Zack Snyder is ringing in the anniversary of the theatrical cut of Justice League in a heartfelt way. On Thursday, Snyder took to social media to share a piece of promo art from Zack Snyder’s Justice League, his intended and extended cut of the film that finally arrived on HBO Max last year. While many fans of the director don’t feel too positive about the theatrical cut of the film, which was finished by Joss Whedon after Snyder stepped away due to the sudden death of his daughter Autumn, the occasion of the original release date was often used by fans in subsequent years to campaign for the “Snyder Cut” to be finished. Snyder’s tweet paid tribute to that fan effort, as well as the fans’ efforts to raise money for mental health and suicide prevention.
Not only by your massive fundraising effort for mental health, but by having had a hand in creating something that will live forever. And for that, I am eternally grateful. #AFSP #ZSJL
