Update: Check out the new Suicide Squad trailer and Wonder Woman featurette below:

New footage from Batman v Superman, first sneak peek from the solo Wonder Woman movie and a brand new Suicide Squad trailer — that is what awaits superhero fans worldwide as The CW airs special TV event DC Films Presents: Dawn of The Justice League tonight 19 January.

The special will be hosted by filmmaker/writer Kevin Smith, who in the latest episode of his popular podcast Fat Man on Batman talked about what exactly fans will be seeing this Tuesday night.

"They show footage, new footage of Batman v Superman," said Smith. "They show footage from the Wonder Woman movie that they're shooting right now, which includes shots of Wonder Woman in action doing some s**t you've never seen before. Then the whole f***king thing wraps up with the debut of the Suicide Squad trailer." (via ComicBookMovie)

Smith, who has already seen the new Suicide Squad trailer, shared his thoughts on how David Ayer's supervillain team-up flick will surprise everyone. "I think this is their Guardians of the Galaxy. It's going to be a sneak f***king stealth hit."

Here's the official description of the upcoming TV special on DC films:
