The next shot is the “Justice League” team, including Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman, Henry Cavill’s Superman and Jason Mamoa’s Aquaman, standing together.

In 2017, the Hollywood director announced he was stepping away from the original DC film after his daughter, Autumn, committed suicide, People magazine reported. Director Joss Whedon stepped into the project, but the movie was released to mixed reviews. Fans began a social media campaign calling for a “Snyder cut” of the film. In the summer of 2020, Snyder revealed he was indeed working on a cut of the film for a streaming debut in 2021.
The highly-anticipated DC film hits HBO Max on March 18.
