‘Justice League’ cinematographer confirms black suit Superman footage exists

News to anger Justice Leaguefans this morning. Cinematographer Fabian Wagner has confirmed in an interview with Inverse.com (via Comic Book Movie) that scenes were shot with Henry Cavill in the black Superman suit seen in the comics:

“There were [quite a few scenes shot]. It’s a cool looking costume. Sadly we didn’t see that either in the final cut. Zack takes his time with telling the stories and I’ve always liked that about his movies. There are a few scenes that I was very much looking forward to seeing which unfortunately got cut.”

If rumours are to be believed Warner Bros. are considering an extended cut release on home video featuring more of the scenes cut from the theatrical version. Will we get to see black suit Superman in action?

But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes – Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash – it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
