Before exiting the picture – and subsequently, it seems, the DECU indefinitely- “Batman vs. Superman” and “Matt of Steel” helmer Zack Snyder had grand plans for his “Justice League” – one that would’ve encompassed a story line that would‘ve played out over five films.
After he suffered a family tragedy, Snyder was forced to hand the reigns on 2017’s “Justice League” to Joss Whedon- with fans left wondering just how different Snyder’s version of the superhero team-up movie would’ve been.
Ever since, fans have petitioned in great masses to get the original director’s cut released. And fair enough too, seems Snyder’s film would’ve been quite different to the one released- and widely panned – in theaters; in particular, its ending would have been very different to the current culmination.
Yesterday, the former godfather of the DECU film universe showed off a “Justice League” t-shirt design he contributed to a fundraising t-shirt campaign for Suicide Prevention charity. The design prompted a fan to potentially reveal the original plan for Snyder’s “Justice League”.

The fan took to Vero to explain that Snyder’s “Justice League” would’ve seen Ben Affleck’s Batman “sacrificing himself” to save buddy Superman’s girlfriend, Lois Lane.
Snyder himself responded to the post with a clapping hands emoji, potentially suggesting the reader is right on the money.

Anyone with that original script care to comment?
