Zack Snyder Explains Batman V Superman’s Infamous Martha Scene

It’s a scene that divided audiences, but you can certainly see Zack Snyder’s comments reflected in Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. As Batman lifts his kryptonite spear to destroy Superman, he calls out for Martha. The Dark Knight sees vision of his own mother’s death in that moment, revealing himself to be the killer in this scenario. It’s exactly the wake up call Batman needed, and allows for the two heroes to eventually team up alongside Wonder Woman.
