One of the most eagerly anticipated movie releases of 2021 isn't actually a new film at all, but rather the extended director's cut version of 2017 DC Comics blockbuster, Justice League. Follow our guide below as we explain how to watch Justice League online and stream the Snyder Cut.
Featuring a who's who of DC's best-loved superheroes including Batman (Ben Affleck), Superman (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), The Flash (Erza Miller) and Aquaman (Jason Momoa), the Justice League that made it to theaters a few years ago was a commercial and critical disappointment, netting a mortal $658 million at the box office and receiving decidedly mixed reviews.
Release date: March 18, 2021
Cast: Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, Ray Fisher, Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller, Willem Dafoe, Jesse Eisenberg, Jeremy Irons
Watch in US: exclusively on HBO Max
Watch in UK: Sky Cinema Premiere
Watch in Canada: Crave
Watch in Australia: get a FREE Binge trial
Many saw the creative vision for the film as compromised by the fact that two directors had worked on the project, with much of original filmmaker Zack Snyder's work reportedly scrapped when he was replaced by Joss Whedon.
The theatrical version was not only a huge disappointment for fans of the existing DCU 'Snyderverse', the superhero team-up film also underperformed at the box office, bringing in just US$658 million in ticket sales – significantly less than what the standalone Wonder Woman film made just a few months earlier.
Now, fans can see for themselves what Justice League would have looked like if Snyder had stayed at the helm, with the infamous four-hour Snyder Cut just around the corner on HBO Max in the US, as well as a number of other well-known streaming services and PVOD platforms all over the world.
The wait is nearly over. Read on as we explain how to watch Justice League online and stream the full Snyder Cut movie this week.
