Warner Media confirms there will be no further Zack Snyder DC projects, following the release of his cut of Justice League.
Zack Snyder’s Justice League is finally in the world, a remarkable confection of fan support and corporate strategy. Naturally, in the wake of the film’s release, many of the sub-plots that have threaded this unlikely tale together are also reaching resolutions of their own.
WarnerMedia CEO Ann Sarnoff has announced in an interview with Variety that Zack Snyder’s ‘Snyder-verse’ series of DC films is dead, following the release of his cut of Justice League.
Following the film’s extended epilogue sequence which sets up a subsequent two movie arc, the same fans who successfully campaigned for the Snyder cut to be restored have begun to campaign for the final two films of the Snyder-verse to be similarly resurrected.
Sarnoff however, has immediately shot down that notion, saying “I appreciate that they love Zack’s work and we are very thankful for his many contributions to DC. We’re just so happy that he could bring his cut of the “Justice League” to life because that wasn’t in the plan until about a year ago. With that comes the completion of his trilogy. We’re very happy we’ve done this, but we’re very excited about the plans we have for all the multi-dimensional DC characters that are being developed right now.”
Although we’ve seen WarnerMedia do about turns before regarding Snyder’s work, they seem to have come out early in this case, looking to shut down the groundswell before it can gather momentum.
Still, at this point, given the unlikely nature of what’s happened so far, this is a story that could continue to run and may just have a few more surprises in store for us yet…
