Warner Bros. has released another teaser for Zack Snyder's extended director's cut of Justice League, ahead of the trailer's official unveiling tomorrow at DC Fandome's Hall of Heroes event. The virtual convention experience is where fans will not just get the first official trailer, but also supposedly learn for sure whether the Snyder Cut will be released as a single feature film on HBO Max or, as some fans have suspected, as a prestige miniseries. Snyder, Ray Fisher, Ezra Miller, and others are expected to attend the event, which will also spotlight films like Wonder Woman 1984, Black Adam, and The Suicide Squad.

The new teaser gives fans a countdown to the event, which will take place tomorrow during the FanDome. The release of Zack Snyder's Justice League is the end result of years of lobbying by hardcore fans.

In November of 2017, fans began demanding the release of the "Snyder Cut" of the film, given how disappointed audiences were with the film that landed in theaters. Fans were initially holding out hope that this version of the film could be released on home video or on a streaming platform, similar to how Batman v Superman earned an R-rated "Ultimate Cut," but Warner Bros. regularly expressed that there was no interest on their part to share that unfinished film with fans.

Snyder had filmed a wildly different version of the film than what eventually hit theaters, after he departed the project following the death of his daughter. Warner Bros. brought in Joss Whedon, director of the first two Avengers films. Whedon's marching orders, it seems, were to make Justice League look and feel less like Man of Steel and Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and more like a Marvel movie. That certainly happened -- but it didn't please everyone, but instead pleased basically no one, and the movie was a box office disaster that was a significant domino that led to to some management changes at Warner Bros. and seemingly froze DC's film development in its place. Ironically, while the Snyder films' disappointing response from critics and some fans had kickstarted some uncertainty about the future of the DC film slate, it's the enthusiasm from the announcement that the Snyder Cut would be released, that seems to have opened a floodgate of good news, from the returns of Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck to new projects and an apparent sense of confidence that they haven't had since before Batman v Superman.
