‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’ Parody Teaser Features Arrowverse Characters

Zack Snyder’s Justice League trailer couldn’t have come at a better time. With the movie’s release scheduled on March 18, it helped fuel fans’ anticipation. 

Before the official trailer dropped, HBO Max gave us a peek first in the form of a teaser. Which, in my opinion, is a cinematic feat. The visuals, the soundtrack…oof!

And it seems that imitation truly is the highest form of flattery, or so it can be deduced from a fan-made parody of it which has caught many fans’ eyes.

The fan-made teaser features the Arrowverse characters and refashions them with the Snyder Cut touch. Using clips from the CW shows, the parody features characters from the DCTV universe. Titled “Greg Berlanti’s Justice League”, it pokes fun at the Snyder Cut teaser. 

The parody, edited in a similar fashion to the actual teaser, uses dark, moody tones and the same background music from the Justice League trailer, Leonard Cohen’s “Hallelujah”. Not REEL Productions, who created the video, were clever enough to use the most riveting footage from the shows—featuring clips from The Flash, Supergirl, as well as a very sneaky addition from the upcoming The Batman.

The Arrowverse, as called by fans, is the collection of the TV adaptations of DC comics by Greg Berlanti, the executive producer. After its first successful run with Arrow, the studio produced many spin-offs, including Legends of Tomorrow, Batwoman, and Flash vs. Arrow, among others.

And following 2017’s Justice League, the Arrowverse, too, saw a multiverse crossover with 2019’s “Crisis on Infinite Earths”. 

On the other hand, Zack Snyder helmed the DC Extended Universe. However, due to a personal tragedy, he stepped down from finishing Justice League, which Joss Whedon took up. It was only after numerous fan demands that WB finally announced that the Snyder Cut would be released in 2021.

As we approach closer to the release, “Berlanti’s Cut” helps elicit a few smirks, and is essentially amusing. But, it also hammers in the fact that the DCEU and DCTV universes are best kept separate.
