HBO Max has released a brand new trailer forZack Snyder’s Justice League. In a truly surprising move,Zack Snyderunveiled the official trailer for his cut of the DCEU’sJustice Leagueahead of schedule on Sunday. The official trailer arrives one month beforeSnyder’s four-hourJustice Leaguemoviepremieres on HBO Max. Snyder and HBO Max have been releasing new teases related toZack Snyder’s Justice Leagueat regular intervals in recent weeks,including the official synopsis, tons of new posters, a teaser featuring a great shot ofHenry Cavill’sSuperman using his laser eyes, and even an ominous tease about theappearance ofJared Leto’s Joker.
We knew the official trailer forZack Snyder’s Justice Leaguewould be arriving on Valentine’s Day — we just didn’t know it would arrive so early. Last week, on Super Bowl Sunday,Snyder shared a tweetwith a clip of Victor Stone (Ray Fisher) in his pre-Cyborg days playing in a football game. The Super Bowl-appropriate clip also noted that a new trailer would be arriving today, Valentine’s Day, around 12:15 p.m. ET/9:15 a.m. PT. So, imagine our surprise when Snyder and HBO Max dropped the officialZack Snyder’s Justice Leaguetrailer way earlier than expected to ensure that our Valentine’s Day was as epic as possible.
There is a lot to process in this official trailer. First off, as fans have known and as has been confirmed with previousSnyder CutJustice Leagueteasers and trailers, plenty of footage has been brought over from 2017’sJustice League. Shots likeBen Affleck’s Batman fighting the Parademons and the Amazons uniting to prevent Steppenwolf from stealing a Mother Box have made their way into Snyder’s new version. But there is a ton of new footage that teases a brighter, more energetic, and truer-to-Snyder version ofJustice League. Among the exciting moments in the official trailer are all the new shots we get of Fisher as Cyborg (a promise that the Snyder Cut Cyborg will have far more to do), a preview ofEzra Miller’s Barry Allen saving Iris West (Kiersey Clemons), and Superman looking rad as hell in his black suit. But the most exciting moment is the trailer’s final tease featuring Joker, who appears to Batman in a post-apocalyptic vision. I don’t know about you but…I think I’m excited forZack Snyder’s Justice League?

Here’s the official synopsis forZack Snyder’s Justice League:
In ‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’, determined to ensure Superman’s (Henry Cavill) ultimate sacrifice was not in vain, Bruce Wayne (Ben Affleck) aligns forces with Diana Prince (Gal Gadot) with plans to recruit a team of metahumans to protect the world from an approaching threat of catastrophic proportions. The task proves more difficult than Bruce imagined, as each of the recruits must face the demons of their own pasts to transcend that which has held them back, allowing them to come together, finally forming an unprecedented league of heroes. Now united, Batman (Affleck), Wonder Woman (Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), Cyborg (Ray Fisher), and The Flash (Ezra Miller) may be too late to save the planet from Steppenwolf, DeSaad, and Darkseid — and their dreadful intentions.
