Justice League: 10 Biggest Questions It Leaves Unanswered

7. Will The Old Gods Return?

One of the coolest set-pieces in Justice League comes from a scene explaining how the Old Gods - made up of the likes of the Amazons, the Atlantians and Green Lantern Corps - banded together to taken down Steppenwolf thousands of years ago.

More like an extended cameo appearance than a true introduction though, the importance of the Old Gods isn't really brought up again for the rest of the movie. It's explained that they used to rule and protect the Earth, but now most of them are either dead or in hiding. With them being shown in such an extended sequence though, it begs the question: are they really gone for good?

If Warner Bros. are planning on moving full steam ahead with more movies in this universe, then you can probably bet that you'll be seeing more of the Old Gods in future films.

After being mentioned in Wonder Woman and shown in the flesh in Justice League, fans are wondering how these mythical characters are going to impact future movies, and whether they're going to become a more active part of the world.
