JUSTICE LEAGUE: Zack Snyder Confirms THE SNYDER CUT Will Release Globally The Same Day As The U.S.

Zack Snyder's Justice League hits HBO Max on March 18th, but as that's U.S.-exclusive, most fans across the world have been left in the dark. Thankfully, a simultaneous global release is now confirmed!

When it was announced that Zack Snyder's Justice League would be released on HBO Max on March 18th, fans outside the U.S. were left in the dark when it came to global release plans.

A handful of countries (like Canada and New Zealand) announced when and where it would be available, but Warner Bros. revealed nothing for Europe, Latin America, and other major territories. Whether that was down to underestimating the global demand for the "Snyder Cut" or uncertainty surrounding how to launch the movie when HBO Max is a U.S.-exclusive service is unclear.

We have some good news today, though, as Snyder has officially announced plans for a worldwide, simultaneous release for his version of Justice League.

You can check out his announcement Tweet below, but a press release states, "Zack Snyder's Justice League will be made available worldwide in all markets day and date with the US on Thursday, March 18 (with the exception of China, France and Japan, where the release dates are TBD)."

"The feature film will be available in each market via one of the following distribution options – PVOD, PEST, EST, SVOD, TVOD, HBO linear and on HBO Go (in HBO Europe and HBO Asia territories), or via a local TV provider," it continues. "Additional details for each specific market will be shared in the upcoming weeks."

We'll hopefully have more to share with you soon, but keep an eye on your local providers!

Huh. I'm guessing this means it'll be on Hotstar in India since that's where a good portion of HBO content is going these days.

@GeneralZod - Snyder, Fisher, and Ray Porter are probably about 70% of the movie's actual marketing team.

He said there'll be an intermission if it releases in cinemas, right? Kinda hoping that'll be signalled somewhere in the home release too, I'm looking forward to it but 4 hours is a lot in one sitting.

@AC1 - they could do it like the LOTR extended cuts where its 2 discs. Would even be better for the 4K transition to look as crisp as possible

@Origame - yeah I’m setting a timer tbh and hitting stop at the 2 hour mark , finish It the next day my ADD won’t let me sit through a 4 hr movie

@ShimmyShimmyYA - yeah I don't see the need to have an intermission for the streaming release. Theaters definitely but at home you can choose when to start it and stop it whenever you feel like.

I just want this movie to come out so I can see it and we can be done with all this. I was a fan of snyder, but with all the shit he's been doing with this movie and all of what he's been talking about has made me like him less and less. Especially the whole 4:3 aspect ratio thing, it's so stupid pointless and uncessecary.

@Mrcool210 - Thsi movie has to come so we can move on to the AyerCut Campaign.

@Waddles - Bc it was shot for IMAX. Normally what they do is when something has imax shots they meticulously reframe everything for home video an streaming since it will have a different aspect ratio. They did that for BVS as well so that when it changes to 4:3 it wouldn’t seem odd bc in a theater the view expands but on a locked screen it shrinks. My guess is the extra work to reframe everything is something they didn’t want to spend the money or time doing to they are just releasing the full frame version that would have been shown in imax showings

@Waddles

Snyder shot basically everything on film with a 4:3 aspect ratio (which is tecnically 1:43:1 or something) for an Imax projector, cause usually that's the one you use for Imax 70mm.

And unlike a widescreen theater, it offers a square type of image, f*cking huge.

But for a homevideo release, you're "forced" to crop some shit, cause you're dealing with a widescreen platform.

So because he didn't shoot with an Imax 35mm and the movie is a streaming exclusive (heh, yeah right! :P) not only you lose all the f*cking advantages of an Imax projection but since you're dealing with widescreens, you end up with 2 black blocks on your left and right.

I dunno if HBO Max will opt for some kinda compromise and maybe crop something, i remember reading an aspect ratio of 1:66:1, you'll still have 2 black blocks but at least it won't be that big.

Hope this helps!
