‘Justice League’ Stars Demand Snyder Cut Release: Gal Gadot, Ray Fisher, Jason Momoa Support It
UPDATE: 6:30 p.m. EDT -- Ben Affleck joined in, tweeting the hashtag #ReleaseTheSnyderCut. Zack Snyder responded to both Gadot and Affleck's posts, making it clear that he wants his version released.
Original story: Wonder Woman actress Gal Gadot and Cyborg actor Ray Fisher are the latest “Justice League” cast members to reveal that they want to see original director Zack Snyder’s version of the 2017 movie.
Gadot posted a black and white photo of herself on Sunday afternoon. The caption is a simple hashtag: #ReleaseTheSnyderCut.
Fisher followed suit.
Aquaman actor Jason Momoa recently confirmed that he has seen the Snyder cut. “I have seen it. I’ve seen the Snyder Cut, so… I think the public needs to see it,” Momoa told MTV News. “I’m obviously indebted to Warners and DC, and I don’t know how they feel about it. As a fan, I’m very, very happy that I got to see it.”
There has been a spike in social media activity on the #ReleaseTheSnyderCut hashtag, and it was even trending on Sunday. Nov. 17 marked the two-year anniversary of “Justice League” hitting theaters. After his daughter’s death, Snyder stepped down from directing the project, which was well underway.
“Avengers” director Joss Whedon was brought in to wrap it up, and it is widely believed that he changed much of the movie. He held extensive reshoots for the Warner Bros. film. The support of Momoa and Gadot seems to confirm that Whedon and Snyder had very different visions.
Fans have recently suggested that HBO Max could be the right home for the Snyder Cut. After all, Warner Media is surely looking to boost subscriptions to the service when it launches next year. The much-asked-for Snyder Cut would certainly get many diehard DC Comics fans to sign up.
Warner Bros. has made no announcements about the Snyder Cut yet.
