Zack Snyder, the director of Justice League, has hinted at a "full circle" Darkseid announcement coming next month.

The director released a brief video clip of a "incoming transmission from Lord Darkseid" that will arrive between April 28 and 30.

On March 15, 2023, he sahred the video in an incredibly cryptic tweet.

However, with so little information to go on, determining what this means is extremely difficult.

Given that James Gunn recently revealed their Chapter 1 plans, it's possible that it won't be a movie.

Darkseid was the main villain in Batman v Superman, but the other characters can be found in the current DCEU.

The phrase "full circle" alludes to a return to the beginning of the DCEU.

Having said that, DC Studios' new owners appear adamant about moving on from these films, with the FLASH film appearing to be a reboot of the universe.

It remains to be seen whether Snyder has a place in the new DC Universe.

However, according to DC Comics creative officer Kim Lee, Justice League: The Snyder Cut will most likely be the director's final film.
