Justice League is due for release this November and the film's post production stage is going on. All bets are placed on the movie since Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Suicide Squad disappointed fans. With only few months left, new reports are suggesting that the DC movie is being reshot majorly.
This raised a number of questions: do director Zack Snyder and Warner Bros doubt their project? Are they afraid that the movie will disappoint fans and want to change it? The news created frenzy on the internet. But thankfully, before the fire burnt things down, Warner Bros stepped in and clarified the rumoured reports making the rounds.

The studio's source debunked the news report stating there is no drastic reshoot taking place. The final filmed project is being edited and it is being polished for the release.
"There has been no additional photography to date on 'Justice League,' we have planned and will shoot additional pickups early summer. Additional photography has always been planned like most pictures in general but certainly for a tentpole of 'Justice League's' size and scope," the source confirmed.
As the report explains, big budget movies undergo some pickup reshoots to make the final product look complete. But given that Suicide Squad had numerous flaws, the news does put fans in a worry.
This week, the League movie has been under the bad radar following Man of Steel actress, Diane Lane who plays Martha's role and took the Avengers side as against Justice League. When she was asked if Justice League Movie could throw Avengers out of the water, the actress's refusal led to a backlash and she immediately issued a clarification.
It is obvious that the studios involved cannot afford any more bad publicity, which is why they jumped at the first gun of rumours.
Justice League features Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot and Jason Momoa reprising their roles as Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and Aquaman respectively. The film releases on November 17, shortly after Wonder Woman hits theatres on June 2.
