‘Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice’ Movie Update: Plot Revealed by Neil deGrasse Tyson as Superman becomes the villain

By

With the leak of the teaser to file-sharing sites, Warner Bros. freaked out as they were forced to reveal the official trailer of the upcoming superhero film "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice" three days earlier before its supposed release. Astrophysicist and director Neil deGrasse Tyson also dropped some hints on the plot and who might be the villain between the two popular DC Comics characters.

The leaked teaser was disclosed to the internet on April 16 and was appeared to be taped off of a movie screen with the captions embedded in Portuguese. However, the start of the leaked trailer is actually the end of the official one, and there seemed to be movie theater employees checking it for sound and picture. In lieu of releasing the official one, Warner Bros. shut down YouTube videos, and has released the official HD trailer subsequently.

As a consolation, what fans got from the "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice" trailer is bit of a clue as to why the two legendary heroes are fighting. There is also a shot of Superman's statue bearing the phrase "False God" along its chest in blood red paint. Batman also asks Superman if he bleeds, probably when hurt.

Meanwhile, while the plot is still not clear-cut, Neil deGrasse Tyson, one of the many voices heard in the beginning of the "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice" trailer, has some insights about the movie. During his appearance on "The Daily Show" with Jon Stewart, he was asked about the Zack Snyder-directed film.

In the interview, it was revealed that Batman, portrayed by Ben Affleck, reports to Commissioner Gordon and the Mayor of Gotham. deGrasse Tyson also pointed out that Superman doesn't report to anyone that the people know about. "Yeah, so nobody we know. Nobody we have any insight into. He just behaves in any way he wants. And so at the end of the day, what might matter is the public reception of the superhero's conduct. And if Batman executes our wishes in the city, and the Superman does whatever he wants: that's a conflict," deGrasse Tyson elaborated. So in a nutshell, he stipulated that Superman will be the villain in "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice."

In the same way, DeGrasse Tyson has also made a descriptive insight on Christopher Nolan's "Interstellar" last year, so this is not his first time giving one. While his thoughts are not focused on the artistic merits of the film but to the scientific ideas, it went viral. He praised some concepts on the movie including how Albert Einstein's Relativity of Time and Curvature of Space was represented.

Warner Bros. Pictures' "Batman vs Superman: Dawn of Justice" is directed by Zack Snyder and is slated to be released in the United States on March 25, 2016. It stars Ben Affleck as Batman, Henry Cavill as Superman, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, Jason Momoa as Aquaman, Amy Adams as Lois Lane, and among others.
