Birth.Movies.Death. also report that Snyder is filming the underwater scenes in Justice League much differently to how he did for Batman v Superman (opens in new tab). While the latter film had Aquaman actor Jason Momoa hold his breath in a water tank in his underwhelming cameo, Snyder has chosen to film Momoa on a “green screen stage” for Justice League. In fact, the report notes that “a majority of the movie will be shot on sets and Snyder will utilize background replacement”. 

I have little doubt that Justice League will be visually impressive – that’s always been Snyder’s forte – but after Batman v Superman I’m much less confident on whether or not the big team-up movie will have a compelling narrative. In any case I’m sure Snyder will put the fancy rigging to good use, and having an actor of Dafoe’s calibre on your set almost always makes the final film a little bit better.

Directed by Zack Snyder and starring Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Mamoa, Ezra Miller, and Ray Fisher, Justice League: Part 1 is currently scheduled for a November 17, 2017 release.
