We still have a serious, bruised Superman enduring the public’s ire.
I feel like that’s just standard Lex behavior. You’re right we saw that in Batman v Superman, but that was also Lex.
The difference is optimism. When we first meet the DCEU Superman he ends his film saying that he’s from Kansas, a regular American, you can trust him and he’ll trust you. (Link). But we don’t see that level of optimism later on in the series.
Think of Superman like Captain America, he’s a boy scout. Now take the Captain America you know and put him in the DC films playing Superman. It wouldn’t quite work. Superman behaves in a way that just isn’t quite right.
But now look at this trailer. Superman is beaten, but he’s getting back up. Superman has trash thrown at him, but he’s saving children. A child a world away is raising a flag of Superman.
I expect the full trailer will show us everything going wrong for Superman. He will have every reason to quit. No one will want him to get involved. But he won’t. He’ll keep on helping.
