Zack Snyder has revealed another cut Justice League moment featuring the iconic DC Comics villain Darkseid.
This morning, Zack Snyder took to the social media platform Vero to post a new tidbit about his Justice League cut: his version of the movie had Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman decapitating Steppenwolf. The director shared a few images from the scene before revealing how it would played out and set up Darkseid for his Justice League sequel.
In the post’s comments, Zack Snyder revealed that Steppenwolf’s severed head would have ended up at Darkseid’s feet through a boom tube that collapsed after the Justice League destroyed the three Mother Boxes. The team would have seen Darkseid and his forces on the other side of the portal before its destruction.

Last month, Zack Snyder dropped the first official image of Darkseid from the film’s original “History Lesson” scene. A few weeks later, Snyder posted another photo of Darkseid from the same scene, giving fans another look at his take on the iconic villain.
Here is the official synopsis for Justice League:
Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Directed by Zack Snyder, Justice League stars Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Amy Adams, Gal Gadot, Ezra Miller, Jason Momoa, Ray Fisher, Jeremy Irons, Diane Lane, Connie Nielsen, J. K. Simmons, and Ciarán Hinds.
Justice League is available on Blu-Ray, DVD, and Digital HD. Stay tuned for the latest news on Zack Snyder and the DC Extended Universe.
