Zack Snyder has released the first image of his redesigned Steppenwolf for the Snyder Cut of Justice League. Snyder was the credited director on Justice League when it hit theaters in 2017, but it was clear to fans that the movie was not what he intended it to be. He left the project earlier that year following the death of his daughter, which left Warner Bros. and Joss Whedon to finish (and heavily reshoot) the film.
The changes made to Justice League by the studio are significant, as story points and character arcs were completely changed or removed for the theatrical cut. But, fans will finally be able to see Snyder’s version of Justice League when it released on HBO Max in 2021. His cut of the movie (which might be released as a mini-series) will incorporate several elements that haven’t been seen. Much has been made about Darkseid’s role in the film, but Steppenwolf will still be the main villain. However, Snyder has previously confirmed he’ll look quite different, and now he’s shared the first look.
Snyder shared a low-res image of Steppenwolf from his cut of Justice League on Vero today. The image showcases the drastically different and scarier design that the villain will have in the Snyder Cut. Even though the image is low resolution, Snyder teased that “he’s a thing to behold” in HD.
