to deal with everything he’s lost: his body, his mother, and the life he once knew. On top of that, he must figure out who and what he is, now that he’s been transformed into a ‘monster’ by his all-too-absent father.”

Fisher previously described the DC Cinematic Universe’s Cyborg as a “very real and grounded character,” and one who is “a different Cyborg for a new era.”

Justice League, starring Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller and Ray Fisher, opens November 17.

Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s (Henry Cavill) selfless act, Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) enlists newfound ally Diana Prince to face an even greater threat. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to recruit a team to stand against this newly awakened enemy. Despite the formation of an unprecedented league of heroes — Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and the Flash — it may be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
