A new poster and trailer for Zack Snyder's Justice League are coming soon. The Snyder Cut is the product of a years-long fan campaign that saw the original film's stars join in calls for Snyder to release the original cut of his film. Snyder left Justice League to attend to family matters and Joss Whedon, director of The Avengers, was brought in to finish up the film. The resulting film differed heavily from Snyder's original vision and spurred an ongoing battle between Cyborg actor Ray Fisher and WarnerMedia.
Now, HBO Max is gearing up to release the cut in March. Originally planned as a four part series, Zack Snyder's Justice League will now be released as one long movie. Snyder brought together some of the cast for reshoots and repurposed many of the unused VFX shots for his version. With a reported budget of $70 million, the Snyder Cut will be the last chance for Snyder to show off his plans for the DCEU before the franchise moves in another direction.
Snyder has confirmed on Vero (via ComicBook) that a trailer and poster would soon be released. Along with the trailer and poster will be an official release date for the film. Snyder says he is nearing completion on the cut after months of working on it. Zack Snyder's Justice League will be just one of the many high profile films to hit HBO Max in 2021 amidst a larger push from Warner Bros. to release their theatrical slate day-and-date on the streaming platform.
An early trailer already gave fans a glimpse at what is to come. The black-and-white preview fell in line with the darker tone of Snyder's DCEU, something that the original Justice League did away with about halfway through its runtime. Whedon's version inserted humor and color that felt out of place with Snyder's original vision and the tonal shift in the film was one of the reasons fans felt that Snyder's vision was tossed aside.
While there's no details on what the new trailer could include, it's bound to show off new footage. With multiple trailers for the original film and two for Snyder's version already released, the new trailer will have to give fans a taste of the new footage that has been touted as truly representative of Snyder's original plans for the DCEU. With Snyder having no plans to continue in the DCEU after this, Justice League is the director's last chance to give fans a glimpse into his five movie plan that was pushed to the side after his original exit. Unfortunately, DC Films sees the Snyder Cut as a dead-end and while fans have rallied for Snyder to continue his vision, Zack Snyder's Justice League is the closest they'll come to seeing it.
