Zack Snyder's true plan for were announced in 2014.
The original plan made it as far as Wonder Woman were deep in development. Still, Snyder was gearing up to begin production on the first of two Justice League movie in early 2016 when the response to BvS arrived. It was much harsher than they were anticipating, with WB taking a more hands-on approach after pushback from critics and a vocal section of general audiences. The fallout from Justice League - which received mixed reviews and is the lowest grossing entry in the DCEU at the box office - has been complicated to say the least.

However, one of the biggest stories to come out of the film is the desire to see the his Director's Cut event that followed a screening of the Ultimate Cut of Batman v Superman (and as shared on Twitter by Screen Rant's own Stephen Colbert), Snyder revealed that his original script for Justice League was scrapped before it even got made.
It's already been made clear that Justice League is not the movie that Snyder intended it to be, but this means that no version of the completed film ever could have been. The mandated rewrites that Snyder and Terrio had to do leading up to the start of filming was just the beginning though. Geoff Johns was brought aboard the project and did his own round of rewrites on the script and story, while Justice League was famously overhauled even more when showed the current cut of the film to several writers.
While it's understandable why WB and DC were so hands-on after two less than unanimously loved films were released, the constant tinkering to try and make an immediate "course correction" with Justice League was a near impossible task. Furthermore, the decision is a disappointing one for those who did enjoy Snyder's take on the DC characters. Even though there's been through a comic or animated movies perhaps, it's now confirmed that the version of Justice League many are most interested in seeing died after the response to Batman v Superman.
