A newly circulated stunt video shows some behind-the-scenes fight rehearsal footage from Zack Snyder’s cut of Justice League. The DC superhero ensemble departed heavily from Snyder’s plans after its infamous reshoots, leading to an ongoing grassroots push aimed at persuading Warner Bros. to release the Snyder Cut of Justice League. With Snyder providing photographic verification of his cut existing, along with Jason Momoa confirming to have seen it, the Snyder Cut has more than permeated the mainstream consciousness.
The movie’s two-year anniversary marked an especially massive turning point for demand for the Snyder Cut, with Gal Gadot and Ben Affleck making their support for it public. Their endorsement of the Snyder Cut would also be accompanied by a huge influx of support from other Hollywood A-listers. Snyder himself has also given the movie a re-branding of sorts, with a newly released T-shirt which titles his version of the film “Zack Snyder’s Justice League”.
Twitter user The Zack Snyder Bible has also recently shared a behind-the-scenes video showing stunt people rehearsing for a major battle sequence in the movie. Based on the video, the rehearsal appears to be for the history lesson, which featured a battle between the Greek demigods and the various tribes of humanity to repel the forces of Apokolips during their initial invasion. The video was posted early last year but appears to only just now be getting noticed. Check out the Justice League fight rehearsal video below:
As with virtually every aspect of Justice League, the history lesson went through major alterations as a result of the reshoots. It should be emphasized that this isn’t the only stunt video relating to Snyder’s version of Justice League to arrive online. This past November saw the movie’s stunt coordinator Freddy Bouciegues also release a reel of fight rehearsal footage. Boucieges’ video, along with a number of Snyder’s social media posts, would also point to there being a battle between the Justice League and Steppenwolf in S.T.A.R. Labs in Snyder’s original cut of the movie.
Ultimately, the video is just one more piece of the Snyder Cut puzzle that is being assembled at an increasingly accelerated rate. With the push for the Snyder Cut’s release sure to continue in 2020, it remains to be seen what the end result will ultimately be. However, with morsels of Snyder’s original plan such as the fight rehearsal video regularly trickling out, it is increasingly undeniable that Zack Snyder’s Justice League is rapidly becoming one of Hollywood’s most hyped superhero movies, with or without any official release plans attached.
