Zack Snyder posted a photo on Instagram with Turki Alalshikh, indicating they met in Saudi Arabia. This comes after discussions restarted about Paramount potentially acquiring Warner Bros. Discovery, and the possibility of reviving Snyder’s DC film universe.

“Hanging out with my friend @turki at his recording studio in Riyadh,” Snyder wrote.

The post quickly gained attention because of Alalshikh’s rising power in the worlds of film, sports, and entertainment, and Snyder’s growing work on projects funded by Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Connection Tied To Snyder’s UFC Movie Brawlers

I’m following the news about Zack Snyder’s new UFC movie, Brawlers, and it sounds like it’s really coming together. I’ve also heard that the project has financial support from Saudi Arabia, and this meeting seems to be another step in getting it made.

Alalshikh has been instrumental in growing Saudi Arabia’s involvement in both fighting sports and entertainment, establishing a significant and lasting impact beyond a simple appearance.

I’ve been following the reports, and it’s become clear that Zack Snyder isn’t just talking about working with Saudi investors – he’s actively building those relationships. His recent trip to Riyadh really drives home the point that this isn’t just a hypothetical partnership; it’s a real, ongoing collaboration.

Insiders Say Saudis Love The SnyderVerse

People familiar with the situation say Saudi investors are enthusiastic about the SnyderVerse, believing its dramatic and epic style will appeal to viewers worldwide.

As a huge fan of Zack Snyder’s vision, I’m hearing some exciting rumors! Apparently, there’s genuine hope for continuing the ‘SnyderVerse’ – that interconnected world he started with ‘Man of Steel’ and ‘Justice League’. It sounds like it could actually happen, but it really depends on who ends up owning Warner Bros. Discovery. Specifically, if Paramount Skydance buys them, the chances seem much higher. It’s a long shot, but as a devotee, I’m definitely keeping my fingers crossed!

Reports suggest Saudi Arabia is aiming for a cinematic event on the scale of the SnyderVerse, hoping to compete with Marvel’s Avengers: Doomsday and Secret Wars.

Saudi funding is playing a key role in the potential return of the Rush Hour franchise with Brett Ratner, and it also helped finance Zack Snyder’s DC films.

Apparently, Saudi investors prefer action-packed, big-budget films. There’s also talk that Michael Bay might be returning to direct a new Transformers movie, potentially with Shia LaBeouf reprising his role.

It’s easy to see why Saudi investors might support a revival of the SnyderVerse when you consider their recent $55 billion acquisition of Electronic Arts. That deal was largely fueled by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s strong interest in video games.
