More about Justice League

Justice League was released in November 2017  and it certainly created a wave of mixed reviews regarding the famous superhero franchise. Because of a number of extensive reshoots, the original film is completely different from what Snyder’s vision was for the film. The production phase of the Justice League was not a smooth run for the makers. They were facing several issues like the directors were being replaced  due to unforeseen reasons and Cavill's poorly removed moustache via CG. The fans of the famous superhero franchise have taken things in their hands and have initiated "Release the Snyder Cut" movement, which demands that Warner Bros. release the original cut of the film with Junkie XL's previous efforts.
