In one of the most surprising moves of the year, director Zack Snyder announced last month that he was departing from the upcoming Justice League project due to a tragic event in his family. The director decided to reveal his reasons for stepping down, because he knew that the internet would explode otherwise.

However, after talks with Joss Whedon, the Avengers director agreed to film the already-scheduled reshoots for Justice League. According to both of them, the reshoots were minor and wouldn’t introduce new characters or explore major events from the film.

But now, Batman on Film reports that the reshoots, which will take place throughout June, July, and possibly August, are actually quite significant. Furthermore, according to the same website, the entire gang is already in London to begin filming.

The website remains optimistic, however, since a first cut has already been screened and it was liked by the audiences. Nonetheless, such an extensive reshoot (or additional photography, as Batman on Film calls it) will certainly change the movie entirely.

Henry Cavill is already on the set. Yesterday, the Man of Steel actor’s Instagram account featured a pic of him, all suited up and celebrating Superman's seventy-ninth anniversary. Check it out below!

Hi Everyone! I’ve been doing some Super Ruminations because this month is the 79th anniversary of Superman in Action Comics and thought it fitting to pass on this little fact. Who knew, eh?? In January 1933, Jerry Siegel wrote a short story titled “The Reign of the Superman”, which was illustrated by his friend Joe Shuster and self-published in a science fiction magazine. It told the story of a bald villain with telepathic powers. Trying to create a character they could sell to newspaper syndicates, Siegel re-conceived the “superman” character as a powerful hero, sent to our world from a more advanced society. He and Shuster developed the idea into a comic strip, which they pitched unsuccessfully. National Publications was looking for a hit to accompany their success with Detective Comics, and did not have time to solicit new material. Because of the tight deadline, editor Vin Sullivan was forced to make it out of inventory and stockpile pages. Sullivan asked former coworker Sheldon Mayer if he could help. Mayer found the rejected Superman comic strips, and Sullivan told Siegel and Shuster that if they could paste them into 13 comic book pages, he would buy them. #SuperRuminations #Superman #ActionComics
