The teaser provides a fleeting glimpse of the costumes that Ben Affleck as Batman and Henry Cavill as Superman will wear.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice is the sequel to 2013's Man of Steel, which starred Henry in his first outing as the superhero from Krypton. Ben Affleck will join him in the upcoming movie, which marks a landmark celluloid moment for comic book fans as it is the first cinematic encounter between the two superheroes.
The film also stars Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor, Gal Gadot as Wonder Woman, and Jeremy Irons as Alfred Pennyworth. Returning cast members include Amy Adams as Lois Lane and Laurence Fishburne as Perry White.
Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice will also mark the first appearance of Wonder Woman in a live-action feature film.
The film, written by Chris Terrio and David S Goyer, is scheduled to release in March 2016.
