We are just a few months away from seeing theJustice Leagueunite in live-action on the big screen for the very first time ever. We recently got a massive new trailer for the movie at San Diego Comic-Con which gave us a whole bunch of new footage to chew on ahead of the July 14, 2025, release date. Now, a condensed theatrical version of the trailer has arrived online, giving us some very brief snippets of footage and some brand new dialogue not featured in theJustice League Comic-Con trailer.
The condensedJustice Leaguetrailer, which comes to us courtesy of DC AlertTVShows, clocks in at 2 minutes and 34 seconds. That is quite a bit shorter than the massive 4-minute trailer that we got atSDCC, but this is a much more reasonable length to present in movie theaters and it pretty much gives the exact same feel the extended trailer did, just at a much more rapid pace with absolutely no breathing room. Plus, we get a new line in this version, with the “Honestly I think we’re all gonna die” line, replaced with, “This is crazy. Fighting The Devil and his army, in Hell.”
InJustice League, the world is still dealing withSuperman’s deathat the hands of Doomsday. Bruce Wayne/Batman reevaluates his extreme methods and begins reaching out to other heroes to assemble a team of crime-fighters to defend Earth from all kinds of threats. Like a giant alien with a huge planet-shattering hammer, for example. Together with Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, Batman seeks out Cyborg, Barry Allen aka The Flash and the Atlantean warrior king known as Aquaman. They face off against Steppenwolf, who just so happens to be the second-in-command to alien warlord Darkseid, who is tasked with finding several artifacts that are hidden on Earth.
Joss Whedonis currently busy handling some reportedly extensive reshoots onJustice Leagueas well as finishing up post-production on the superhero team up. Whedon had to take over for Zack Snyder recently as theMan of Steeldirector had to step away from the project over a personal tragedy. Considering that the movie is just three months away from arriving in theaters it sounds like the final cut ofJustice Leaguecould be coming in just under the wire, but there’s still plenty of time for Joss Whedon to get this thing where it needs to be.
Considering all of the good will that Warner Bros. managed to build for theDCEUwithWonder Womanover the summer, they must be hoping that they can continue that withJustice League. If they can double up and have another movie that isn’t divisive and crushes at the box office, the sins ofBatman V. Superman: Dawn of JusticeandSuicide Squadwill be all but forgotten.
