Justice League producers Geoff Johns and Jon Berg will reportedly have their producer credits removed from the Zack Snyder cut of the film slated to arrive on HBO Max in 2021.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, Johns and Berg will not receive producer credits on the Snyder Cut, which is currently undergoing reshoots that involve Ben Affleck, Ray Fisher, Amber Heard and possibly others. The site goes on to state that sources close to Berg and Johns have confirmed their intentions to remove their names from the Snyder Cut since they are not working on the project, and are no longer Warner Bros. studio executives.
Jared Leto is also reportedly returning to the DC Extended Universe to reprise his Suicide Squad role as the Joker for Zack Snyder's Justice League.
Cyborg actor Ray Fisher alleged in July that director Joss Whedon's on-set treatment of the Justice League cast and crew was "gross, abusive, unprofessional, and completely unacceptable. He then called out Johns and Berg, stating the duo enabled Whedon's alleged mistreatment of the film's stars.
After years of public outcry on social media, Warner Bros. officially announced that director Zack Snyder's cut of Justice League would finally debut on HBO Max. Many of Fisher's scenes as Victor Stone/Cyborg were reportedly cut from the theatrical version of Justice League, with Snyder sharing many of them on social media.
In Justice League, fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy.

But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Justice League stars Ben Affleck as Batman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Ezra Miller as The Flash, Ray Fisher as Cyborg, Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth, Diane Lane as Martha Kent, Ciarán Hinds as Steppenwolf, Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor and J.K.
