New Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer sees Wonder Woman come to their rescue
'Is she with you?'
Ben Affleck visited Jimmy Kimmel Live armed with a second Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice trailer last night, and the first one to really give us a proper look at the Man of Steel sequel.
The three-minute clip served up four interesting moments:
- A tense meeting between Clark Kent and Bruce Wayne
Kent: “Civil liberties are being tramped on in your city. People are living in fear. "[Batman] thinks he's above the law."
Wayne: The Daily Planet criticising people who think they're above the laws is a little hypocritical, wouldn't you say? Considering every time your hero saves a cat out of a tree, you write a puff piece editorial… about an alien who can burn the whole place down.”
- A proper look at Jesse Eisenberg’s Lex Luthor, who it seems will intentionally be more neurotic than menacing
- The arrival of super villain Doomsday
- Gal Gadot’s Wonder Woman rescuing Superman and Batman, and apparently bringing the pair together following their feud
Warned by his butler Alfred about “going to war”, Batman fumes: "That son of a bitch brought the war to us!”.
There are also a few references to earlier Batman films, including a nod to The Joker.
The trailer follows a teaser released earlier in the week that saw Superman unmask a chained up Batman.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has a release date of March 25 in the UK and the US.
