Zack Snyder Would "Absolutely" Be Open To Finishing His DCEU Saga... On One Condition

Even though the "SnyderVerse" is officially at an end, Zack Snyder has revealed that he would be open to continuing/finishing the saga that began with Man of Steel over a decade ago...

The "SnyderVerse" began with Man of Steel back in 2013, with Zack Snyder himself going on to helm Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League, and many of the characters he introduced continuing their adventures in what (unofficially) came to be known as the DCEU.

Snyder's movies were never embraced by the majority of critics and only performed adequately at the box office, but the filmmaker's vision for his roster of iconic DC Comics heroes was embraced by a lot of fans, who were very disappointed when James Gunn and Peter Safran's "rebooted" DCU was announced.

Snyder just recently made the end of the DCEU official, but the Rebel Moon director has now revealed that he would be open to continuing/finishing the saga he began over a decade ago... under one condition.

"If Netflix had the rights to the characters from my DC universe, of course I would do it, absolutely," Snyder told CulturaOcio.com.

Of course, that's a huge "if"!

President of Netflix Films, Scott Stuber, did recently admit that he would love to acquire the rights: "Obviously we would love to license it at some point. We'd love to have it so fans can experience more Zack. The more Zack we have the better we are."

But with the new DCU on the horizon and Gunn already announcing plans for heavy hitters such as Superman and Batman, the chances of Netflix getting hold of the rights seem very slim. Then again, we know that Matt Reeves' "BatVerse" and Todd Phillips' Joker movies are now considered ElseWorlds projects, so who knows? Maybe some day Snyder will get the opportunity to go back and complete his DC saga.

What do you think? Would you like to see Snyder revisit these characters, maybe just for one more Justice League movie? Drop us a comment down below.

"Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman's selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists newfound ally Diana Prince to face an even greater threat. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to recruit a team to stand against this newly awakened enemy. Despite the formation of an unprecedented league of heroes -- Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and the Flash -- it may be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions."

I feel like the ending of ZSJL was a coda for Zack's tenure at DC. Sure, there's a brief tease of what could happen but it also feels like a complete ending. He knew WB wouldn't be able to finish his storyline so he wanted to give it closure. I liked Army of the Dead and I'll watch Rebel Moon although the trailers haven't really impressed me. He seems a lot happier at Netflix since they're letting him do whatever he wants which is something WB didn't let him do.

He moved on and I wish his rabid fanbase could as well.

@HumanRubiksCube - i find it comical that you think that green lighting any more zack snyder DC content would ‘put the whole thing to bed’. Have you met these people?? I’m sure WB/HBO thought giving him money to finish his cut of JL would put it to bed too, yet here we are 2 years later….

Zach Snyder was at his best when he was in the Amazon with my mom when she was researching spiders right before she died

I like most of his movies, can't stand his fans. When people start harassing actors, executives, filmakers the way they do it becomes so exhausting, repetitive, and even dangerous.

"If Netflix had the rights to the characters from my DC universe" What an arrogant, pretentious, pompous ass thing to say "MY DC"... f*ck outta here

Keep Snyder far away from this property. The only thing I could conceive of him doing well is Man of Steel 2 as long as he gets someone else to write it.

Warmer Brothers should sell the rights to Legendary the co-production company that is responsible for Man of Steel and The Dark Knight Trilogy as well as Dune and the Godzilla Monsterverse. They would crush it!

Honestly, this is the only way id want it to continue anyways.

DC as a whole is moving on, they have new people in charge working on new projects and have a new focus. So everyone who complained about Snyder should be satisfied now knowing his vision won't hinder future DC content, no matter the outcome.

So, in my eyes, let Netflix buy the rights to make new content in the Snyderverse, and then they can let Zack cook.
