Director Zack Snyder continues to toy with fans’ nerves by posting various teasers of a mystery event set to take place in late April. Will Henry Cavill be there?
On March 15, Zack Snyder posted a cryptic 14-second video on his Twitter account. It featured the voice of actor Ray Porter, who vocally played supervillain Darkseid in Zack Snyder’s Justice League.
The latter indicated a date: April 28-30, telling us in passing to reserve this moment. With this very mysterious tweet, Zack Snyder blew up Twitter and social networks, which are racing to find out what may be hiding behind this announcement.
What does the filmmaker have in store for us at the end of April? We were doing some speculation the day after this strange speech. Does Snyder announce a return to the DC Universe?
Does he intend to finish his work by recalling Henry Cavill for a last stand in Superman vs Darkseid? Is this just a teaser for a SnyderCon convention, as suggested by the date which involves 3 days?
For the moment, the director does not say anything really concrete, contenting himself with posting various photos accompanied by enigmatic messages. For example, on his Vero account, he posted a snapshot of Henry Cavill as Superman. Superimposed, it reads: MOS, BVS, ZSJL, the initials of Man of Steel, Batman v Superman and Zack Snyder’s Justice League.
