When it comes to the recently released Justice League, there seem to be two enduring talking points in regard to the landmark team-up movie that had one of the most storied productions of late: Superman’s fabled black costume and the elusive Zack Snyder cut. And while it remains a mystery if we’ll ever lay our eyes on the former, we do know that we’ll be treated to some additional scenes featuring the Man of Steel when the flick arrives on home video in the very near future.
Now, it’s going to be a matter of weeks before we learn all the details, but there had to be a bit of disappointment going around when word on the street was that the scrapped content clocks in at only two minutes. Really, with the amount of spare footage we know to be lying around, we may one day see something rivaling Superman II: The Richard Donner Cut, but I digress.
Thanks to iTunes previewing the upcoming February 13 digital release for its customers (seen below), we can now confirm that “The Return of Superman” runs a mere 2 minutes, 1 second. That’s right, Big Blue probably didn’t waste too much time before suiting up and joining the fight against Steppenwolf in the third act.
