    Here's just the top Google search:

    It's not even close to speculation.

    Zack Snyder's "rough cut" of Justice League was about 150 mins. It included a Steppenwolf without the humanoid face (which is why his CGI sucked), the Anti-Life Equation, and a Darkseid tease. Snyder's Russian battle was also more black and blue than orange and purple. This color-correction done by Joss Whedon is part of what made Superman's anti-stache bad. The tone of the movie is what all of the CGI is prepared to, so when you change it like this, it ends up with poor graphics.

    There was also backstory for The Flash (including his girlfriend) and Cyborg (including pre-integration with both of his parents), more Mrs. Kent and Lois Lane stuff, Black Suit Superman (and a scene where he ditches the black suit for his righteous red and blue), Vulko giving advice to Aquaman, more Mera, etc. Snyder and others behind-the-scene have revealed tons of information regarding the Snyder Cut.

    That sounds WAY better than what was delivered!

    This is not correct. Warner Bros used this as a way to keep Justice League chatter in a positive light. It came out, long ago, that Snyder was fired from the project. Zack Snyder has not even seen Justice League because of this.

    Edit: They also used his daughter's passing scapegoat as a way to get fans to believe that Snyder's vision of direction for the movie would stay in tact, because had he left the project, he would retain all approval and rejection for the movie's material. As the finished project shows us, that was not the case. WB wanted a shorter movie, so that they could show the movie in more slots per theater. What the insufficiently_thoughtful_persons at WB didn't realize is that no matter how short or long the movie is. if it isn't great, people are not going to fill those seats.

    Source? Or just speculation?

    AFAIK, Cavill doesn't want out. Warner Bros is making the decision to part ways. Why? I have no Frkin idea. Kevin Feige and Marvel Studios wins. After 10 years, I think DC is now dead in the water (to me, at least). They have the best 2 comic properties in Batman and Superman, and they screw it all up by now letting their 2 Justice League actors go.

    Edit: And, for the record, I love the Dawn of Justice Director's Cut. I think that Justice League could have been great had Zack Snyder not been fired. Joss Whedon has been on-record as saying that Steppenwolf is "one of the worst comic characters ever". They cut too much back story on the new characters. Blah blah blah. I thought Justice League was still good.

    I just had to clarify the bold part. He wasn't fired from JL, his daughter committed suicide and he chose (rightly so!) to take a leave of absence.

    That's awesome that she shared it with you. I also heard that there might be a female predator this time around, that should be cool to see.

    Yeah, I got to see so much behind the scenes stuff - I love all that movie magic stuff. It's really cool in person. In fact, I still have the security pass on my car that let me on the lot (I was her ride daily) i'll take a pic and post it later on.

    A female one would be hella cool but I don't know that's true. I'm sure I would have heard about it as she worked on the original shooting and both sets of reshoots. I think the Super Predator is the 'big baddie' or at least that's the guess I have based on my limited knowledge. Or maybe the female could be slated for a sequel?

    Whichever way they go with it, I'm excited to see it!! The latest predator costume design looks great as well.

    Fun fact: My sig other worked heavily on that costume. :P She would come home all the time and show me pics of bits she painted/aged/worked on that day. I agree it looks very cool!

    I got the Predator 2 vibe as well. I guess one of the characters in the new movie is the son of Gary Busey's character in Predator 2, so there is some connection.

    From what I understand, it's supposed to follow the original Predator so that would make sense.

     

    I had a chance to check out the sets when it was shooting and they looked amazing! (sig other worked on it)
