Yesterday saw Zack and Deborah Snyder announce they will be stepping down from being involved with the DCEU and the Justice League movie.
Citing the recent death of their daughter, Zack Snyder announced he will no longer be directing Justice League and that his wife Deborah will no longer be producing.
Joss Whedon has been brought on board in post-production and will write additional Justice League scenes and film re-shoots. The movie still has a planned November 17th release date.
Following the news, an outpouring of support hit social media, with many fans and celebs offering condolences and support for the Snyder’s.
Zack Snyder took to Twitter to thank everyone.
Thanks for the outpouring of support. I can’t express how much it means to Debbie & I and Autumn’s mother, Denise, at such a difficult time.
