50 free Justice League Movie trivia questions with answers — entertainment quiz, new questions added Aug 2026.
This Justice League movie trivia quiz covers the 2017 DC Extended Universe film and Zack Snyder's Justice League, the four-hour director's cut released on HBO Max in 2021. The easy questions handle the cast and the plot: Batman and Wonder Woman recruiting the Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg, Steppenwolf and his Parademons, the three Mother Boxes and the resurrection of Superman. The harder ones dig into the details, from where the final battle happens to what Cyborg's father did with the box, who Steppenwolf answers to and what the Knightmare epilogue shows. Behind the scenes it covers one of the most troubled productions in superhero film history: George Miller's cancelled Justice League: Mortal, Snyder's departure after his daughter's death, Joss Whedon's reshoots and the two-hour mandate, Henry Cavill's Mission: Impossible moustache, the $300 million budget, Danny Elfman replacing Junkie XL and then Junkie XL coming back to write the longest score in film history, the ReleaseTheSnyderCut campaign and the Justice Is Gray edition. Every answer was checked against the two films' encyclopaedia entries before publishing. For more DC, try our DC movies, Batman and Superman quizzes.
