March 18th is a big day for Zack Snyder fans, with the long-awaited Snyder Cut of Justice League set to premiere on HBO Max and around the world. However, that’s not all as a remastered 4K edition of the extended ‘Ultimate Edition’ version of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is also set to land on streaming that same day before hitting 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray the following week.
Snyder confirmed back in December that he was working on remastering the 2016 DC blockbuster, fixing some colouring issues, as well as restoring the original IMAX aspect ratio. Check out the trailer here…
