The official synopsis for “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice” has been revealed!
While the Batman V Superman trailer gave us pretty good idea of the plot, the released synopsis today from Collider confirms our speculation. As it turns out, the Batman and Superman feud will only be one aspect of the film’s plot. While Batman is busy laying down some vigilante justice on Superman, another problem will arise.
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.
While we know a few things that could be going on in “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice,” I think we still can speculate as to what takes the highest precedence. Recently it was confirmed that Doomsday will appear in the film so this could be the new “threat” that the synopsis speaks of. Lex Luthor does play a pivotal role as well in the film but whether he will take part in Doomsday’s creation has yet to be determined.
My guess is that Doomsday will be the threat and force Batman and Superman to work together to stop him. Given that the title contains “Dawn of Justice,” I would also expect to see this battle grab the attention of Wonder Woman and Aquaman which may be the “dawn” (see what I did there?) of the Justice League.
