DC Snyderverse’s Return Chances Are Less Likely After New Netflix/Warner Update

Efforts by fans to revive Zack Snyder’s vision for the DC Universe have faced a setback. Recent news about Netflix potentially acquiring the DC comic book franchise has complicated the situation. Since the release of Zack Snyder’s Justice League on HBO Max in 2021, fans have been hoping for the continuation of Snyder’s DC storylines.

With Zack Snyder actively releasing films on Netflix, many fans hoped the streaming service would be the place to see his planned sequels to Justice League and any other future movies in his shared universe. The problem is, Netflix doesn’t own the rights to the DC characters. This could change if Netflix were to buy Warner Bros. Discovery, but that possibility has become increasingly difficult.

3 Studios Will Bid For Warner, But Only Netflix Makes Sense For The Snyderverse

Although there was initial confusion and conflicting information, it’s now clear that Netflix is seriously considering purchasing Warner Bros. Discovery. A major draw is Warner’s extensive library of valuable content, including the DC universe and the potential to revive the Snyderverse. But Netflix isn’t the only contender – Paramount and Comcast are also expected to make offers to buy Warner.

Out of all the potential options, Netflix seems like the most logical place for the Snyderverse to continue. DC has already shifted its focus with James Gunn’s new universe, highlighted by the successful Superman film starring David Corenswet. Plus, neither Paramount nor Comcast have any connection to Zack Snyder or any reason to revive the often-controversial Snyderverse.

As a big fan of Zack Snyder’s DC vision, I always thought it was a shame things didn’t work out. I remember hearing Netflix was interested in his movies before, but they couldn’t get the rights to the DC characters themselves. Now, with Warner Bros. Discovery potentially being sold, it feels like Netflix is the most likely place for the ‘Snyderverse’ to come back to life – if it ever does. It just makes the most sense!

A Major Warner Bros. Discovery Sale Update Might Mean Bad News For DC Snyderverse Return Chances

Okay, so the buzz about Netflix potentially acquiring Warner Bros. and reviving Zack Snyder’s DC universe? It’s hit a snag. Word on the street – and Variety is reporting this – is that Paramount is now leading the charge. They’re apparently putting together a massive $71 billion bid, backed by some serious financial power from investment funds in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi. It looks like Paramount might be the ones to end up with Warner, not Netflix, throwing a wrench into any Snyderverse comeback hopes.

Paramount has stated it isn’t working with certain companies, but a recent Reuters report suggests Paramount Skydance is the leading candidate to acquire Warner Bros. Discovery. This raises the question of whether the Snyderverse could be revived if a different studio takes over Warner. However, with Paramount currently favored in the deal, the possibility of seeing the Snyderverse return seems increasingly unlikely.
