Official Trailer Released for 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'

Earlier, I watched the pirated version of the first trailer for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and felt a little dirty and unsatisfied. Well damn it, we can't be taken down by a pirate! Director Zack Snyder wouldn't stand for that crap and released the official trailer soon after. With voiceovers from Holly Hunter, Jeremy Irons and Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, we see that Superman is now considered a 'False God' and devil and we really don't want him here.

Cue the angry Batman and that classic Batmanny voice that sounds like he's been gargling gravel...“Tell me, do you bleed? You will.”  The film hits theaters on March 25, 2016 so hang in there, kids.

First Look at Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman in 'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'

She's fierce, feminine and looks like she won't be taking any crap. The Warner Bros. panel at Comic-Con not only gave some glimpses of concept art from the Zack Snyder-directed "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" but what we've all been aching to see...Wonder Woman.

According to io9, Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck and Gal Gadot were present and posed for pics and they went on to describe the concept art...

The rooftops of Gotham City, Superman flying through flames, with an intense expression on his face, Batman standing in the rain on the dark rooftops, Batman with his batmobile, Superman running away from an alien spaceship, Superman carrying what looks like an injured Lois Lane, and Superman doing a three-point landing. Batman and Superman both looking hella intense and angry and kind of Frank Miller-esque.


Here's the "trinity" compliments of Brian Truitt on Twitter...

So what do you think about our Wonder Woman? Were you expecting the glamazon in gold, red and blue from the 70s? Probably not. The film is scheduled for release on May 6, 2016.

A closer look at stubbly Ben Affleck as the Dark Knight in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" has been revealed in honor of Batman's 75th Anniversary and he's looking quite pensive. Director Zack Snyder simply tweeted #75 along with the new image. It's being featured at this week's San Diego Comic-Con as part of the Anniversary Montage Wall.

From DC Comic's blog, "Batman is a major presence at San Diego Comic-Con. He’s been seen in comics, film, TV, games, toys and clothing, and it’s all represented within the DC Entertainment booth, particularly in the Batman 75th Anniversary montage wall created for the show."

Here is the "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" press note...

We got to see Ben Affleck as Batman back in May when director, Zack Snyder tweeted a pic and now we're treated to a picture of Henry Cavill as Superman, thanks to Warner Bros. We've obviously already seen Henry as Supes but it looks like he'll looking a tad different. The picture hints at a stormy situation and recently, Snyder talked with USA Today revealing more about the implications of the "v" in the title.

USA Today reveals, "The director can't say exactly how the relationship between the two superheroes evolves, 'but suffice it to say there is a 'v' in between their names' in the movie title, Snyder says. He explains that having the "v" instead of 'vs.' is a way 'to keep it from being a straight 'versus' movie, even in the most subtle way.'"

Snyder also understands why fans are so excited for the film, "You can talk all you want about other superhero movies, but it's Batman and Superman, let's just be honest. I don't know how you get bigger than that."

So lets take a look at 2013 Superman and May 6, 2016 Superman...

2013 v 2016: Kal-El's Outfit

The belt looks different, the "S" may or may not be slightly altered (read: smaller) and well, his hair is less fluffy (he is standing in the rain). Methinks he's a tad buffer as well.  Let us know what you think and if you're pumped for the film like Snyder thinks you should be!
