It will explore the concept of the multiverse, which is how Batman actors such as Michael Keaton and Ben Affleck (both of whom are in the movie) can exist in their own continuities separate from that of Robert Pattinson's upcoming take in The Batman.

HBO Max Zack Snyder Justice League teaser trailer
It’s worth noting that there’s not a single moment of footage in the trailer that was in the theatrical release, and Snyder is making a point to show that this is a different film. One of the big takeaways from the trailer is the prominent presence of people of color, whose roles were largely reduced or eliminated in the theatrical film. We see Cyborg’s parents, Elinore (Karen Bryson) and Silas Stone (Joe Morton), and Iris West (Kiersey Clemons), who all help create this feeling of a larger, lived-in world that’s just as interested in people as it is heroes. Snyder has said numerous times that Cyborg is the heart of the film, and the trailer shows a lot more of the character, including his inability to save his father, creating a nice parallel to Clark Kent’s own inability to save Jonathan (Kevin Costner) in Man of Steel.

Today at DC Fandome, Zack Snyder confirmed what had been leaking out there: His new cut of Justice League will be available in four separate one-hour installments on HBO Max. “We’ll find a way of bundling it all together at the end,” said the filmmaker, who also promised overseas fans, who don’t have the streaming service in their country “we’ll find a way for you to see it.”
