'Justice League' Not Three Hours Long; Extended Trailer Previewed at CinemaCon
Arguably one of the most anticipated films of this year, "Justice League" is not scheduled to premiere until November. However, rumors have recently been circulating that the film is almost three hours long.
There has been talk of "Justice League" being 20 minutes longer than "Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice," which ran for 151 minutes. It did not help that IMDb listed the film with a run time of 170 minutes. The rumor quickly gained momentum, and soon, everyone on the internet was talking about it.
However, according to TheWrap, there is apparently no truth to the rumor. An insider told the publication that "Justice League" will not be 170 minutes long, but it is impossible to give an exact number at this time because post-production work has yet to be completed.
The excitement for the upcoming superhero flick, which will see some of the most popular superheroes joining forces, is building with each passing week. Recently, fans at CinemaCon were treated to an extended trailer. Those who were unable to make it to the event, though, will have to wait until it gets released as it has yet to be made available online.
Not too long ago, Warner Bros. released the first official trailer of "Justice League," which saw all of the members--except for Henry Cavill's Superman--coming together as The Beatles' "Come Together" literally played in the background.
The trailer was packed with a ton of action that is sure to keep viewers on the edge of their seats. It also took on a lighter tone, with the film even poking fun at Batman's lack of powers. When Ezra Miller's Flash asks him what his super powers are, Ben Affleck's Batman responds with a blunt "I'm rich."
And while Superman was left out of the trailer--something that has been consistent with other promotional materials--fans are still excited to see him interact with the other members of the Justice League.
"Justice League" will premiere in U.S. theaters on Nov. 17.
