Multiple cast and crew have since come forward to confirm or show support for Carpenter's claims, including Sarah Michelle Gellar (lead slayer Buffy), James Marsters ( Spike), and - after deleting his Instagram and making his Twitter private - David Boreanaz, who played Angel in the show and spinoff and who settled in 2011 a sexual harassment lawsuit brought against him by an actress.Ĭarpenter spoke publicly now in large part to support actor Ray Fisher, who accused Whedon of 'abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable' treatment on the set of 'Justice League.'
