After many years of waiting, DC fans finally have access to
Zack Snyder’s Justice League
. The four-hour cut is streaming now on HBO Max and introduces plenty of
changes and new characters
to the Justice League.
The film differs a lot from Whedon’s version of the film, particularly in terms of aesthetics. Snyder previously said he would
not be using any of Whedon’s footage
and he changed a lot of the visual effects elements from the theatrical release, such as
Steppenwolf’s look
and the
red skies of the final battle
.

Justice League
yet.

Titled

For the record,
Justice is Gray
is a black and white version of the same cut released on HBO Max.
Snyder teased the black and white version
of his film last month saying it was his
“ultimate version”
and that its
“the penultimate ridiculous movie that shouldn’t exist at its highest most fetishistic level.”
Given Snyder’s directing style, which saw his film released entirely in a 4:3 aspect ratio, it’s not too surprising to learn he also planned a monochrome version.

The Snyder cut is already full of vibrant colors and costumes, so it’ll be interesting to see how these elements translate to black and white. The scene shown in the
Justice is Gray
trailer shows that monochrome definitely suits the aesthetic of the Batcave, but whether it works as well for other color-heavy scenes is yet to be seen.
It’s not unusual to see black and white re-releases of films these days. It’s been done with
Logan, Parasite
and
Max Mad: Fury Road
, and the Snyder Cut will be the latest to join these ranks.
