With the March 25 release date for Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice rapidly approaching, fans can surely expect a slew of new footage and promotional material over the next few weeks. Earlier today, Jeep released a new 30-second ad for their new Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice edition of the Jeep Renegade, featuring Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne, as he uses this vehicle to escape the carnage in Gotham. If that wasn't enough, we also have two character posters featuring Lois Lane (Amy Adams) and Jeremy Irons, along with a special video from Superman himself, Henry Cavill.
The Henry Cavill video is part of a new Omaze campaign, where one lucky winner will attend the Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice premiere, where they will get to meet Henry Cavill, Ben Affleck and Jesse Eisenberg. The winner and a friend will get to ride in the Batmobile with Ben Affleck at the New York City premiere, and then fly in a helicopter with Henry Cavill. They will also get to photobomb the rest of the cast on the red carpet with Jesse Eisenberg. This campaign will benefit three charities, Eastern Congo Initiative (ECI), The SEED Project and Durrell Wildlife Conservation Trust, which were nominated by the actors.
Following his titanic struggle against General Zod, Metropolis has been razed to the ground and Superman is the most controversial figure in the world. While for many he is still an emblem of hope, a growing number of people consider him a threat to humanity, seeking justice for the chaos he has brought to Earth. As far as Bruce Wayne is concerned, Superman is clearly a danger to society. He fears for the future of the world with such a reckless power left ungoverned, and so he dons his mask and cape to right Superman's wrongs. The rivalry between them is furious, fueled by bitterness and vengeance, and nothing can dissuade them from waging this war. However, a dark new threat arises in the form of a third man: one who has a power greater than either of them to endanger the world and cause total destruction.
