A new behind-the-scenes photo teases Justice League’s ancient prologue sequence. Anticipation is running high for the upcoming superhero movie, featuring the first live-action team-up of the world’s finest heroes - Batman (Ben Affleck), Superman (Henry Cavill), Wonder Woman (Gal Gadot), Aquaman (Jason Momoa), Flash (Ezra Miller), and Cyborg (Ray Fisher) - on the big screen. Although there are several threats on the horizon, the newly-formed team will first need to work together in order to defend Earth from Steppenwolf (Ciarán Hinds) and his army of Parademons.

Although Zack Snyder won’t be participating in the movie’s global press tour, that doesn’t mean he won’t continue to promote the movie’s he’s worked so hard to build from afar. He’s promised to share behind-the-scenes photos, from his time on set, every day for the next month. Yesterday, he revealed the first photo, showing off Central City, and now he’s teasing the movie’s ancient prologue sequence on the social media app Vero. Take a look below (via Twitter):

The last attention-grabbing detail from the photo is the Atlantean warrior standing next to Snyder. What’s important about this character is that he may actually be Atlan, the Dead King, whose statue was teased in a recent promo video. If you look closely, it’s possible that the armor he’s wearing is the same one that Aquaman wears in the movie. After all, it was previously revealed that Arthur Curry will need to go back to Atlantis in order to retrieve his armor. But, we’ll have to wait until Justice League arrives next month to find out for sure.
