Gotham City and Metropolis are on display in a pair of new Batman v Superman Turkish Airways promotional spots that debuted during Super Bowl 50 Sunday evening.
The Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice spots are designed to promote the fictional cities in a positive light, including touching upon their famous heroes. Potentially new footage lifted from the film is mixed with footage obviously shot exclusively for the Turkish Airways promos to create a presentation that feels lifted from our world.
Highlights in the Metropolis spot include multiple appearances by Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg) and a first-look at the mogul’s corporate headquarters from above. Superman makes a couple quick flyby’s and the Daily Planet building is obvious, but Lex is big draw as far as the city of Metropolis is concerned.
The Gotham City spot wastes no time dropping a huge Easter Egg with a clear shot of Ace Chemicals, otherwise known as the birthplace of The Joker in his ghoulish white facade. Ben Affleck as Bruce Wayne touts Turkish airways and their new route to Gotham while Batman’s bat signal is seen in the night sky as a potential tourist attraction.
It won’t be long until Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice arrives in roughly a half-and-a-half from now.
