The whole reason Cryborg was getting a push in the first place was ironically because of Johns, given he’s the one who advocated for Vic on the JL (a holdover from the pre-New 52 plans where Vic and Hawkman would be joining the JL as the Titans and JSA reps respectively). With Johns fall from grace there’s no one else at DC who really cares about Vic as a solo character or a Leaguer, so he goes back to the Titans where he “belongs” and does nothing of worth because just like the League, the writers don’t care about him. Also the Titans suck and have for decades.
2. Fisher gave WB an ultimatum: fire Hamada or I’ll never work for you again. WB of course laughed in his face and promptly dropped Cyborg. There are rumors Martian Manhunter will be in the Flash, and given J’onn is also played by black actors and is a classic JL member, I believe he will take his spot back on the League. He did during Scott Snyder’s run for the comics, the new animated movie universe has him in Man of Tomorrow, I believe J’onn will be getting back his old spot across all media while Vic gets kicked back to the Titans in the comics and is used on Doom Patrol for live action. Very curious if he’ll be in Injustice 3 and if he’s used I don’t know if he’ll survive. They clearly despise him given he’s on the Regime side and make fun of his… “condition”.
3. The way Disney treated Scarlett is actually a perfect example of how ruthless these companies are. Scarlett was one of the faces of the MCU, is probably the highest profile actress in Hollywood, and Disney still tried to pull a fast one on her. In contrast Fisher is a nobody who was in a flop (JL) and a movie WB wants to move away from (ZSJL). He went after a suit in Hamada and also went after Hamada’s bosses which meant WB closed ranks. WB isn’t interested in “healing the divide” unless it comes with Fisher publicly apologizing for going after the suits and laying off of Johns, something he can’t do without losing face at this point given how hard he’s doubled down. So he’s never working at WB again both because of his own ultimatum and because WB doesn’t want anything to do with him, with Cyborg being tainted by association at this point (just like Hal)
TL;DR the guy who was pushing for Cyborg got dropped, the new guys don’t care about him, the suits dislike his film actor, and there’s nothing in the pipeline coming that will be using him. As someone who liked Vic on the League and hated the idea of him going back to the Titans, I’ve given up. He’s done, he’ll be back to being Dick’s sidekick at best like the rest of the Titans, or used as Batman’s portable Batcomputer.
