The poster announcement from Ayer also confirms the timing of the new trailer on Tuesday, January 19th as part of a special airing on the CW. First up, DC’s Legends of Tomorrow: Their Time is Now will air at 9 p.m. ET, and will give fans a look at the new series. Then, the focus will shift to DC’s movie properties, with Kevin Smith and DC Comics CCO Geoff Johns hosting DC Films Presents: Dawn of the Justice League, which will go behind-the-scenes of Suicide Squad, and likely Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, and Wonder Woman as well).
