A fabled director's cut of 2017's Justice League got a boost on Sunday, the second anniversary of the film's release.

In May 2017, filmmaker Zack Snyder stepped down as director of Justice League after the death of his daughter, Autumn Snyder, so he could be with his family. Director Joss Whedon boarded the Warner Bros./DC superhero team-up movie to write new scenes and to complete the project through reshoots.

Justice League earned a disappointing $657.9 million globally, and fans have always wondered what could have been had Snyder completed his vision. In the intervening years, there has been a groundswell of fans asking Warner Bros. to release the "Snyder Cut," a rumored version of Justice League that seemed unlikely to ever see the light of day (that is, assuming it even existed).
