    Zack Snyder is stepping away from the Justice League movie in the wake of a family tragedy. Borys Kit, writing for The Hollywood Reporter:


    Snyder tells The Hollywood Reporter he is stepping away from Justice League, Warner Bros.’ all-star DC Comics superhero mega-movie that is in postproduction, in order to deal with the sudden death of his daughter. Snyder’s wife, Deborah Snyder, who is a producer on Justice League, also is taking a break to focus on the healing of their family.

    Hope all the best for him and his family. With it being in postproduction I can't see this having an insane impact on how the movie turns out negatively.

    Absolutely terrible for his family to go through that. Glad he's taking time off to heal.

    That loneliness is not a function of solitude.

    I can relate on some level. My dad died a few months ago from esophageal cancer and I still have a hard time giving a shit about anything at work (or in general). I imagine losing a daughter in this way is an entirely different kind of struggle that I'll hopefully never understand but on a base level, I get it. I wish his family the best in coping with this. Glad that he realized he needed to take a step back to grieve and heal.
