Since the release of Man of Steel , Zack Snyder has established himself as the most controversial director working in the superhero film genre . With the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League , fans of the filmmaker are now campaigning for Warner Bros. to allow Snyder to complete his Justice League trilogy with two more films, as had been the original plan. In a recent interview, Snyder hinted that there are still plenty of stories to explore. Justice League sequels.
“There are a few clues [about Justice League 2 and 3], but I would say more on a sort of teaser of what was to come. But it was really a big bite anyway, which is what we wanted to do for this first Justice League movie. So there was a lot to do in the first four hours, I felt like it, and that’s really all we shot. Although yes, there was a plan for more. ”
Despite being four hours long, Zack Snyder’s Justice League is in many ways just an introduction to the true story of Snyder’s planned trilogy, which didn’t start properly until the end of the film, the main villain Darkseid. bringing his forces to Earth to personally enslave the planet . The next two films in the trilogy would have seen the heroes of Earth come together to take on Darkseid, Superman become a brainwashed dictator, Batman dying, and humanity unite to overthrow the alien intruders. Sadly, Snyder admits that there is very little chance he will return to complete his DCEU trilogy.
“You can go take a look and see the other two-movie arc that we had planned. I will say, however, that they don’t really apply to where we ended up. [and] written before Justice League, so that would be where we’d go from here if I was [doing another movie] – which, you know, there’s clearly very little chance of me making another movie. with the DCU – but if for some reason that happened, it would be a lot of the same stuff, but probably a different scenario. ”
While the odds are low, Snyder appears poised to return to the DCEU if given the chance to complete his Justice League trilogy, something “Snyder Cut” fans have already started to campaign fervently for online. Whether their efforts pay off somewhere with the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League Parts 2 and 3 remain to be seen.
