Justice League: All The DC Characters Being Added Into The Snyder Cut

The Snyder Cut only continues to keep DC fans brimming with anticipation as new gripping revelations have come to light. In addition to the expected sight of Superman, Wonder Woman, Batman, Aquaman, Cyborg, and The Flash, other characters will be involved in director Zack Snyder’s new official cut.

Justice League Characters

This is not just counting the baddies whose roles in the film are expanding from one brief fight scene or a post-credits sequence. Several fan favourite DC characters, mostly through reshoots, will be added into the new four-hour cut. This will be presented in four separate chapters when it drops exclusively on HBO Max in 2021.

Some of these characters will be a reprise from a previous DCEU instalment. While others will be making their live action debut – or, at least, their official debut into the franchise.

Let us take a look at some of them and let us know who you are excited to see more off.

The Joker

In 2016, Jared Leto performed a new take on Batman’s clownish arch nemesis in Suicide Squad. He was not given enough screen time to judge properly.

Well, it appears he will be given a fair shot in when he reprises The Joker for Zack Snyder’s Justice League. 

Nuidis Vulko

Arthur Curry’s mentor Nuidis Vulko brought to life by Willem Dafoe in the 2018 blockbuster hit Aquaman.

The Academy Award nominee – no stranger to comic book movies from playing Green Goblin in Spider-Man, shot scenes that were deleted from the theatrical release of Justice League.

They will be reworked into the Snyder Cut, which is the extent of all we currently know about Vulko’s role in the film.

Martian Manhunter

J’onn J’onzz (better known as Martian Manhunter) hotly enough to suggest a theory that Calvin Swanwick (played by Harry Lennix in Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice) is really the shapeshifting alien cop in disguise.

He will officially come to fruition in Zack Snyder’s Justice League when the actor reprises the DCEU role for the ultimate reveal.

Darkseid
Darkseid

While Jared Leto’s Joker is getting a second chance in the Snyder Cut, getting his first chance is Darkseid – a New God and Apokolips’ tyrannical leader, created by Jack Kirby in 1970, hellbent on conquering the universe by suppressing all hope and free will.

Desaad

Even the most power-hungry, ego-centric tyrants need a right-hand man, and that is what Desaad has been to Darkseid since he manipulated him to his level as a child, turning him into the deceptive, sadistic torture specialist he is known as today.

Iris West

The 2017 theatrical release also did not provide the full extent of Barry Allen’s (Ezra Miller) intended story, leaving out any mention of Iris West – his love interest whom Kiersey Clemons was cast to play in 2016 for The Flash solo movie.

It was revealed soon after that she filmed a cameo for Justice League, which also never saw the light of day until it resurfaced in the Snyder Cut promo footage.
