How to Watch Zack Snyder’s "Justice League" Cut in Australia

It is finally being released.

Almost 10 months ago, we received the news that after years of campaigning, Zack Snyder’s Justice League cut was on the way. Except, Warner Bros. still didn’t give us a release date.

If you somehow missed this one, Snyder—the director of Batman v Superman—unfortunately had to leave production of Justice League in 2017, following the tragic death of his daughter, Autumn.

Despite leaving the production, he had previously put together a four-hour edit for the film, but he hadn't completed the post-production process.

As we know, Joss Whedon took over the Justice League project and cut the film down to a slightly more palatable two hours. Unfortunately, the film ended up doing pretty poorly at the box office and also forced the non-Wonder Woman ­elements of the DC Extended Universe (DCEU) to be put on pause.

Ultimately, this caused Ben Affleck to yeet himself from the role of Batman, which was soon replaced by Robert Pattinson, and Justice League copped the blame for the DCEU's fall.

Considering the actual movie was such a let-down, fans were understandably looking for more. Soon, rumours started to spread that Snyder had finished his own version of Justice League, and that’s how the #ReleasetheSnyderCut hashtag was born.

When Synder confirmed the news of the cut in May, it was announced that the film would be available on HBO Max, leaving Aussie fans out in the dark at the time.

All we have known for a while is that the film is coming and that it will be a little more, uh, mature, with an R rating on the cards.

Okay, so how can I watch it?

After years of hashtags, Australians will finally get to feast their eyes on the #SnyderCut on BINGE.

Premiering on 18 March 2021 at 6pm AEDT, Snyder’s Justice League follows Bruce Wayne (Affleck) as he aligns forces with Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) with plans to recruit a team of metahumans, determined to make sure Superman’s (Henry Cavill) sacrifice was not in vain.

To protect the world from the difficult and ever-growing threat of Steppenwolf (Ciarán Hinds), DeSaad (Peter Guinness) and Darkseid (Ray Porter), Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman (Jason Momoa), Cyborg (Ray Fisher) and The Flash (Ezra Miller), join forces.

Unfortunately, they must each face demons from their own pasts to break down what has held them back and ultimately allow themselves to come together to finally form an unlikely league of heroes.

So, the wait is almost over, and if you’re a BINGE subscriber, you can stream it from 18 March. (Affiliate disclosure: Student Edge may earn a commission if you click that link and buy a product from our partner's page.)

"Australia, mark your calendars and get ready because BINGE is bringing you this special film event," BINGE Executive Director, Alison Hurbert-Burns said 

"DC’s incredibly passionate fanbase broke the internet and have been lobbying to watch Snyder’s cut for many years and the wait is nearly over.

"BINGE is committed to bringing the world’s best entertainment to Australians. And now, not only will Aussie fans get to stream Zack Snyder’s Justice League, they’ll do so at the same time as the global premiere, which is a fantastic outcome."

We're keeping our fingers crossed that Snyder’s version does better than the original.

Now, thanks to the trailer, the Joker (Jared Leto) has confirmed that "we live in a society."

*Slow clap*.
