Former Netflix Exec Scott Stuber Wanted to Restore the SnyderVerse—But What Happened?

🔥 Former Netflix Exec Scott Stuber Wanted to Restore the SnyderVerse—But What Happened? 👀💯

The battle for the rages on, and it turns out former Netflix executive Scott Stuber was once at the center of it. 🎬💥

According to multiple sources who spoke to TheWrap, Stuber seriously considered bringing back Zack Snyder’s DCEU vision—an idea that could have changed everything for Snyder fans. But instead of getting a full-fledged SnyderVerse restoration, what we got was Stuber leaving Netflix altogether. 🤯

What happened? Why did Stuber push for this? And could the SnyderVerse still return? Let’s break it down. 👇

💥 Stuber vs. Netflix: The Fight for Theatrical Films & the SnyderVerse

Scott Stuber, Netflix’s former head of film, was known for trying to push the streaming giant in a more traditional Hollywood direction. And part of that included:

✅ Bigger theatrical releases for Netflix films
✅ Investing in major blockbuster franchises
✅ Restoring Zack Snyder’s full creative vision

But according to insiders, Netflix constantly shot down Stuber’s efforts to expand into theatrical play. 🚫🎥

“Stuber wanted more theatrical plays but constantly ran into walls.”

That frustration ultimately led him to walk away from Netflix, but before that, he apparently explored the idea of bringing Snyder’s Justice League universe back to life.

⚡ Could Netflix Have Been the SnyderVerse’s New Home?

Ever since Zack Snyder left Warner Bros., Netflix has been his new creative playground. With the success of Army of the Dead and Rebel Moon, many fans speculated that Netflix might be the company to revive the SnyderVerse.

Stuber allegedly entertained that possibility—which makes sense given that:

🔥 Netflix already has a strong partnership with Zack Snyder
🔥 The Snyder Cut of Justice League proved there’s a demand for his version of DC
🔥 The streaming platform could have built a massive Snyder-led DC Elseworlds

Had Stuber been given the green light, Netflix might have created something truly historic for DC fans. Instead, he was blocked at every turn.

🚪 Stuber’s Exit: A Missed Opportunity for the SnyderVerse?

Now that Stuber is out of Netflix, the future of any potential SnyderVerse revival at the streaming giant is uncertain.

❌ No more big theatrical plays for Netflix’s blockbusters
❌ No internal champion pushing for Zack Snyder’s DC comeback
❌ No guarantee that Netflix will invest in future Snyder-led superhero films

Had Stuber stayed (and won his battle), we might have already seen a deal for Netflix-backed Justice League sequels, a Ben Affleck Batman film, or even a Henry Cavill-led Superman return. 😭💔

🧐 So, Can the SnyderVerse Still Be Saved?

With Stuber gone, Netflix no longer looks like the best option for restoring the SnyderVerse. But that doesn’t mean it’s over.

🔹 DC Elseworlds is happening (The Batman and Joker prove it’s possible!)
🔹 James Gunn has left the door open for SnyderVerse characters
🔹 Fans are still rallying for it, making it one of the most requested DC projects ever

If Zack Snyder himself finds a new home for his vision, or if Warner Bros. Discovery sees the financial potential, the SnyderVerse could still rise again. 💪🔥

🤔 What’s Next? Could Stuber’s Departure Lead to Something Bigger?

With Stuber out, some fans think this could actually be a blessing in disguise.

💥 If he joins another major studio (like Amazon or Apple), could he push for a SnyderVerse revival there?
💥 Could his departure force Netflix to reconsider its approach to big-budget franchise filmmaking?
💥 Will Zack Snyder himself address these reports and hint at what could have been?

One thing is certain—the SnyderVerse refuses to die. And if history has taught us anything, it’s that fan demand can move mountains (#ReleaseTheSnyderCut, anyone? 😉).
