While we know the cast of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and assume that it will have the two future Justice Leaguers battling in some way, we don't actually know the reasons why. What could drive these two to become enemies? What are the forces that will make them become friends? How do Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and Cyborg fit into all of this? Well, Warner Bros. has finally provided an official synopsis and there are still plenty of questions to be answered.
Fearing the actions of a god-like super hero left unchecked, Gotham City’s own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis’s most revered, modern-day savior, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with Batman and Superman at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it’s ever known before.
Collider came across the synopsis while attending the Licensing Expo in Las Vegas, where Warner Bros. is showing off their biggest properties. So what is this "new threat", anyway? Most likely it means Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg), but with rumors we'll also see Doomsday (aka the creature that killed Superman) it could be just about anything.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opens March 25th 2016, directed by Zack Snyder.
