The world of pop-culture has been hit by a storm, or so it would seem. The announcement that the Snyder cut would indeed be seeing the light of day is nothing short of an event. Everyone has something to say about the announcement; from media sites who believe that this sets a bad precedent to fans who are happy to see a creative vision fulfilled. Castmembers have also chimed in, and they are all overflowing with glee. Henry Cavill posted a reaction saying how he’s really stoked to see the movie getting a wide release and that more Justice League is good for everyone.
In any case, the film is going to be released and there are more castmembers who have a lot to say. Chief among them is Ben Affleck. Affleck’s role as Batman was widely hailed as one of the best things about the Snyder-led DCEU. So, it isn’t really surprising that the actor wants the cut released, given how Justice League’s theatrical cut was botched.
