In an interview with Beyond the Trailer, Snyder addressed these questions, confirming that his films exists outside the current DCEU continuity in the "Snyderverse," which includes 2013's Man of Steel, 2016's Batman v Superman and Zack Snyder's Justice League.
"It's kind of separate now from what I would say the DC cinematic universe [is] in continuity," he said. "I think it's divergent, in that way. And I think that's a good thing." The director went on to praise DC and the emphasis its puts on "individual voices" for its films.
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.
