In recent years, DCU had many ups and down with its franchise lacking a stronghold, or a consistent direction. With its fan base split, the Black Adam controversy proves it worse.

Dwayne Johnson‘s recent Instagram post shares his surprise at his daughters discovering them and surprising them with guinea pigs. The Baywatch actor tweeted

“GUINEA PIGS!!! Hope all of you out there and your families had a wonderful Christmas!! This year I started a new tradition where I would wake up at 5am (regardless of what time I went to sleep – which was 1am) shower, get dressed and be downstairs waiting for the little tornados to wake up and come down and wreak complete havoc & chaos. Man as a daddy I live for these moments of joy & Christmas imagination,” Johnson continued. “Hey Santa thanks big man for all the cool stuff you left for my little ones. Hope you enjoyed the tequila I left ya. Love, Dwanta”

The recent DCU film Black Adam, starring Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as a villain turned hero caused a controversy. Warner Bros has removed footage of Joss Whedon’s Justice League from the Black Adam trailer. The scene was undoubtedly one of the most hyped scenes.

The shot was of Steppenwolf swinging his weapon into the ground, with Darkseid being the one to do so in Snyder’s cut. They remade the scene and the updated version totally removes the shot rather than replacing it with Zack Snyder‘s Justice League.

The DCEU has Joss Whedon’s Justice League as its current canon. The film’s failure and the Snyder Cut’s success prove that there are not many fans that would prefer Whedon’s version. They are never going to make Zack Snyder’s Justice League canon as there are some valid reasons. Though Snyder’s Cut was better than Whedon’s, Snyder’s vision has already failed DC with Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
