That’s what the original “Justice League” director said in a new interview, explaining why he didn’t return to helm “Justice League” after stepping away during post-production and reshoots because of the suicide death of one of his eight children.An earlier version of this story said Zack Snyder’s cut of “Justice League” would be a four-part series. It is a four-hour feature film.
Snyder had been fighting with the studio over his “Justice League” vision when tragedy struck his family, he told‘s Sean O’Connell whose book “Release the Snyder Cut” comes out March 1. The director never completed his cut of the movie — until now. “I just was kind of done with it,” said the director, 54. “I was in this place of [knowing] my family needs me more than this ... and I just need to honor them and do the best I can to heal that world.”Snyder said he had “no energy” to fight the studio as the film’s November 2017 release date approached.
“Literally, zero energy for that. I really think that’s the main thing,” he said. “I think there’s a different world where I stayed and kind of tried. And I’m sure I could have . . . because every movie is a fight, right? I was used to that. But ... there was no fight in me. I had been beaten by what was going on in my life and I just didn’t want to, I didn’t care to . . . that was kind of where I was.
I would leave to if i had to work under toby emmerich, the wanna be kevin feige & worst warnerbros wbpictures exec ever. TheSnyderCut
I would leave too if wbpictures put a comic writer to police me an actual film director. SnyderCut
please add to the caption that his “zero energy” was due to his daughter’s passing and put his energy to grieve with his family. The caption is misleading. Do better please. Reason why you “journalists” are not respected anymore.
You can only imagine the horrific politics, corrupt battles, inputs from idiots, and obnoxious approval ladders that besets these filmmakers. At the same time, STFU. People would kill to have your 7-figure comic book movie job.
Oh, sweet. A paywall just to read an article.
thanks
