Justice League Snyder Cut: 10 Major New Details You Need To Know
3. Warner Bros. Execs Weigh In On The Film's Release
Warner Bros. spent a lot of money on Joss Whedon's Justice League movie, and then rushed it into cinemas with poor visual effects (covering up Henry Cavill's Mission: Impossible moustache, for example) so studio execs would receive their bonuses. With that in mind, having to admit they were wrong by releasing the "Snyder Cut" is definitely an embarrassment.
You wouldn't guess it from some of the comments from them, though; in fact, you'd be forgiven for thinking that the whole thing was their idea!
"Since I got here 14 months ago, the chant to #ReleaseTheSnyderCut has been a daily drumbeat in our offices and inboxes," Warner Media Entertainment Chairman Robert Greenblatt admits. "Well, the fans have asked, and we are thrilled to finally deliver. At the end of the day, it really is all about them and we are beyond excited to be able to release Zack’s ultimate vision for this film in 2021."
Kevin Reilly, Chief Content Officer at HBO Max, President, TNT, TBS and truTV, has also commented. "When Zack and Debbie shared the extraordinary vision of where Zack wanted to take Justice League, my team and our counterparts at Warner Bros. took it as a mission to solve the many issues that stood in the way," he says, likely referring to the unfinished state of the movie.
