'Justice League' Snyder Cut to be FINALLY released in 2021, waiting fans let out a collective cheer on Twitter
There is a Snyder Cut, after all. DC fans have waited patiently since the release of 'Justice League', and it took Zack Snyder years to finally make the reveal official. The much-anticipated Snyder Cut will officially release in 2021. The announcement was made during the 'Man of Steel' Watch Party on the Vero app, which saw Henry Cavill joining the Q and A session with Zack and Deb Snyder.
".@hbomaxwill #ReleaseTheSnyderCut, @zacksnyder's director's cut of the @wbpicturesfilm #JusticeLeague, exclusively in 2021: http://hbom.ax/releasethesnydercut," per the official caption of HBOMaxPR on Twitter.
“I want to thank HBO Max and Warner Brothers for this brave gesture of supporting artists and allowing their true visions to be realized. Also a special thank you to all of those involved in the SnyderCut movement for making this a reality,” said Snyder in a press release.
According to reports, it is currently unclear what form Snyder’s ‘Justice League’ will take. There’s debate on whether it will be released as an almost four-hour-long director’s cut or split into six chapters.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter, Snyder said, “It will be an entirely new thing, and, especially talking to those who have seen the released movie, a new experience apart from that movie,” adding, “You probably saw one-fourth of what I did.”
“At the end of the day, it really is all about them and we are beyond excited to be able to release Zack’s ultimate vision for this film in 2021. This could never have happened if it weren’t for the hard work and combined efforts of the teams at HBO Max and Warner Bros. Pictures,” said Robert Greenblatt, Chairman, Warner Media Entertainment and Direct-To-Consumer in a press statement.
Twitterati has gone berserk after the reveal. At the time of the announcement, there were 7000+ tweets that had people talking about The Snyder Cut. "Finally 2021 Here it comes #SnyderCut@ZackSnyder just showed this in his #ManOfSteel #watchparty I am crying with joy, our dreams are becoming a reality #ReleaseTheSnyderCut," a fan tweeted. "THANK YOU FOR THIS BLESSING," wrote a fan. 'Subscribing immediately. Thank you," another fan exclaimed.
"Yeaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!Finally:") It's Coming," a fan whooped. "WE WON! I'm CRYING RN!!!!" another fan wrote. "Thank you. From the bottom of my heart," said another fan. "It was a matter of time. Thank you HBOMax!" a tweet read. "OH MY GOODNESS!!!! #ReleaseTheSnyderCuT THANK YOU HBO WARNER BROS," another fan tweeted. Earlier, Jason Momoa, who played Aquaman in the film was seen in a video where he said, "Just release the f***ing Snyder Cut. Just do it already, please!"
Last year, Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot jumped on the bandwagon of stars and fans calling for the release of director Zack Snyder's cut of 'Justice League'. The actors who played Batman and Wonder Woman in the ensemble DC Superhero film joined the movement on Twitter using the hashtag #ReleaseTheSnyderCut.
For those who're still don't know what this is all about, the cut refers to Snyder's original edit of the film which was shelved when he and his wife Deborah Snyder stepped away from the project following a family tragedy. Joss Whedon, the 'Avengers' writer-director was roped in to wrap up reshoots and production. The film though was a damp squib and left fans unhappy with the final version of the film.
Coming back to the reactions, "GOD EXISTS!!!!!!!!! HIS NAME IS ZACK SNYDER," a fan exclaimed. "A big episode of my life has been chasing this film. And now I can finally chill (a little bit!) Of course I wish it was coming next week but I guess I get to be a kid waiting for Christmas once again Great creative choice @hbomax, Can't wait," a fan opined.
To end with, here's a classic: "Good things come to those who wait."
