00:00Here are today's top stories. First, Conan O'Brien has revealed that his nightly show
00:04Conan will end in 2021 after 10 seasons on TBS. However, the host isn't ready to retire yet.
00:10After O'Brien's late night show wraps in June 2021, he'll then segue to a weekly variety series
00:16on HBO Max, which like TBS is owned by WarnerMedia. And O'Brien won't be leaving the cable network
00:21entirely. His Conan Without Borders travel specials will continue to air on TBS. O'Brien
00:26is the longest tenured current host of a late night show, having first hosted NBC's Late Night in
00:321993. We now have a new look at Zack Snyder's Justice League. If you can believe it, the original
00:37Justice League hit theaters three years ago today. To mark the anniversary, filmmaker Zack Snyder has
00:42unveiled a new black and white trailer for his cut of Justice League, which will appear in four
00:47one-hour episodes on HBO Max next year.
00:56The Snyder cut of Justice League comes after years of fan campaigning for the filmmaker to be allowed
01:03to complete his vision. After stepping away from the project in May 2017, following a family tragedy,
01:09director Joss Whedon stepped in to complete Justice League, which underwhelmed at the box office.
01:14No release date has been set yet for Zack Snyder's Justice League. We know a TV spinoff of the forthcoming
01:19film The Batman is in the works at HBO Max, but now there's already been a switch up behind the scenes.
01:24If you are justice, please do not lie.
01:31The Hollywood Reporter can exclusively reveal that Boardwalk Empire creator Terrence Winter,
01:36who was poised to write and serve as showrunner on the Batman TV spinoff, has departed the series.
01:41Sources say creative differences are to blame for the split, as Winter's vision for the drama did not
01:45match what Matt Reeves and other producers had in mind. A search is underway for a new showrunner for
01:50the still-untitled drama that has been going by the working title of Gotham Central. HBO Max and
01:55studio Warner Bros. Television declined to comment. For more on all these stories, head to THR.com.
