Zack Snyder has decided to step away from directing duties on Justice League following a family tragedy, prompting Warner Bros. to hand the reins over to Joss Whedon.
For now, Snyder will be allowed to take as much time as needed as he deals with this heartbreaking event.
Despite the fact that filming wrapped months ago and the editing process is underway — ahead of the upcoming reshoots — Snyder has decided to step away.
THR revealed the news that Snyder has stepped down from Justice League to deal with the loss of his daughter.
