Justice League was completely different tbf. He got one for two reasons, because his name power has toes to a directors cut and also to make an R rated version.
Comment on Every Difference Between Rebel Moon’s Director Cuts & The Original Versions

It’s one thing to have a director’s cut because of studio meddling of the theatrical release, and it’s another to have one despite the director having creative control of both versions. What’s the point? Cash grab? A way to make an excuse if the film bombs? It’s not like his director’s cuts are any better. They’re meh at best.
Take Villenueve’s films. They don’t have director’s cuts because per him, the theatrical version IS the director’s cut and his vision of the film.
The original versions of Rebel Moon were a 4 hour snooze fest. I’m not wasting my time watching yet another 4 hours (or longer) of the same film that likely is the same quality.

In this case he wanted to do an R rated film but the studio wanted PG13. They agreed that the first release would be PG13 he would also get to make his R rated cut for later release.
