Zack Snyder's Justice League actor Ray Porter, who stars as Darkseid in the film, reveals that he wants to see more of the Snyderverse films in the future of DCEU.

In an interview with Geek House Show, Porter was asked if there were more Snyder films on the horizon and Porter responded, "There's always hope,"

"I don't know anything about it, and I think a lot of moving parts would have to shift into place for it to occur, but that's way above my pay grade." Porter suggested Snyder's fervent fans could make an extended Snyderverse a reality. "I do know that this fandom -- if they desire something enough -- can move mountains," he said. "I believe in the fans, and I have hope." the actor added.

Porter also praised DC fans for their enthusiasm over the film and for protesting for the Snyder's Cut of the 2017's Justice League.

"Fans felt restless -- they felt like there was more to be told, and they started to get noisy, in a good way ... And in spite of being told it didn't exist, they remained steadfast and kept the energy up, kept hope alive, and lo and behold, we have it now." He described how, when leaks revealed his cut role from the film, fans flocked to his Twitter account to welcome him to the DCEU community. "Nobody was ever like, 'Um, who are you?' ... I got welcomed into this amazing community of fans."

2017's Justice League faced a disheartening response from critics and fans after its release. Rumors then began to swirl that Snyder's cut was different and longer than Joss Whedon's final cut, instantly causing the fans to demand the Snyder's cut of the Justice League to be released. After months of online protest, fans finally succeeded when HBO Max confirmed that they will be releasing the long-awaited Justice League Snyder's Cut in the streaming service. While it still received mixed reviews, fans argued that Snyder's cut was better than 2017's Justice League.

Justice League's Snyder's Cut is still streaming in HBO Max.
