Although I am not a big Zack Snyder fan, I do believe a director should have the opportunity to have their intended vision out there to the audience as intended (and not a Director’s Cut years later). So I was curious to see the teaser trailer for 2021’s extended Justice League.
For me, it answers some questions and raises others. It is clear there is going to be more Flash and Cyborg content. Darkseid is reportedly in an opening battle sequence with the Amazonians, et al. What I can’t tell is if we’re going to just get a better final battle of Steppenwolf versus the Justice League, and then a teaser for a future film with Darkseid and the Justice League, New Genesis, Apokolips, etc.
Snyder may be angling to have this big second movie, banking on big positive response for the 2021 release on HBO Max. The alternative would be squishing a lot into four hours (I know, four hours is a long sit) with a possible time travel element. As a Jack Kirby fan, I would like to see that New Gods content really fleshed out, even if it is in the hands of Zack Snyder.
