Part 6/10:
Jeffrey Johns and John Berg, senior Warner Brothers executives involved in Justice League, are also implicated in enabling Whedon’s alleged misconduct. Grace Randolph, a prominent film commentator, pointed out that Johns, despite being disliked by many at Warner Brothers, remained a producer on the film—an odd choice considering the internal dissatisfaction with his management.
Historical narratives about Johns reveal a pattern of controversial decisions, including his role in the tumultuous release of Snyder’s original cut and subsequent behind-the-scenes controversies. Some speculate that Johns’ support for Whedon may have shielded him from accountability—or worse, allowed misconduct to persist.
