Zack Snyder is once again making headlines nearly five years after the fan-driven #ReleaseTheSnyderCut movement was launched. The former DC Extended Universe director is currently facing allegations of fabricating the whole movement with the help of social media bots and fake accounts.
Rolling Stone published a report this week with data seemingly backing up their claims that the Snyder Cut movement was inorganic all along. Snyder was also accused of hiring a marketing firm to combat the negative reviews Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice received in 2016.
Following the allegations which interestingly coincided with the digital release of Zack Snyder's Justice League, the filmmaker posted a cryptic message on his Vero account. Now, it doesn't look like he's taking the accusations seriously. Once again taking to the social media platform, Snyder chose to poke fun at the latest controversy that is making the entire comic book film fandom buzz.
Sharing a mock poster of his "upcoming" film — a Batman v Superman parody starring cartoon icons Tom & Jerry, he wrote: "Can't wait to bring my dark vision to these iconic characters over a five movie arc shot entirely in black-and-white anamorphic IMAX. See you in Hall H for the announcement". Check it out here.

It turns out that the animosity between Zack Snyder and Warner Bros. still isn't over and with the studio firing a major blow at the director, it's easily an indication that they're officially ending their partnership with him. Now, there's no doubt that WB is moving forward with its vision of the DCEU.
That said, both versions of Zack Snyder's Justice League are streaming on HBO Max.
