Zack Snyder’s ‘Justice League 3’ Would’ve Focused On Superman

With the long-awaited release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League on HBO Max, DC fans are finally able to see the original director’s vision for the movie. Neither Snyder nor Warner Bros. seems interested in restoring the SnyderVerse branch of the DCEU since that ship sailed four years ago, so Snyder has been opening up in interviews about what his initial plans for the Justice League sequels were.

After revealing that his second Justice League movie would’ve been a feature-length version of the “Knightmare” sequence from Batman v Superman, Snyder has revealed in a new interview with Esquire that the third one would’ve refocused the story on Henry Cavill’s Superman. Effectively, Snyder’s Justice League 3 would’ve been a true sequel to Man of Steel. Throughout his arc in Snyder’s DCEU, Superman “would have gone from this kind of berserker Superman to a benevolent Superman.”

According to Snyder, by the third Justice League movie, Wonder Woman would’ve been crowned the queen of Themyscira and Batman would’ve made the ultimate sacrifice. Following Batman’s death, Superman would take over the responsibilities of leading the League. Furthermore, Wonder Woman would lead the armies of Themyscira, Aquaman would lead the armies of Atlantis, and Supes would lead humanity in the final stand against Darkseid.

The threequel would’ve focused so heavily on Clark Kent that it would’ve been more of a Superman solo movie than an ensemble Justice League team-up. Snyder explained, “The final movie [Justice League 3] was going to be very much a Superman movie… to just bookend the whole thing.” If Snyder had been able to complete his vision for the larger DCEU, then Superman would’ve ended up with “the hugest arc of everybody, because he goes from, like, the main villain to, like, the main hero.” Traditionally, Superman doesn’t change much over the course of his stories because he’s usually a perfect symbol of good, so he doesn’t need to change. Snyder’s DCEU would’ve subverted this.

While Snyder’s plans for the Justice League trilogy are certainly ambitious, it sadly doesn’t look as though any of it will ever make it to the screen. Snyder himself has said that he’s not interested in making any more DC movies after releasing his director’s cut of Justice League and Warner Bros. is doing its own thing with the DCEU these days. Cavill’s days in the role of Superman are numbered, too, as Warner Bros. recently announced a separate Superman reboot to be written by Ta-Nehisi Coates and produced by J. J. Abrams.

All four glorious hours of Zack Snyder’s Justice League are available to watch on HBO Max now. The new cut has been praised for exemplifying the director’s vision and improving the characterization of the iconic heroes, although the runtime has understandably rubbed some critics the wrong way.
