The fan-favorite filmmaker just launched his account in October and, since then, he\u2019s been racking up followers. Most of Snyder\u2019s posts are filled with behind-the-scenes stills from his various films, including those that are part of the DC Extended Universe. <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/tag\/henry-cavill\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/tag\/henry-cavill\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Henry Cavill<\/a>\u2019s Superman has appeared in a few, and Snyder just dropped another Supes pic as he marked a social media milestone.<\/p>\n<p>This weekend, Zack Snyder returned to Instagram to commemorate the fact that he hit over 400,000 followers. Considering he only joined the platform last month, that\u2019s a very impressive feat. It makes sense that he\u2019d want to celebrate that accomplishment, and I\u2019m digging the fact that he used a pic of the DCEU\u2019s Last Son of Krypton to do it. Check out the black-and-white photo below, which shows Henry Cavill \u2013 in costume &#8211; at the center of a set:<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-seasonal\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"e2536cf7-18c5-47e1-903a-c2bdc6549294-0\">When it comes to this photo, the 300 helmer \u2013 who apparently shot this on his iPhone \u2013 didn\u2019t specify which of his DCU movies it was taken from. My guess would be that this is either from the set of Man of Steel or Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice, though. What I appreciate is that Snyder\u2019s stream of posts seem to convey just how much he still relishes his time making his superhero movies. These tidbits also serve as cool tidbits that pull back the curtain on his gigantic blockbusters.<\/p>\n<p>You may like<\/p>\n<p>It also seems Zack Snyder has a particular fondness for the Big Blue Boy Scout, particularly Henry Cavill\u2019s iteration of the hero. As a matter of fact, upon joining IG, Snyder immediately made it <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/superman\/zack-snyder-joined-instagram-said-henry-cavill-superman\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/superman\/zack-snyder-joined-instagram-said-henry-cavill-superman\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">clear that Cavill was Superman<\/a> in his eyes. Opinions on that front vary, especially given David Corenswet\u2019s winning performance as Kal-El in the DCU. However, it\u2019s hard not to love the fact that Snyder is still such an ardent proponent of Cavill\u2019s Supes and is dropping <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/superman\/zack-snyder-shared-henry-cavill-natural-setting-superman-pic-fans-pumped\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/superman\/zack-snyder-shared-henry-cavill-natural-setting-superman-pic-fans-pumped\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">photos of him in his \u201cnatural setting.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Kal-El isn\u2019t the only DCEU character who\u2019s been showcased on Snyder\u2019s Instagram account as of late. The director also recently shared one of his <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/zack-snyder-shared-favorite-batman-photo-ben-affleck-sadfleck-vibes\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/zack-snyder-shared-favorite-batman-photo-ben-affleck-sadfleck-vibes\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">favorite photos of Ben Affleck\u2019s Batman<\/a>, and the snapshot gives all sorts of \u201cSadfleck\u201d vibes. Additionally, Snyder posted a <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/zack-snyder-shared-new-photo-jared-leto-joker-comments-say-same-thing\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/zack-snyder-shared-new-photo-jared-leto-joker-comments-say-same-thing\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">photo of Jared Leto\u2019s Joker<\/a>, with various fans subsequently commenting that they\u2019d love to see more of that version of the Clown Prince of Crime.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"elk-81c96882-73f1-4dd1-b98c-8747fcfcfe77\" data-url=\"\" href=\"\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-hl-processed=\"none\"\/><\/p>\n<p id=\"43088703-46f7-443c-8b08-383a973433f5\">Zack Snyder\u2019s posts seemingly have fans feeling nostalgic for the DCEU continuity, which formally concluded with 2023\u2019s <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/tag\/aquaman\" data-auto-tag-linker=\"true\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/tag\/aquaman\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Aquaman<\/a> and the Lost Kingdom. Since then, many have been rallying for the fictional universe to be revived and built upon in some form or fashion. At present, the chances of that happening seem slim, considering Warner Bros. and the newly established DC Studios are moving along with <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/gods-and-monsters-everything-we-know-about-the-new-dcu-chapter-1\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/superheroes\/gods-and-monsters-everything-we-know-about-the-new-dcu-chapter-1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">DCU Chapter 1: Gods and Monsters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Still, the DCEU films still exist as they are and fans can still discuss and appreciate them as they so choose. As for Snyder, I wouldn\u2019t be surprised if he continues to drop behind-the-scenes photos from those superhero movies. If that is indeed the case, I could also see his follower count on Instagram only increasing with time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"newsletter-form__strapline\">Your Daily Blend of Entertainment News<\/p>\n<p>Those who\u2019d like to check out the DCEU films can watch them now using an <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/television\/2570432\/subscribing-to-hbo-max-what-to-know-about-the-price-options-and-what-the-streaming-service-offers\" data-mrf-recirculation=\"inline-link\" data-before-rewrite-localise=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/television\/2570432\/subscribing-to-hbo-max-what-to-know-about-the-price-options-and-what-the-streaming-service-offers\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">HBO Max subscription<\/a>.
