The Threat Of Darkseid Looms In A Possible New Synopsis For Zack Snyder's JUSTICE LEAGUE
What is apparently a new synopsis for Zack Snyder's Justice League has found its way online, confirming a few things we already suspected about the plot, as well as an impending appearance from Darkseid.
While we anxiously await that trailer, a new synopsis for Justice League has seemingly been unearthed in the pages of an unnamed magazine (via The Playlist). The detailed breakdown confirms several things that fans had already pretty much figured out about the plot, and also gives the villainous Darkseid a mention.
Though this is being reported everywhere as an official synopsis from Warner Bros., I have my doubts. For one, it's highly unlikely the studio would refer to Synder's previous DC flick as "BvS", and there's also the sloppy repetition of Darkseid's name at the end. Is it possible this magazine just cobbled something together based on info that was already floating around?
Have a read through and see what you make of it.
In the wake of Clark Kent/Superman’s (Cavill) death at the hands of Doomsday in BvS, vigilante Bruce Wayne/Batman (Affleck) reevaluates his extreme methods and begins reaching out to extraordinary heroes to assemble a team of crime-fighters to defend earth from all kinds of threats. Together with Diana Prince/Wonder Woman (Gadot), Batman seeks out cybernetically enhanced former college football star Vic Stone/Cyborg (Fisher), speedster Barry Allen/The Flash (Miller) and Atlantean warrior king Arthur Curry/Aquaman (Momoa). They face off against Steppenwolf (Hinds), the herald and second-in-command to alien warlord Darkseid, who is charged by Darkseid with hunting down three artifacts hidden on Earth.
Justice League is set to hit theaters on November 17.
