JUSTICE LEAGUE Director Zack Snyder Lists The Hulk And Iron Man As His Favorite Marvel Characters

Justice League & Army of the Dead director Zack Snyder took part in a Wired "Web's Most Searched Questions" autocomplete interview, and listed Iron Man and The Hulk as his favourite Marvel characters.

Zack Snyder kickstarted the DCEU with Man of Steel before going on to two more instalments in the franchise, and while he now appears to be done with Warner Bros.' DC Comics-based projects following the release of his "Snyder Cut" of Justice League, many believe it'll only be a matter of time before he returns to the superhero genre.

If and when that happens, could we see him make the jump to Marvel Studios?

Snyder has admitted to being a Marvel fan in the past, and reiterates his appreciation for Marvel Comics and movies while being interviewed for Wired's latest autocomplete YouTube video. He doesn't give any indication that he actually wants to helm an MCU project, of course, but does list The Hulk and Iron Man as his favourite characters.

It's far from the only interesting tidbit, as the filmmaker answers questions about Justice League, Army of the Dead, his directing style, and more. Check out the video for youselves below.

As unlikely as it may seem right now, Snyder writing/directing a Marvel film is not outside the realm of possibility. If it was to come to pass, which characters would you most like to see him tackle?

At this rate, if Snyder farts there’s got to be an article no?

@KingLeonidas - No, but if he follows through we'll be there to cover it.

Without the "you knows" he sounds so much like Mark Ruffalo in my opinion

@bkmeijer - Yea they actually sound really similar. It's quite uncanny at times.

No studio major studio will pay him to make a superhero movie. Maybe Netflix but he won't get his hands on any major IP ever again, especially at Marvel.

The only comic book property I would be remotely comfortable with Zack Snyder directing would be Spawn.

@Superspecialawesomeguy - That's a good shout tbh. My other pick, off the top of my head if he did a Marvel movie would be Punisher.

@Superspecialawesomeguy - Snyder and McFarlane would kill each other if you ever put them in the same aquarium to work together.

I actually wonder if Feige would be able to keep him on a leash...
And would Snyder be able to put away his pride and ego for a larger universe.

@sKeemAn - I don't think someone with a proven ego like Snyder is on Feiges list.
If he already knows that a director will retaliate one way or the other I doubt that he'll hire them

@sKeemAn - I think maybe if he direct something for the What if Show.

@Blergh - Oh, I agree completely. Snyder seems to want full control of a property and we have seen what he brings to the table.

I actually agree with him on this one, they're both pretty good characters. Still disappointed about the way hulk and bruce came to terms with each other off screen, hope the she-hulk tv show gives us more ruffalo.

@roboticJohnson - Smart Hulk followed the Thano's comic book story but I like this Smart Hulk because takes age for the actor out of equation.

My gut tells me She-Hulk has big plans for the Hulk where he loses by the end the series and Transfers into a different Hulk. The Hulk Snap was was all Gamma powered snap going to change the Hulk by the end.

Gut also tells me The Leader will be in She-Hulk.

@DoubleD - oh yes, I also like smart hulk but I wish we got that moment between bruce and hulk where they agree to coexist and merge into professor hulk, that happened off screen between infinity war and endgame and was a pretty important part of the character's story. As for the she-hulk theory, that's pretty good. I don't want to get my hopes up until we know more about it, plus it's been described as a sitcom or something like that iirc, but if they did decide to do something like that I'd love it.
