Henry Lennix recently confirmed that the famed “Snyder Cut” of the movie Justice League will feature scenes with Martian Manhunter, also known as J’onn J’onzz.

After lots of fan speculation, Snyder revealed that General Calvin Swanwick was, in fact, Martian Manhunter in disguise. Recent comments by Lennix have also confirmed that J’onn J’onzz will have an appearance in Zack Snyder’s Justice League. While Lennix hasn’t revealed much about his part in the film, he did comment about his excitement telling Collider he felt “like a kid at a candy store” and that “It’s going to be great to be up there with Batman and Superman.”  He also commented on how he hoped he would have opportunities to further explore this role.

Snyder did, however, show a sneak peek of what Martian Manhunter may look like in the film in a Zoom call in November.

Until Snyder’s reveal, fans were theorizing that Lennix’s character could be Martian Manhunter, pointing out similarities to the role in CW’s Supergirl where he was in disguise as the head of the D.E.O. While there are similarities between the two, it will be interesting to see how Snyder will play with the role in his own version of the character in Justice League.

While this will be the first live action film appearance of Martian Manhunter, the character has a rich history in DC Comics as a founding member of the Justice League. Martian Manhunter is a shapeshifting alien from Mars and the last of the Green Martians, who were wiped out by White Martians. He has also made appearances in several DC animated films, as well as DC live action shows like Supergirl. 

This news adds to the growing excitement for the famed Snyder Cut of Justice League, which is set for release on HBO Max in March of this year.
