When Zack Snyder got the opportunity to return to his Justice League and complete the four-hour Snyder Cut of the abandoned movie, he received closure on a number of dangling story threads. But in the process of finishing the movie, he also embarked on a few reshoots that he wanted to be set in the “Knightmare” version of Earth that had been teased in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. This brutal, scorched-Earth reality would have happened after Superman (Henry Cavill) broke from reality and went “evil,” siding with Darkseid and blaming Batman (Ben Affleck) for the death of Lois Lane (Amy Adams). But there was a line of dialogue in the reshoots that I thought was important, so when given the opportunity, I asked Snyder about it.
