The preview then goes on to feature clips of the superheroes battling it out in various settings, with Superman reminding Batman that he could kill him at any time if he actually wanted to do so.

“Civil liberties are being trampled on in your city, people are living in fear, he thinks he’s above the law”, he tells Bruce of Batman. Wayne looks Kent in the eyes and simply says, “I have a bad history with freaks dressed as clowns”. Enter Lex, a businessman who is determined to defeat Superman.

Also cast are Holly Hunter, Laurence Fishburne, Diane Lane, Callan Mulvey, Jeremy Irons, Tao Okamoto, Ezra Miller, Ray Fisher, Jason Momoa and TJ Norris.
