Ok, so he was a bad choice from the start. Really. A lot of people did not like what he did to Black Widow in Avengers: Age of Ultron, so it was surprising that he was hired to direct and write such a strong female movie. Then the Wonder Woman script that he once wrote was leaked online, and it was awful. Especially in comparison with the amazing movie that was eventually created. But such things never bothered Hollywood before, a lot of people who's capabilities are questionable at best are still hired regularly in Hollywood.
Joss Whedon's biggest problem is loyalty. During Avengers: Age of Ultron's press tour he basically dissed Marvel, his boss. Not a great move. Then he left/was replace by the Russo Brothers. Then he was asked to finish Justice League as he was already hired to direct and write Batgirl. WB and as result DC love company loyalty. Something that Whedon is incapable of showing. He didn't join the press tour for Justice League and he even liked on Twitter tweets that dissed the film. Despite his official claims for creative problems, I think that his real problem is that of lack of loyalty.
I also think that it's clear that DC should go the Wonder Woman route and hire a female director. I really hope that it will be one of the directors from XX or Jennifer Kent who wrote and directed The Babadook. Unless the movie will be completely canceled.
