Zack Snyder has not yet given up on his Justice League and the “SnyderVerse”

The director doesn’t want to give up: “I would never say that there is no chance.”

The “SnyderVerse” is officially dead. Buried. Replaced.

And yet… Zack Snyder still refuses to completely close the door.

Guest of the Happy Sad Confused podcast, to celebrate 10 years of Batman v Supermanthe director returned to the premature end of his DC saga, stopped before he could shoot the two sequels planned for his Justice League. But in his mind, nothing is completely impossible.

"We absolutely talked about it," he confides about a possible resurrection of the two abandoned films, in another form – comics, animation, or other media. “We live in a world where all this is possible.”

In other words, despite the reboot orchestrated by James Gunn and Peter Safran at Warner Bros., Zack Snyder believes that a continuation is still possible:

“I would never say there’s no chance.”

It also reminds us to what extent the very existence of Zack Snyder’s Justice League is already a miracle:

“I was on the train that created ‘Justice League,’ and if you were in my shoes, there were many times – dark moments – where there was absolutely no chance that my version would ever exist. It would never exist. It was impossible…the cost, the politics, everything was against us. And yet, my version exists.”

And he insists:

“Fans should never forget that it’s because of them.”

Because for him, the #ReleaseTheSnyderCut movement was not just a war of hashtags: “They also raised a ton of money for suicide prevention. They did a lot of good. They’re often criticized for being toxic or whatever, but they literally saved human lives. Fuck you if that’s what you think.”

So will fans have enough power to resurrect the “SnyderVerse”? This seems complicated today because the DC universe was relaunched under the leadership of James Gunn, who signed a new Superman received very positively upon its release last year. Snyder, for his part, seems neither bitter nor in open war:

“James is cool. I wish them the best. That’s what it is.”

But he refuses to see his work diluted or erased:

“This trilogy of three films – Man of Steel, Batman v Superman And Zack Snyder’s Justice League – is a weed that refuses to die. It grows on its own. She has her own life. She doesn’t care about James’ Superman, which is awesome, and I wish them the best. I can’t wait to see the next movie. It’s great. But for me, it’s not the same thing. It’s something else…”
