2) All The Cameos
Apart from the six central heroes – he might not show up in this trailer, but remember that Superman will be resurrected at some point in the movie – Justice League will be stuffed to the nines with a huge supporting cast. A few of these faces turn up for some exciting cameos in this second trailer – giving us our first look at three new characters in the process.
Firstly, we get a brief glimpse of Amy Adams returning as Lois Lane. Presumably, Lois won’t get as major a role in this movie as she did in Man of Steel and BvS, but it still seems like she’ll be important to the plot. After all, back in BvS, the Flash from the future did say that “Lois is the key.” Whatever that means.
Next up, we have Amber Heard as Mera, Aquaman’s wife and queen of Atlantis. Again, it’s unknown how big a role Mera will play in Justice League – though we’ll shortly see her again in 2018’s Aquaman – but given that she’s a formidable fighter in her own right, we would expect her to land a hand at some point.
From Mera, we jump to a member of the Flash’s supporting cast – namely, his father Henry Allen. As played by Watchmen‘s Doctor Manhattan himself, Billy Crudup, we see that Barry’s beloved pa is locked up in prison. Fans of The Flash TV show will find this moment very familiar, as Barry and Henry touching hands through the glass is highly reminiscent of a similar scene from the series’ first season.
That’s still not all, though…
