Zack asked Joss to write some additional material for the film, not the studio, and the pickup shooting had already been planned before Principal Photography finished.

Thanks for all the great photos!

That surprises me since Zack had such a clear vision for the film and Joss added in a lot of stuff that didn't fit the feel of what Zack's usual thing is. I haven't heard about this.

So many were there for the con

Joss had just come on to talk to Warner Bros. about doing Batgirl, and when Zack realized that Justice League needed additional scenes, he reached out and asked Joss to write them.

^ I definitely have been hearing things differently. I heard after Zack stepped down because of his daughter, the studios brought Joss in since he was doing stuff with Batgirl. And that he also did more reshoots then what was said. A lot of stuff was taken out of the original trailers and not put in the movie, and those were the original scenes Zack shot before Joss came in.

Documented proof of the timeline of events re: Joss's involvement, Zack's departure, Batgirl, and JL's reshoots:
March 30: A Batgirl movie directed by Joss is announced

May 22 : Zack steps away from JL postproduction

Note the following from that article:
As far as the amount of reshoots and the length thereof is concerned, rumors of massive additions and extensive time spent on set were greatly exaggerated, as documented by the following:
- https://www.cinemablend.com/news/169...eague-reshoots
- Inside ‘Justice League’s’ Extensive Reshoots – Variety
- Justice League Reshoots Are 15-20% of the Film, Says Producer | Collider

Furthermore, it is not legally possible for Joss to have drastically altered the final film to the degree that has been claimed by amateur online pundits because of the nature and structure of the rules governing film production set forth by the Directors' Guild of America, of which both Zack and Joss are members.

Amateur online pundits have also pointed to Writers' Guild of America guidelines stipulating that a writer must have (re)written 33% of an "adapted screenplay" in order to receive credit, but that percentage is "weighted" and is therefore not universally determined by any true clear-cut standard, as explained fairly succinctly by the following article:

Logan

Saw the movie again yesterday, the first time I saw it was at a giant IMAX theater !
Saw a few scenes I forgot or missed . At the end When Bruce Wayne Alfred and Diana are at the Original Wayne Manor that was burned down in Batman begins rebuilt in Dark Knight rises Should have had Clark Barry Allen Aquaman and cyborg there to show that they are team. I really liked how the team sans Superman , bonded in the bat cave then in the battle with Steppenwolf.

The movie has now surpassed $615 million worldwide

Aw, that's such a cute picture!

Logan, it must have looked great in IMAX! I also really enjoyed the bonding of the team. It will definitely help future movies to have that aspect in there.

Thank you for all of that information. I do believe it was definitely under 33% since it still had the tone and overall arc that was set up from the beginning. I do appreciate you giving me all this information so I can be more informed.

^ I didn't include this in my previous post largely because it slipped my mind, but Producer Charles Roven has given a number of 15-20% as far as the reshoot material from Joss is concerned, but that 15-20% worth of material contained enough new elements for the WGA to make a "weighted" determination that it amounted to 33% of the script, which was enough to earn Joss a Co-Screenwriting credit.

Such a small amount compared to Zach's involvement
