In a new clip from the upcoming fan edit Justice League: Black Suit Edition, Superman (Henry Cavill) has his first meeting with Alfred Pennyworth (Jeremy Irons).
After Superman died in the comics in 1993 at the hands of Doomsday, there was a period of time when four different Supermen took over his on-going titles. When the Man of Steel made his return, he came back with a mullet and an iconic black/silver costume.
The Death of Superman inspired the third act of 2016’s Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, which featured Cavill’s Superman perishing during a battle with Doomsday. Director Zack Snyder originally planned to have the hero return in Justice League wearing his the iconic black suit, but after the infamous post-production issues of the film, the black suit was ultimately cut. A fan named Chris Dawson is attempting to bring Snyder’s vision to fruition and he just released an awesome new clip via Twiter.
Dawson is in the midst of releasing a fan edit titled Justice League: Black Suit Edition, which restores much of Snyder’s original vision, including the black suit. Check out a new clip from the fan edit below, which features Superman meeting Alfred in the awesome costume.
