Zack Snyder's sequel to the 2013 Superman reboot Man of Steel is finally out, and while Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice hasn't exactly gotten the best reviews out there, it still makes a pretty interesting effort to tease the superhero team-up ahead for DC's Justice League movies. Find out how Wonder Woman, Flash, Aquaman and Cyborg will fit into the growing movieverse -- with spoilers!

The general plot of the film won't be treated that much, but the way the rest of the superheroes are introduced will, so be warned!

It should come at little surprise that Dawn of Justice is mostly focused on Batman and Superman (Ben Affleck and Henry Cavill), but Gal Gadot's Wonder Woman also plays a somewhat large part in the film, speaking to Bruce Wayne a few times as the two are trying to infiltrate Lex Luthor's (Jesse Eisenberg) home.

During a fancy party, Diana reveals Luthor has a photo that belongs to her but, when she copied the billionaire's computer files, she was unable to read the info because of how heavily encrypted they were.

Later, Bruce accesses the files, and it turns out Luthor has been collecting bits and pieces from metahumans around the world -- including the previously mentioned photo, which features a World War I-era Wonder Woman (a rare teaser of her upcoming film, including Chris Pine's Steve Trevor).

Later on, Diana tells Bruce that she left the world of men a century ago to get away from its evil ways -- we'll find out how on next year's Wonder Woman.

But wait -- she's not the only metahuman Luthor has gotten information about!

Aquaman (Jason Momoa), the half-human king of Atlantis, is found during an underwater probe of a shipwreck. In the tragically short clip, the Atlantean, who can breathe underwater and telepathically communicate with the beings of his realm, is shown wielding his staple trident.

Cyborg (Ray Fisher) is barely seen, but we get a glimpse into his backstory. In it, Silas Stone, played Joe Morton (Papa Pope on Scandal), is experimenting on his son, Victor/Cyborg, trying to save him -- when things go terribly wrong and an explosion occurs, he's turned into the character that'll be part of the Justice League.

Now, Ezra Miller's Flash gets a tad more screen time than the other guys on Luthor's files. Sure, there's a clip of Flash stopping a convenience store theft, but earlier in the movie, he makes an odder appearance.

There's a recurrent theme throughout Dawn of Justice: Bruce dreams that Superman stands against humanity, and seemingly teasing an Injustice: Gods Among Us-like connection. In one of these scenes, Flash opens a portal from the future and tells Batman he's right and he has to stop disaster from happening -- and that Lois is the key to everything, and there's a "stone" that must be found.

The next film of the DCEU will be the villain-themed Suicide Squad, set for an Aug. 5 release date.
