'Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice' Trailer: Will Doomsday Kill Superman?
The official trailer for "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" was finally released on Wednesday, and it seems to tease Superman's death at the hands of a character called Doomsday.
The "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" full trailer was first seen on "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" on Wednesday when the host interviewed Ben Affleck, who stars in the movie. The video shows a gray monster who resembles Doomsday, the character in the comics created by Lex Luthor who will kill Superman, according to Entertainment Weekly.
Jesse Eisenberg, who plays Lex in the movie, describes the encounter between Batman and Superman as "the greatest gladiator match in the history of the world," the report relays.

However, Batman and Superman will be forced to set aside whatever beef they have and unite to save the world from the powerful villain who shoots fire from his eyes. The trailer also teased a possible team-up of three superheroes including Wonder Woman, who suddenly appears to help them take on Doomsday, ABC News reports.
In one scene, Wonder Woman is seen saving Batman from Doomsday's heat vision. She jumps in between and holds up her shield to protect him, proving that female superheroes are capable of saving male superheroes, too.
The heavy plot of the movie, however, is broken occasionally by light humorous conversations between the main characters. When Bruce Wayne meets Clark Kent for the first time during a Luther Corp. event, the two begin a heated conversation, which is peppered by funny quips from Lex, the report details.
At one point, Wayne sarcastically comments on Kent's habit of writing exaggerated editorials placing Superman on a pedestal each time he rescues a cat out of a tree. He then continues that his comment may just stem from his bad experience of "freaks dressed like clowns." Lex then steps in suddenly to break the heated situation and shakes Kent's hand, remarking on how good his grip was and advising Wayne not to pick a fight with him.
"Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" premieres in cinemas on March 25, 2016.
