Either way, the wait is almost over – territories like the US, UK and Australia are all going to get to see Zack Snyder's Justice League simultaneously on its release date of March 18, 2021. The new cut follows the same plot as 2017's theatrical release, which sees the alien warrior Steppenwolf coming to Earth in search of powerful items called Mother Boxes, while Batman and Wonder Woman attempt to form a team to stop the alien invasion and save Earth. Can they do it without Superman, who died at the end of Batman v Superman?
We've seen the film and it's a largely grim affair with around two mostly dull hours of exposition before the story actually kicks into gear. Still, it is a more tonally consistent film than the original cut, and it's a genuinely fascinating artifact that shows the differences editing and artistic sensibilities can make to a finished movie. That said, it's a shame the end result couldn't be more entertaining – even if you do get a much better final battle in this version.
Here's when you can watch Zack Snyder's Justice League this week on HBO Max in the US, Sky/Now TV in the UK and Binge/Foxtel in Australia.
HBO Max confirmed to us that Zack Snyder's Justice League will release on March 18 at 12.01am PDT/3.01am EDT. If you're US-based, then, get ready to stay up super late if you want to watch the revised superhero film the second it drops on HBO Max.
Zack Snyder's Justice League will release simultaneously in the UK as it lands in the US. Sky Cinema Premiere is showing it starting at 7.02AM GMT on Thursday, March 18 – the film will be available to stream on-demand on Sky and Now TV (via the Sky Cinema Pass) at the exact same time. Sky confirmed this with us earlier this week.
Zack Snyder's Justice League will land in Australia from 6pm AEDT on Thursday, March 18, and will be available to watch on the Binge and Foxtel Now streaming services. Unfortunately, Zack Snyder's Justice League will not be available to stream at the full 4K resolution in Australia, as both Binge and Foxtel Now max out at 1080p.
We are looking forward to watch this epic battle.
