Justice League production and Snyder Cut Timeline

by RYDEN SCARNATO

Justice League star Joe Manganiello is showing his support for the Zack Snyder cut movement with new behind-the-scenes images of his character Deathstroke.

by Ian Cardona  As the two-year anniversary of Justice League‘s release arrived, plenty of actors lent their support to the #ReleaseTheSnyderCut movement on social media. Stars Ray Fisher, Gal Gadot, Ben Affleck and Joe Manganiello offered support for the release of Zack Snyder’s original version of the film. Even Warner Bros.’ former president recently backed the movement. And now, the Justice League stunt team has also offered their support of the Zack Snyder cut by releasing an epic fight choreography video from the DC movie. The video, which was originally…

Arguably Justice League’s biggest not-so-secret secret was that Henry Cavill’s Superman would be resurrected, as the Man of Steel sacrificed his life to stop Doomsday at the end of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. But, just like so many Justice League plot elements, it seems as though Superman being brought back to life might have unfolded differently in Zack Snyder’s original version, i.e. the Snyder Cut, compared to the theatrical version.

by Matt McGloin “Release The Snyder Cut” is currently trending on Twitter with over 30K Tweets in the United States alone. Earlier saw director Zack Snyder take to the Vero social app to post a new image from his Justice League cut featuring Ezra Miller as Barry Allen (The Flash) along with Kiersey Clemons as Iris West. “Cute couple,” Snyder commented.   Zack Snyder, Justice League, Release The Snyder Cut trending on Twitter Regarding “Release The Snyder Cut” trending on Twitter, a…

Clay Staub, a regular Zack Snyder collaborator who served as the aerial second assistant director on the Justice League shoot, shared a new image of Batman (Ben Affleck) sitting on horseback. It seems to be from his journey to find Aquaman (Jason Momoa) in the film, and as fans have noted, looks and feels more like the Seven Samurai-inspired journey into the wilderness that Snyder had teased for Batman, rather than the fairly perfunctory “getting the gang together” sequence that ended up in the theatrical cut of Justice League when it was released just over two years ago with major changes made to the original film by Joss Whedon.

Staub is the latest in an ongoing parade of actors, crew members, and even studio executives to throw their social media voice behind releasing Snyder’s vision of the Justice League film. On the two-year anniversary of the film’s release, almost every key player in the cast tweeted about it, and really so far it only appears to be Superman actor Henry Cavill who is reluctant to publicly call for the film’s release.

  By Bradley Russell    Mentioning the c-word around any Justice League fan might just get you into a spot of bother. The supposedly alternate cut (what were you thinking?) of the movie by its original director, Zack Snyder, has now reached near-mythical status. But where is the so-called Snyder Cut? Well, if you have the Justice League Blu-ray, you might have already seen a glimpse of a teeny-tiny portion of it, especially when it comes to the Justice League ending. The shot, from Steppenwolf’s defeat…

  by MIKE ANNERINO      Zack Snyder took to Vero to respond to fans still supporting the release of the Justice League Sndyer Cut. The Justice League Snyder Cut is this generation’s Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut. The infamously edited DC team-up wasn’t exactly maligned by DC fans when it was released in 2017, but the removal of director Zack Snyder’s vision was something that fans of the DC Extended Universe seemed disappointed in. One year later, the demand for the Snyder Cut…

  by  SEAN O’CONNELL       When it comes to his take on Justice League, Zack Snyder remains a leaky faucet whose consistent “drip, drip, drip” keeps pleasing DC fans while simultaneously driving them nuts about what could have been. Snyder routinely uses his Vero social media account to share details about his famed #SnyderCut of the superhero team up. This, however, is his biggest reveal yet. Behold: Darkseid!   Zack Snyder reveals yet another photo from his version of #JusticeLeague. A bell can’t…

BY STEPHEN M. COLBERT Even though it’s been nearly a year since Justice League’s theatrical release, we’re still regularly learning new things about Zack Snyder’s original intent for the movie. Thanks to Joss Whedon’s reshoots and a 2-hour runtime mandate, the movie we got in theaters was significantly different than the “Snyder Cut,” but fragments of the director’s vision are still regularly dug up, giving fans a taste of what could have been. This newest reveal comes from a moment that was removed from the movie entirely but…

by Umberto Gonzalez and Tim Molloy “Justice League” had a lot of enemies: a looming corporate merger, a family tragedy, an internal clash between light and dark themes. But its greatest enemy was time. Few people are happy with the finished project, which one insider called “a Frankenstein” made of the assembled parts favored by rotating executives and directors and which had the worst opening for a DC Comics-based movie in years. But several people who spoke to TheWrap said the decision to keep…

By Stephen M. Colbert In the newest, and most bizarre, turn of events related to the fabled original “Snyder Cut” of Justice League, a new source is claiming that the cut doesn’t only exist, but it has “a lot of finished FX and music.” The rumors of an eventual Snyder cut of Justice League first arose shortly after the announcement that Warner Bros. CEO Kevin Tsujihara had mandated a 2 hour run time. At that time, those involved were still insisting that Joss Whedon was merely completing Snyder’s…

 By Andrew Dyce The Justice League movie seems like Zack Snyder’s last in the series – and believe us, the DC Movie Universe is worse off because of it. The studio has said little about their plans post-Justice League, clearly not the financial or critical course-correction it was hoped to be on the heels of Wonder Woman. And with Zack Snyder not seeing the movie since stepping away, and given how much Joss Whedon and WB changed of his cut, the man who started the DC Movie Universe…

By Ana Dumaraog Another voice has added their support to the fan desire to see Zack Snyder’s original cut of Justice League released and this time it’s someone who was involved with the movie. Richard Cetrone, who has been Ben Affleck’s stunt double for every DCEU film from Suicide Squad to Justice League, thinks that Snyder’s cut of the film — without Joss Whedon’s reshoots — should be made available. This is the latest movie in DC’s line-up to receive this kind of public outcry as there were…

By Timothy Lammers Justice League cinematographer Fabian Wagner has joined a growing list of people who want director Zack Snyder’s original cut of the film to be released.  The long-awaited gathering of some of DC’s biggest superheroes finally happened last week, but much to the chagrin of Warner Bros., Justice League didn’t perform nearly as well as anticipated. The film at one point was projected to make somewhere in the neighborhood of $110 million to $120 million domestically in its opening frame, but instead made $94…

Justice League Reshoots Erased Aquaman’s Mythology By Andrew Dyce Fans had high hopes for Aquaman’s story in Justice League, but most of it wound up on the cutting room floor. At least, that’s the impression given by the veritable wealth of underwater shots, Momoa-centric scenes, and hints at the larger DC mythology of Atlantis in the movie’s marketing. Almost all of which, sadly, ended up being tossed aside – including entire performances from acclaimed actors now appearing only in the solo Aquaman movie. But it’s the rich mythology…

By Ana Dumaraog DC fans launch a petition for Warner Bros. to release Zack Snyder’s original cut of Justice League. Now that the last superhero film of the year – and arguably the most anticipated of them all – has finally arrived, critics, fans and even casual moviegoers all have their chance to weigh in on Justice League, which may be the most divisive outing from the genre this year. After the astounding success of Wonder Woman, DC Films once again finds themselves in a precarious situation…

Warner Bros. just launched Justice League into theaters, but deleted scenes have already leaked online. Arguably the most important movie in WB’s still young DC movie universe is here and is adding to the controversial nature of the franchise. Justice League sports the biggest and most powerful DC heroes all on the screen for the first time, but much has been made of the behind-the-scenes turmoil the project has had. From last second rewrites, to major reshoots, and losing Zack Snyder as the director, it is…

By Alex Leadbeater Justice League removed Henry Cavill’s mustache with CGI for his return as Superman – and boy is it bad. So, yes, as expected, Superman is resurrected in Justice League, although he’s a little different. No, we’re not talking about how this time he actually is a beacon of hope rather than the more brooding take of previous films, but his brand new – and decidedly fake – upper lip. This bizarre story has already been well reported. By the time Justice League‘s extensive…

By Alex Leadbeater There’s a big villain in Justice League and it isn’t Steppenwolf: it’s reshoots. The exact nature of the DCEU’s infamous reshoots has been debated endlessly over the past year – was Joss Whedon executing a massive course correct or simply helping out Zack Snyder? Whatever was true, most had assumed we’d never truly know. However, nobody quite expected the reshoots to be quite so rampant or obvious in the movie itself; Justice League is a mishmash of tone, narrative and character, with glaring leaps in feel…

By Cooper Hood Zack Snyder has yet to see Justice League despite his sole director’s credit on the movie. Warner Bros. is in the earliest of stages of their worldwide launch of Justice League, the fifth film in their new DC universe. Following the backlash from Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice (and less so with Man of Steel before), Snyder and his crew revamped Justice League to make it lighter and more fun as a response. These changes have helped a bit, but even still, the early reception to Justice League has…
