Henry Cavill may not be reprising his role as the Man of Steel anytime soon, but fans don’t need to burst into tears for him. The Hollywood Reporter discovered that the actor was paid a whopping $250,000 ‘each’ for his brief appearances in Black Adam and The Flash.
Yes, that’s what it is—a quarter of a million dollars for just a few minutes of screen time. Not bad for a day’s work, right? While some may feel sorry for Cavill for not getting the chance to star in James Gunn’s 2025 Superman release, it’s abundantly clear that the actor isn’t hurting for cash. Also, compared to Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot, the Immortals actor received a higher salary for his brief cameos in other DC flicks.

Cavill was a hot commodity at Warner Bros. Pictures before Gunn and Safran were named co-CEOs of DC Studios.

In the early days of home video, people hardly ever asked questions like, “Which version should I watch?” These days, skilled editors can make post-production edit changes to their films, sometimes producing multiple ‘directors’ versions of the same motion picture. Examples of such editors include Michael Mann, Oliver Stone, and Ridley Scott, (who has director’s cuts of Kingdom of Heaven and Blade Runner).
However, the conventional group of director’s cut enthusiasts appear to be amateurs, in contrast to Zack Snyder. His numerous extended cuts offer a more intimate glimpse into his techniques and obsessions than those of any other director.
Needless to say, most casual moviegoers these days most likely associate Zack Snyder’s Justice League with the term ‘director’s cut’. Well, we can’t deny that in recent years, Snyder, 58, has gained a reputation for releasing extended cuts of his films, prompting many to question how far artistic freedom goes.

‘Captain America: Civil War’ was an extremely important movie in the MCU, primarily due to its introduction of the Sokovia Accords, which divided the Avengers and led to a conflict between Captain America and Iron Man, for the first time in the MCU pitting superheroes against each other, with no real winner in the conflict.
It also introduced new characters like Black Panther and Spider-Man, impacting the future of the MCU. The film’s character conflict and action-packed storyline had lasting effects on team dynamics and relationships within the Avengers, making it one of the most memorable entries in the franchise.
But did you know that MCU masterpiece was actually inspired by a Dceu flop? Joe and Anthony Russo explained how one of Snyder’s badly received movies – ‘Batman Vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice’ inspired them to switch lanes and gave them the idea to pit the superheroes in an epic ideological fight.

Take any random film directed by Zack Snyder, and hordes of his fans will probably argue that the theatrical ‘cut’ falls short of capturing the true brilliance of the director. From the much-discussed Zack Snyder’s Justice League (2021) to the director’s extended take on Watchmen (2009), the director’s cuts are arguably even more beloved than the theatrical versions.
Although he is now able to release his favorite versions of most of his films thanks to his devoted fan base, Snyder still has one more film he’d like to try. According to Snyder, who recently spoke with Empire, he is still not satisfied with the way his 2011 flick Sucker Punch turned out, and thus, he still wants to “fix” it. Well, it seems fans might need to exercise some patience.

Ben Affleck was ready with his Batman script and it was only a matter of time before he’d get to star in his solo film. Unfortunately, fate had some other plans. Since the actor had reservations about the film and some other personal complications, he decided to step away, and in came Matt Reeves. What he produced forth was a film that would go on to receive three nominations at the Academy Awards.

Zack Snyder served as the architect of the Dceu, starting his grand tale almost a decade before James Gunn and Peter Safran were eventually brought in to helm a reboot of the franchise. While Snyder never got to realize his full vision for the shared universe, he has shared several interesting tidbids and plot points from planned installments over the years.

While Snyder’s take on Batman was already controversial, the director had plans for an even more controversial and borderline creepy plot point for the character. In his vision for the Dceu, Snyder wanted to give Batman an uncanny romance with the significant other of one of his closest allies. Here is what Snyder had planned for Ben Affleck’s Batman and why the idea was too crazy.

Batman has many iconic lines. From his talk about being the personification of vengeance, or the metaphors about darkness and the night, his dialogues follow a similar tone. On top of the lines that have become popular in the comics, it would seem that every person who played the character added something of their own to his Hall of Fame.
Oftentimes, these additions end up being iconic lines that stick around long after they hang the cape.

The perfect example of this would be Ben Affleck’s portrayal in the SnyderVerse. During his time in the franchise, he created a line that has been deemed one of the greatest in the history of the character.

Henry Cavill is unarguably one of the hottest, most jaw-dropping physique-possessing celebrities in the entirety of Hollywood’s entertainment industry. Yet, as much of a quarterback-like personality as he looks on the outside, his true choice of interest lies in something completely different; one that even has many labeling him as a “nerd”: His passionate love for gaming.

While he is majorly a gaming freak, one specific gaming universe that enchants him to unparalleled levels of excitement, thrill, and exhilaration is none other than the Warhammer one. And although he doesn’t mind being called a nerd, this very passion of his has even led to Cavill getting trolled by other people, like Jimmy Kimmel, for instance!

Zack Snyder’s Justice League was released in 2021, giving fans another look into the director’s unique vision for the Dceu. While fans thought there was a solid chance for an entire Justice League saga directed by Zack Snyder, nothing of the sort happened. Zack Snyder left, James Gunn and Peter Safran became in-charge, and the superhero universe was rebooted.

Despite all the facts, fans are still holding onto a thin thread of hope that Zack Snyder will return and finish what he started. However, as things stand right now, coming to the Dcu is not the filmmaker’s priority. Although, there is one way he might reconsider his decision and this might even allow Ben Affleck and others to return to their respective superhero roles.

Director Zack Snyder has made some of the most polarizing films recently and his work in the Dceu has been extremely tumultuous. Snyder’s take on iconic comic book characters such as Batman and Superman was largely divisive and controversial, especially due to their deviation from their comic book counterparts’ value system.

Ben Affleck wouldn’t be anyone’s top pick for the best Batman actor, but he is not entirely at fault for how his portrayal turned out. Affleck’s character appeared in some of the troublesome productions within the Dceu and he revealed that he hated every minute of being on set for these films. While he blames no one at DC or WB for his experience, he revealed that it was Matt Damon who came along and helped to seal the fate of his unsatisfying Batman role.
Ben Affleck was not happy in his Batman role in the Dceu
Ben Affleck debuted as Batman in Zack Snyder’s review-bombed film Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice. He later appeared in a cameo role in Suicide Squad before leading the problematic theatrical version of Justice League. Interestingly, a solo film for the character never happened in the Dceu.

Since their debut in the 1980s, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have grown into a permanent fixture in popular culture. From their catchy theme song to the four anthropomorphic turtle brothers, Leonardo, Michelangelo, Donatello, and Raphael, the franchise has touched the hearts of fans of all ages.
And now, with the news of a reboot on the horizon, Paramount has confirmed to be developing a live-action, R-rated film based on the gripping comic book miniseries Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin. So, who is in charge of guiding this vision?
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin
To put it mildly, Zack Snyder seems like the perfect person to bring these Ninja heroes back to the big screen. His work on movies like 300 and Man of Steel mirrors his ability to create epic and thrilling battles, which would make him a great match for the turtles’ ninja skills and unique fighting styles.

Do Sasquatches really exist? The answer is almost certainly “no,” but if they did, what would their day-to-day life look like? That’s the question that the Zellner Bros. set out to answer with their offbeat feature-film following an unconventional family of bigfoots (or is it bigfeet?). If you’re not quite sure what to make of that premise, don’t worry. Neither was I. I would implore anybody curious about this film to enter it with an open mind and a willingness to experience it for what it is: a one-of-a-kind blend of potty humor and poignant reflection, delivered in a way you’ve never seen before.

In Ben Affleck’s Batman, there were some things that the age-old voice of Batman, Kevin Conroy, found very disturbing. No doubt the real fans of Batman’s idealism were seriously disappointed with the Dark Knight crossing his boundaries just because of the script. More than being a superhero, Batman is a name that’s almost a synonym for justice.

You know that famous quote commonly attributed to Alexander the Great about how he wept when there were no more worlds to conquer? We're starting to think that Zack Snyder feels much the same way, except that his version of conquering the world is more about finding ways to re-release his movies with extra footage attached at all costs.
To be fair, this isn't exactly a new phenomenon for Snyder. His 2004 "Dawn of the Dead" reboot eventually led to an unrated cut down the line and his comic book movie "Watchmen" ended up with several different versions post-release. He pulled the same trick once again with both "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" and, most infamously, his "Zack Snyder's Justice League" experiment that resulted in a completely different movie altogether compared to the theatrical cut. He's planning on returning to the exact same well with his two-part "Rebel Moon" epic...

Zack Snyder’s time over at the DC Studios will never be forgotten by his fans and neither will his Dceu trilogy which includes, Man of Steel, Dawn of Justice, and Justice League. Ever since the filmmaker left the superhero universe to move onto bigger and better things, fans have been hoping that he’d one day return to direct some of their favorite superheroes at least one more time. As of now though, this seems like a far-fetched dream.
Batman Vs Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)
Out of the entire trilogy, the Knightmare sequences seem to be some of the most beloved and iconic to the fans, and rightly so. However, the scenes almost never made it to the screens as Warner Bros. executives were not very keen on keeping them in the film. Luckily, Zack Snyder had the perfect response for them which led to the scenes not getting cut.

Movie lovers will know that Zack Snyder is a very specific director. In most cases, you either love his vision of a movie or you hate it completely. There is rarely something in between. But he is also a very specific director because, at times, you can hate one version of his movie and love the other. This is because he rarely has just one version of a movie. Remember how Watchmen ultimately had three cuts? The controversial Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice had two, while Zack Snyder’s Justice League is a phenomenon in itself. Rebel Moon is also set to have a Director’s Cut (both parts), so Snyder really is a phenomenon in that aspect.
Recently, while talking to Empire, Snyder discussed one of his early flops and revealed that he would like to have another go at it, i.e., that he would like to...

There’s rarely just one version of a Zack Snyder film. His Watchmen adaptation arrived in various cuts – theatrical, director’s, ultimate. Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice has its Ultimate Edition. The Snyder Cut campaign brought the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League, while his Rebel Moon films at Netflix will later receive extended, all-out, R-rated versions too. And while his 2011 original fantasy-actioner Sucker Punch technically has an extended edition already, the filmmaker has unfinished business with that film – with something much closer to a full-on director’s cut in mind.
In a major new Empire interview, Zack Snyder answered your reader questions, on movies from across his career (and plenty of other topics aside). And when asked what, if anything, he’d want to change about one of his movies, he gave a broader answer: there’s one movie he actively wants to change in a bigger way.

When it came to the Dceu, Zack Snyder had quite the idea for his characters. They weren’t going to be just some usual run of the mill superheroes who had a conviction for doing good. For Snyder, it was so much more. He understood very well that life is never fair. The conundrums that categorise the postmodern era can’t be reflected in a hunky-dory world.
Hence the epiphany to explore with characters who would dare to start on the dark side of the spectrum, showing everyone’s favorite superheroes in a light no one could have imagined. And he was made to answer for that, with a section of fans questioning his choices. But he wasn’t the first to do so.

It’s that time of the month again when the world is introduced to theories regarding their favorite characters. Today’s topic is the iconic character of Wonder Woman and more specifically, Wonder Woman in the Dcau or the DC Animated Universe.
Being an integral part of the Justice League both in live-action as well as animated projects, the character of Wonder Woman is truly iconic and unique. However, a fan theory says that Diana Prince is not the first Wonder Woman of the Dcau!

Well, people may remember how there were multiple carriers of Ghost Rider, and the spirit passed on down to the next. It seems that Diana Prince aka Wonder Woman in the Dcau and the comics might have undergone something like that.

The world is heating up out there, but the gusts and erratic temperature swings of early Spring can often be deceiving. One minute it looks sunny and warm, the next you’re stranded on a long walk in just basketball shorts when a sudden chill descends. Or it looks nasty, and all of a sudden you’re overdressed in 80-degree heat. It might be best to stay safely within the confines of your local art house or home theater with some Don’t-Miss Indies instead.

"Suicide Squad Isekai," premiering this July, bridges the worlds of DC Comics and anime. "Isekai" is a popular anime genre; meaning "another world" in Japanese, Isekai anime follows an everyman lead being transported to a magical realm, "Alice in Wonderland" style. This time, the "everyman" leads are Harley Quinn (played by Anna Nagase instead of Margot Robbie), Deadshot, Peacemaker, King Shark, and Clayface.
Wit Studio ("Attack on Titan") is producing "Suicide Squad Isekai," but the series is only happening thanks to Warner Bros. Japan. Variety recently reported that Warner Bros. plans for DC Comics-inspired anime are only beginning. Like Disney, Warner Bros. has noticed an audience appetite for anime and is responding to it.
James Gibbons, Warner Bros. Discovery president of Asia-Pacific, told Variety:

Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman made her debut in the Dcu in 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and made a great impression on audiences. They loved Gadot’s charm and ease with which she portrayed the character. Her solo film in 2017 further proved that she was not a fluke and was born to play the character.

After Henry Cavill’s abrupt and unfortunate exit as Superman from the Dceu, David Corenswet is set to play the character in James Gunn’s new Dcu. Gunn has deliberately chosen a younger Superman to explore more of the character becoming this eponymous hero and balancing this with being Clark Kent on Earth.

Gunn’s Superman promises to be unique and a complete departure from the tone of Cavill’s dark portrayal of the character. While Cavill’s Superman used his powers more than showing his actual fighting skills, it looks like Corenswet’s Superman is going to maintain a balance between the two as the makers hired a top stunt double for Corenswet in the film.

Actor Kevin Conroy has been synonymous with Batman ever since he rendered his voice to the character in Batman: The Animated Series. The actor has gone on to lend his voice to Batman and Bruce Wayne in other media such as the Arkham games as well as WB’s DC Animated Universe films such as Batman: The Killing Joke and Batman: Mask of the Phantasm.
While Conroy has been known for his particular brand of performing the iconic superhero, he reportedly had issues with the way Zack Snyder depicted him in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice in 2016. The voice actor reportedly had issues, particularly with Batman’s penchant for killing in the film as he is famously known for his ‘no-kill’ rule.

In the comics, Batman has no shortage of sidekicks, who have each gone on to become important players in the DC landscape. While most Batman sidekicks serve as a lighter and more optimistic take on the Dark Knight’s ideology, one lesser-known sidekick is a dark and a radical mirror of the masked vigilante.
Ghost-Maker as depicted in DC Comics
In the comics, Ghost-Maker and Batman share a deep history and are often at odds with each other because of the former’s drastic approach to crime-fighting. As a result, Ghost-Maker might have served as a better blueprint for Zack Snyder’s take on the Dark Knight in the doomed Dceu.

The actor will be seen as the beloved ‘bio-exorcist’ Beetlegeuse in the upcoming sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the teaser of which debuted earlier this week. Keaton also starred as Bruce Wayne a.k.a Batman in last year’s Dceu film The Flash.
While fans were ecstatic to see Keaton don the cowl again, his casting in the original 1989 Batman did not receive the same fanfare. When he was cast as Wayne in the adaptation, many fans reportedly were outraged at the casting as he was known as a comedic actor. Fans reportedly wrote thousands of letters to Warner Bros. to dissuade them from casting Keaton.

Netflix periodically removes movies and TV shows from its streaming service due to the expiration of licensing agreements with content owners. Warner Bros. Pictures’ DC movies were added to Netflix in waves starting December 2023. This is part of Warner Bros. Discovery’s strategy to license more titles to third-party services like Netflix.
Consequently, 2023 marked the first time HBO titles were available on Netflix, with plans for more throughout the year, but the contract was short-term in nature over a period of 3-5 months, and now by the end of March, most DC superhero movies that remain on the platform will be removed. The list of the movies that will leave Netflix is as follows:
‘Man of Steel’ (2013) ‘Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice’ (2016) ‘Suicide Squad’ (2016) ‘Wonder Woman’ (2017) ‘Justice League’ (2017) ‘Shazam!’ (2018) ‘Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)’ (2020) ‘Wonder Woman 1984’ (2020) ‘The Suicide Squad’ (2021) ‘Black Adam’ (2022) ‘Shazam!

Jake Gyllenhaal still has his eyes set on hopefully playing Batman at some point during his acting career.
The actor was previously considered for the role of Bruce Wayne in Christopher Nolan’s 2005 Batman Begins, but the role ultimately went to Christian Bale. However, that hasn’t changed his aspirations of one day stepping into the Batsuit.
“Of course. It would be an honor always,” Gyllenhaal recently told Screen Rant when asked if he’s still interested. “Those types of things and those roles are classics.”
The Road House star went on to explain his admiration for characters he considers “classics,” and how he looks up to the actors who have played them over the years.
“Speaking of playing roles that other incredible actors have played in the past, to me actually roles that other incredible actors have played in the past, which, to me, actually, when I think about it,...

The Dcu films in the Zack Snyder era were undoubtedly divisive among fans. The discourse around the films has mostly steered towards the negative side with many feeling underwhelmed by the undercooked narratives and the unsatisfying world-building. While there were bright spots such as Wonder Woman, Shazam!, and Aquaman, others were not received as well as the three.
Many DC films including Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice are now streaming on Netflix
In addition to Max, Netflix also streamed most of the Dcu films of that era, making them accessible to people all over the world, especially in countries where Max is not available yet. Unfortunately, it seems Netflix is now removing various DC titles from its content by the end of March 2024.

Zack Snyder is a prolific filmmaker, and he pushes his creative muscles with every new film he makes. Not all his choices pay dividends, and some of his films have been severely panned by critics. However, he does not let the naysayers deter him from making the stories he is passionate about telling, and he has built up a loyal fanbase over the years.
Rebel Moon—Part One: A Child of Fire was one such project, which was not well received by the audience or the critics and got a rotten score of 21% on Rotten Tomatoes. However, Snyder is back with the second installment, Rebel Moon — Part Two: The Scargiver, and it looks very promising.
