'Justice League': Zack Snyder Busts Reports About Three-Hour Long Running Time; Explains Superman's 'Death'

With the "Justice League" trailer now available for public consumption, fans can now break down the clip as many times as they like, and find some Easter eggs and clues about what story the upcoming film will tell. Recently, news broke out that the film will be 170 minutes long, or a little under three hours.

Three Hours Long?

"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" clocked in at 151 minutes, and it seems like 170 is a stretch. Thank God, Zack Snyder cleared the air about an alleged three-hour long running time, as he also explained Superman's "death" in last year's "BvS."

According to Screenrant, "Justice League" director, Zack Snyder responded to a question on Twitter about the three-hour long running time of the film. As he busted reports about this, he mentioned that the first cut for "Justice League" was screened for IMDB, thus the reason why the page indicates that it clocks in at 170 minutes. Now, a first cut may be ways away from the final cut. The movie won't be out until Nov., so it will most likely receive a lot of edits before then.

What's Next For Superman?

Now, it would be interesting to see what role Superman will play in "Justice League," as Zack Snyder explained how his "death" sparked the beginning of "Justice League." While Zack Snyder remains coy about whether Superman will be in "Justice League," many signs point to yes, despite his absence in the trailer.

First of all, Henry Cavill took to Instagram to share a snapshot of details on his costume. Additionally, Zack Snyder also admitted that he plays "a big part in this movie."

Another point Movie Pilot emphasized was that of rebooting Superman to be a more positive character than what he was in both "Man of Steel" and "Batman v Superman." Clark Kent may have some takeaways as he comes back from the dead and rejoins "Justice League." Fans will have to wait until Nov. 17 to find out how exactly Superman returns.
