Zack Snyder discussedJustice Leagueand DCEU continuity in a new interview. A lot has changed in the world of DC movies since Warner Bros. put outJustice League. Todd Phillips and Joaquin Phoenix madeJoker, which takes place completely outside the interconnected world that Snyder helped to create. Ben Affleck leftThe Batmanand now Matt Reeves is making a new movie with Robert Pattinson as the Caped Crusader. And this is just the beginning, as there is a whole lot more going on with current and future DC movies.
Zack Snyder originally envisionedJustice Leagueas atwo-part story to continue on in the DCEU. However, the studio shut that idea down and the movie became just one part. And after that, the director had to exit the project due to a family tragedy, so he wasn’t able to complete his vision. With that being said, the Snyder Cut ofJustice League, though only a few years old, is already outdated in terms of fitting in with other DC movies. Snyder had this to say.
“Frankly, theDC cinematic universehas branched like a tree and blossomed and grown in amazing and great ways. But for me, where [Justice League] falls, I believe that it really sort of represents its own path. It’s kind of separate now from the DC cinematic universe continuity. And I think that’s a good thing.”
DC fans knew thatZack Snyder’s Justice Leaguewas going to have to sit outside of the current state of the DC universe. For the most part, these fans are just happy that the studio is giving the director the chance to show how he originally wanted the story to unfold. While we haven’t seen very much from Snyder, he did tease that a new clip will be released this week, along with a small and special announcement for fans.
Zack Snyder directedBen Affleck as the Dark Knighton more than one occasion and the two share a bond. Affleck is very happy to see that the Snyder Cut ofJustice Leagueis finally a reality. But, how does the director feel about a new director and actor taking over the franchise? As it turns out, Snyder is pretty excited to see what Matt Reeves and Robert Pattinson can do. He explains.
“You look at what like, Matt’s doing with Batman, by the way I’m super excited about that, I really… I think he’s an amazing filmmaker and I think this is great. And Robert’s cool, I just think it’s great. I’m a fan, so I’m excited.”
The Batmanis one of the most anticipated movies of next year, along with Zack Snyder’sJustice League, which will stream exclusively on HBO Max early next year. A lot has changed in the world of DC movies, but we’re going to get a look at what could have happened had Snyder stuck around to see out his vision. Hopefully it will live up to the hype that has built up over the past two years. You can check out the interview with Zack Snyder below, thanks to theBeyond the Trailer YouTubechannel.
