[Spoiler Alert] Some say Batman’s weapon of choice against Superman in “Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice” is none other than a kryptonite gun. While others are of the opinion that Batman’s “Batmobile” will play a crucial role when he takes on Superman. Whatever the weapon of destruction may be, Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Batman vs. Superman” TV spots shows an all new terrifying Batman, played by Ben Affleck.

Just like the other ones, the new "Batman V Superman" trailer gives one goosebumps and brings out Batman’s darker side to the fullest. However, as suggested by the new "Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice" trailer, Wonder Woman will unite the two before it’s too late, before the world crashes down.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the 30-sec “Batman V Superman” TV spot, aired during the NFL Wildcard game featuring the Kansas City Chiefs against the Houston Texans on Saturday, shows the “Batmobile” bearing down on the “Man of Steel.”

It hits him, spins out of control and crashes into flames. Superman, with his usual cool and Godlike aura, walks towards the vehicle. Batman rises and they come face to face. Then of course, Batman delivers his now cult-dialogue – “Tell me, do you bleed.” Superman stares and then flies away. “You will,” says the caped crusader. There’s absolute disgust for each other.

The Batman in “Batman vs. Superman: Dawn of Justice” is way darker than Christopher Nolan’s Batman trilogy starring Christian Bale as the caped crusader. He played a Batman who is extremely human and vulnerable. Surely, he manhandled Joker (late Heath Ledger) when Rachel (Maggie Gyllenhaal) bit the dust in “The Dark Knight,” but he was never the Batman seeking blood. This never-seen-before Batman is seeking violence and fuelled by hatred, writes CinemaBlend.

Warner Bros. has also released another “Batman V Superman” TV spot and that is sans any violence. It shows “Clark Kent” meeting Bruce Wayne for the first time. The tension between the two is visible as Lex Luthor (Jesse Eisenberg), a complicated and sophisticated young businessman, fixated on defeating Superman introduces the two.
