In honor of the 5-year anniversary of the release of Zack Snyder's Justice League, ICYMI, here’s the insider recap we reported on the SnyderVerse possibly coming back:
• Our insiders said the SnyderVerse was in “full play” for a return, not just as an Elseworlds project, but as an actual continuation of Zack Snyder’s DC universe, especially at Paramount.
• The same source previously nailed the Daredevil: Born Again retooling months before The Hollywood Reporter confirmed it.
• We were told if Warner Bros. Discovery gets sold, James Gunn would be out as head of DC Studios.
• Christopher Nolan was said to be part of the plan as an executive producer if Snyder returned.
• The reported goal was not a one-off movie, but restoring Snyder’s DC arc in a real way.
• That would potentially open the door for Henry Cavill returning as Superman, Ben Affleck returning as Batman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, and more.
• Gal Gadot’s SnyderVerse support and Snyder’s social media activity were seen as signs momentum was building, along with Joe Manganiello.
• Our reporting said Saudi Arabia was the frontrunner to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery.
• Zack Snyder already has ties to Saudi Arabia through Brawler, his UFC project backed by the kingdom’s General Entertainment Authority.
• We were told the Saudis want major entertainment assets, franchise power, and theme park IP, which makes DC a huge target.
• A restored SnyderVerse was said to fit directly into that bigger franchise strategy.
• Producer Patrick Caligiuri was also cited as saying the Saudi/WBD deal was close and potentially “one signature away.”
• Our later updates added that the Saudis wanted a Marvel-sized SnyderVerse event and that Cavill was back in the mix, with Affleck possibly involved too.
• We're told Zack is "gung ho" about not only finishing his Justice League sequels but also adapting The Dark Knight Returns.
