In the world of superheroes and cinematic universes, passionate debates and discussions often arise surrounding the fate of iconic characters and their stories. Recently, with acclaimed director James Gunn unveiling his plans to reboot the DCU, fans have been left feeling a little confused. While the director already broke hearts by recasting Henry Cavill‘s Superman, he recently went on a spree of removing actors who were a part of Zack Snyder’s Justice League. This did nothing but infuriate fans further.

While the world was getting ready to accept the changes coming their way, Snyder fans were torn. In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter) a debate broke out. It was on whether there should be a sequel to the 2021 blockbuster. Although it seems close to impossible for there to be a sequel after most of the original actors have been removed, fans are hoping that Gunn could add the sequel to his list of projects.

So far, most of the DC actors are not set to reprise their roles. From Gal Gadot to Jason Mamoa, there are said to be big changes coming up. Although it seems fans have still not moved on from the Henry Cavill snub.
