Not only was DC’s Justice League not the vision director Zack Snyder originally planned, the film wasn’t supposed to be a one-off thing. Snyder recent talked about how he had planned to expand this DC world past his team-up movie:
“In a lot of ways, I view this movie on its own. I love [Wonder Woman director] Patty [Jenkins] and I think she’s done an amazing job, and [Aquaman director] James [Wan] has done a great job – they’ve made their own movies. But I just thought, ‘I’m gonna stay the course that I thought was cool.’ There’s a bunch of stuff I do differently than what they do, but I just think of Justice League as its own thing at this point. It exists kind of on its own.”
Snyder continued, talking about the issue of what’s canon in the DCEU:
“I think fans would say that my movie is canon and the rest are off canon, but that’s just me! For me, there’s a trilogy of films that I sort of lean on. Man Of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Justice League are a continuity, and within that three-movie arc there is a consistent tone. Frankly, it was meant as the primer for another two [Justice League] movies – not that those movies are ever going to get photographed, I don’t see that happening – and it stays true to that concept. It was meant to be like Lord Of The Rings and not a one-off. That’s the way I think about it.”
Zack Snyder’s version of Justice League will hit March 18th on HBO Max.
