Zack Snyder has spent the last decade and change living primarily in the large-scale realm of franchise sci-fi and superheroes, from the first DCEU film Man of Steel in 2013 to the second half of his two-part space opera Rebel Moon in 2024.

With James Gunn now at the helm of DC's cinematic universe and the future of his Star Wars rival looking bleak at Netflix, he's preparing to enter a new phase in his cinematic career.

Now, the franchise is going considerably bigger — and, as part of Collider's Fall Exclusive Preview, we can reveal a brand-new look at the sequel.

Thriller novels have come and gone over the years, but the common thread that binds them together is their ability to keep readers on the edge of their seats.

Jeffrey Harris — Sun, 30 Aug 2026 19:41:11 GMT

Over a decade ago, the USA Network made a terrible mistake with one of its best spy thriller shows.
