SDCC 2017 is underway, and we already have our first major reveal from the convention floor. Warner Bros. Consumer Products and Mattel debuted the first public look at the newJustice LeagueBatmobile to fans last night, giving us a look atBen Affleck’s upgraded ride for the highly anticipated DC Extended Universe team-up movie. Two high-resolution images have been provided, so fans at home can pour over every detail to figure out what clues (if any) for the plot of the film may be hidden on the vehicle.
I honestly can’t really tell the difference between this Batmobile and the one seen inBatman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. It’s very tank-like and battle-ready, complete with those machine guns, so it’ll be interesting to see how the vehicle is used in the context of the film as the heroes square off against the alien threat Steppenwolf and his parademons.
It’ll also be interesting to see how the finishedJustice Leaguecompares to the one we’ve seen in trailers and will see in toys and long-lead marketing materials.Zack Snyderstepped down as director earlier this year to tend to a personal tragedy, whileJoss Whedonis now steering the ship through post-production and reshoots. How much of the film will be retooled? We’ll have to wait and see, but I’m extremely eager to see the new trailer that Warner Bros. will surely drop during the film’s Comic-Con panel on Saturday.
For now, take a look at theJustice LeagueBatmobile images below, andclick hereto catch up on all of Collider’s SDCC 2017 coverage thus far.Justice Leaguealso starsGal Gadot,Jason Momoa,Ezra Miller,Ray Fisher, andCiaran Hindsand opens in theaters on November 17th.
Here’s the official synopsis forJustice League:
Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
