‘Justice League’: The Age of Heroes Comes Again in Brand New Trailer for Zack Snyder’s Rated “R” Cut

Published

on

Zack Snyder‘s 4-hour “Snyder Cut” of DC superhero movie Justice League is coming exclusively to HBO Max on March 18, and the new trailer we were promised has arrived today.

The “Snyder Cut” is said to be quite a bit different and a whole lot darker than the film’s theatrical cut, with both Jared Leto‘s Joker from Suicide Squad (sporting a brand new look) and DC super-villain Darkseid (played by Ray Porter) being brought into the mix for it. Unlike the theatrical cut, this version is rated “R,” more in line with Snyder’s originally intended vision.

The long-awaited “Snyder Cut” of the movie is packed with previously shot footage from Zack Snyder’s version of Justice League that we’ve never seen, along with 4 or 5 minutes of entirely new footage that Snyder began shooting just last year. Warner Bros. reportedly spent tens of millions of dollars to make the film happen, largely in response to fan demand.

Check out the brand spankin’ new trailer for Snyder’s director’s cut of Justice League below, which is loaded with Darkseid footage and even our first footage of Leto’s Joker in the film.

In Justice League, fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.

Dev Patel’s ‘Monkey Man’ Is Now Available to Watch at Home!

After pulling in $28 million at the worldwide box office this month, director (and star) Dev Patel’s critically acclaimed action-thriller Monkey Man is now available to watch at home.

You can rent Monkey Man for $19.99 or digitally purchase the film for $24.99!

Monkey Man is currently 88% Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, with Bloody Disgusting’s head critic Meagan Navarro awarding the film 4.5/5 stars in her review out of SXSW back in March.

Meagan raves, “While the violence onscreen is palpable and painful, it’s not just the exquisite fight choreography and thrilling action set pieces that set Monkey Man apart but also its political consciousness, unique narrative structure, and myth-making scale.”

“While Monkey Man pays tribute to all of the action genre’s greats, from the Indonesian action classics to Korean revenge cinema and even a John Wick joke or two, Dev Patel’s cultural spin and unique narrative structure leave behind all influences in the dust for new terrain,” Meagan’s review continues.

She adds, “Monkey Man presents Dev Patel as a new action hero, a tenacious underdog with a penetrating stare who bites, bludgeons, and stabs his way through bodies to gloriously bloody excess. More excitingly, the film introduces Patel as a strong visionary right out of the gate.”

Inspired by the legend of Hanuman, Monkey Man stars Patel as Kid, an anonymous young man who ekes out a meager living in an underground fight club where, night after night, wearing a gorilla mask, he is beaten bloody by more popular fighters for cash. After years of suppressed rage, Kid discovers a way to infiltrate the enclave of the city’s sinister elite. As his childhood trauma boils over, his mysteriously scarred hands unleash an explosive campaign of retribution to settle the score with the men who took everything from him.

Monkey Man is produced by Jordan Peele’s Monkeypaw Productions.
