Snyder Mocks Whedon’s Superman Saying “Do You Bleed” In Justice League

Zack Snyder mocks Joss Whedon making Superman ask Batman "Do you bleed?" in his version of Justice League. Snyder helped kick off the DCEU with Man of Steel in 2013, and fans were eager to see him bring the Justice League to the big screen four years later. However, a family tragedy forced Snyder to step away from Justice League in the middle of production, and Warner Bros. (not Snyder) selected Whedon to come in and complete the film. Whedon was quick to change much of Snyder's original plans, which displeased fans and led to them campaigning for the release of Snyder's cut.

After several years of hashtags, billboards, and fundraising efforts, the #ReleasetheSnyderCut movement paid off a few months ago with the news that the Justice League Snyder Cut will be released on HBO Max next year. Snyder is currently working on completing his cut, and the first teaser will arrive this Saturday at DC FanDome. It's already abundantly clear that Snyder's version of Justice League differs greatly from Whedon's, and apparently that even extends to some of the smaller details of the film.

As noted by Charlie on social mediaa fan asked Snyder on Vero if Superman asks Batman if he bleeds in his cut. In the theatrical version of Justice League, a resurrected Superman confronts his onetime enemy/ally with a callback to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice by uttering the line "Do you bleed?" while gripping Batman's face. The line received mixed reactions from fans, and evidently Snyder wasn't a fan of it himself. "uh no that literally makes no sense," Snyder replied to the fan's question, simultaneously shutting down the idea and mocking Whedon's decision.

While one could argue the line was a fitting reference to Batman v Superman and an example of Superman mocking Batman, Snyder has a point in saying it doesn't make sense. After all, Superman knows full well Batman can bleed since he's a regular human. It's a line that doesn't have any narrative sense beyond acting as a callback for fans to appreciate. Nevertheless, the line won't be included in Snyder's Justice League, so fans who dislike it won't have to worry.

Whedon has become an unpopular figure among Justice League fans, especially since actor Ray Fisher came forward with allegations of Whedon's abusive and unprofessional onset behavior. Snyder's Justice League represents a fresh slate in many cases, especially in the case of Snyder himself. It's clear he was very dissatisfied with how the theatrical version of Justice League came out, but now he finally has the chance to complete the movie as he always wanted to. When it comes to the Snyder Cut, fans won't have to deal with any of Whedon's questionable decisions.
