Zack Snyder’s Justice League: Part 2

Zack Snyder’s Justice League: Part 2 has been a subject of fan speculation ever since the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021), the director’s long-awaited re-release of his original vision for Justice League (2017). While Snyder has indicated that his work on the DCEU has come to a conclusion, many fans have continued to hope for a continuation of his narrative.

What We Know So Far:

  • Release Status: As of now, there has been no official confirmation that Justice League: Part 2 will be made. Snyder’s involvement with the DCEU has officially ended following the completion of the Snyder Cut, and Warner Bros. has since shifted direction with their plans for the DC Universe under new leadership.
  • Zack Snyder’s Vision: Snyder has often talked about the broader story arc he had planned for the Justice League franchise, which would have spanned multiple films. Justice League: Part 2 was supposed to further explore the dark future teased in the Snyder Cut, including the rise of Darkseid as a major antagonist and the involvement of characters like Superman, Batman, and a reformed Deathstroke.
  • The Snyderverse and Future Projects: Following the release of the Snyder Cut, Snyder has worked on projects like Army of the Dead (2021) and Rebel Moon (2023), which are part of his new creative endeavors outside the DC Universe. Warner Bros. has moved forward with other DC projects like The Flash (2023) and Aquaman 2 (2023), with plans for a revamped DC Universe under James Gunn’s leadership as part of the DC Studios reboot.
  • The Story Arc: Snyder’s original plans for Justice League 2 were heavily centered around the aftermath of the events in the first film, exploring the team’s struggle to defeat Darkseid and dealing with the devastation of a multiversal crisis. Fans of the Snyderverse continue to speculate and hope for a continuation of the storyline, especially with Snyder having teased concepts related to Superman’s darker arc, the fall of Earth, and the resurrection of key characters.

Fan Interest and Speculation:

  • Fans of the Snyderverse remain vocal in their desire for Snyder to complete his vision, with petitions and online campaigns continuing to call for the production of Justice League: Part 2.
  • The “Restore the Snyderverse” movement, although not officially recognized by Warner Bros., has garnered a large and passionate following. Fans are still hoping that future decisions in the DC Universe could see some form of continuation or acknowledgment of Snyder’s story.

While Justice League: Part 2 remains unlikely due to the changes in DC’s leadership and creative direction, it’s clear that Zack Snyder’s take on the Justice League resonates strongly with a large fan base. For now, the closest we can hope for is the completion of Snyder’s original vision through potential graphic novels, fan support, or the continuation of Snyder’s new projects outside the DCEU.
