In a recent interview with the Hall of Justice podcast, director Zack Snyder discussed how the Justice League fits into "Batman v Superman" including the minor roles that Aquaman (Jason Momoa), The Flash (Ezra Miller), and Cyborg (Ray Fisher) will play in the film:
As far as the other Justice League characters go, they play a very small role. It’s really just a whisper they exist. Except for Wonder Woman, we see her really well. But really the movie is about Batman and Superman. And we really take time with them and we really drill down on the why of them and what they stand for and their beliefs and them as characters. That’s pretty much the why of the movie. But again as I said, it does begin the conversation about these guys are out there.
Sndyer also offered insight on DC's Cinematic Multiverse and it's integration into the current line-up of television programs and movies based on the iconic characters of DC Comics:
As opposed to trying to shoehorn all these storylines into a single universe, we let the characters exist in a multi-universe, and it’s a lot more fun, and a lot more value for the audience.
[Fans] get to see their favorite, most beloved characters on different adventures at the same time in different universes. It makes it a lot more fun, we get to go in different directions at the same time. I’m like a kid in a candy store with this incredible opportunity. It’s really fun. It couldn’t be any better.
