Still
reeling from the after effects of Superman’s (Henry Cavill) destructive battle
with his Kryptonian rivals that caused mass destruction both in Gotham and
Metropolis, Batman (Ben Affleck) considers the potential damage the
extra-terrestrial could still cause, and declares him as a threat. In an effort
to develop a weapon that could deter the Man of Steel, Lex Luthor (Jesse
Eisenberg) threads through the currents of American bureaucracy in an attempt
to secure access to Kryptonite samples left by the commotion of eighteen months
ago, but is faced with staunch opposition from senator June Finch (Holly
Hunter). After a carefully orchestrated mayhem leaves Superman guilty in the
eyes of the public, The Caped Crusader takes matters into his own hands,
leading to a gladiator match between the two heroes that the world has never
seen before. They are forced to unite, however, as a bigger threat emerges from
the shadows of the past. As they find themselves overpowered by the much
stronger enemy, unexpected assistance arrives courtesy of Wonder Woman (Gal
Gadot), a 5,000-year-old deity who has decided long ago to lie low and no
longer be of help to human beings.
