Zack Snyder, the mastermind behind the SnyderVerse and films like 300, Watchmen, Man of Steel, Batman V Superman: Dawn Of Justice, and Zack Snyder’s Justice League, has recently opened up about the risks associated with modern television. Speaking to Anthony and Joe Russo on their Pizza Film School podcast (via The Playlist), they all raved about HBO’s Euphoria and Netflix’s Squid Game. During the conversion, Snyder acknowledged that TV shows have become more daring, citing the boundary-pushing series Euphoria as an example. This candid admission has prompted speculation about whether the director might be considering a foray into the world of television himself.
During their conversation, Snyder and the Russo brothers discussed the creative freedom that comes with working on television projects. Here’s what Snyder had to say on the matter:
I think we’re in a real golden age of TV in the sense that TV shows are much better at showing you something that you’ve never seen before, or catching you off balance or making a turn that you didn’t see coming. They’re way riskier.
He continued:
Euphoria, for instance, I was just watching the show [and] it’s just unbelievable. That show shouldn’t exist; it’s so good. And that’s the kind of thing… I watch that show and go, ‘This movie would never get made; this movie can’t exist.’

While Snyder has yet to announce any plans to create a TV series, his admiration for the medium is clear. Given his penchant for taking risks and pushing boundaries, it’s not hard to imagine him embracing the challenge of crafting his own TV show. Netflix, the streaming giant responsible for releasing Snyder’s zombie flick Army of the Dead, could provide the perfect platform for such a venture. The streaming service is known for its support of visionary filmmakers and has already provided a home for Snyder’s work in the past. A partnership between Snyder and Netflix could result in a television series that combines the director’s unique vision with the creative freedom afforded by the streaming platform.
The prospect of a TV show set within the SnyderVerse is sure to excite the legions of Snyder fandom, who have been clamouring for more content from the director since the release of his director’s cut of Justice League. Whether it’s a gritty drama or a superhero epic, the idea of a Zack Snyder television series has the potential to capture the imagination of viewers and take the small screen by storm.
