Can you watch Zack Snyder’s Justice League without HBO Max?

The highly anticipated Zack Snyder’s Justice League is now streaming on HBO Max, but is the streaming service the only way to watch Snyder’s version of the movie or can it be streamed somewhere else?

It’s been over three years since Justice League premiered in theaters, or, at least, the theatrical cut. The superhero-packed movie was received with mixed reviews. At Rotten Tomatoes, it has maintained a very divided response, sitting at 40% Rotten.

The audience score, however, is more favorable at 71%. Still, it’s safe to say this is not what Warner Bros. was hoping for.

There were many issues happening behind the scenes. And Justice League was finished without Snyder. Now, thanks to a deal with HBO Max, director Snyder was able to finish his vision and give the movie the look and feel he was initially going for.

The result? A four-hour movie with added visual effects and extra footage. Needless to say, fans are excited to spend this weekend watching the movie.

How to watch Zack Snyder’s Justice League

The movie is streaming now on HBO Max as of March 18 at 3:01 a.m. ET. Is it playing in select theaters? No. At this time, the Zack Snyder cut will remain an HBO Max exclusive.

Unfortunately, this means you can only watch the movie on HBO Max. Most locations outside of the US can also stream on HBO Max, others will have to watch via HBO Go, HBO linear, or another paid service.

On the bright side, the movie is considered an HBO Max original so you don’t have to rush to watch as it will stay in the streaming service.

If you have never had HBO Max, you can always subscribe and enjoy a free trial. This way, you can watch the movie for free as well as check out what else the streaming service has to offer.
