Zack Snyder is planning his directorial comeback with an adaptation of Ayn Rand’s 1943 novel “The Fountainhead.” The director announced the plan on the social media platform Vero (via Deadline) when asked by a fan to name his next project. Snyder’s last directorial credit is 2017’s “Justice League,” although he stepped away from production in May 2017 after a family tragedy. Joss Whedon boarded the Warner Bros. tentpole and completed it on Snyder’s behalf, making “Batman v Superman” in 2016 the director’s last completed directorial effort.

The novel was adapted into a movie in 1949, starring Gary Cooper as Roark, and has caught the eye of directors like Michael Cimino and Oliver Stone over the years.
