This is supported by the synopsis which reads as follows:
"Fueled by his restored faith in humanity and inspired by Superman’s selfless act, Bruce Wayne enlists the help of his newfound ally, Diana Prince, to face an even greater enemy. Together, Batman and Wonder Woman work quickly to find and recruit a team of metahumans to stand against this newly awakened threat. But despite the formation of this unprecedented league of heroes—Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, Cyborg and The Flash—it may already be too late to save the planet from an assault of catastrophic proportions.
Directed by Zack Snyder, this marks the big screen debut of the Justice League, featuring an all-star lineup: Ben Affleck, Henry Cavill, Gal Gadot, Jason Momoa, Ezra Miller and Ray Fisher."
The assault mentioned above will most likely be from the DC Villain Steppenwolf, who earlier today was confirmed to be the villain of the first Justice League movie. Steppenwolf will no doubt pave the way for Darkseid, his uncle, and all of the classic Darkseid V Justice League stories in the comics. Zack Snyder also confirmed that both movies were intended to be seperate films, and not be split into two parts, from the start.
We also recieved confirmation on the role of Willem Dafoe in the Justice League and Aquaman movies. He will in fact be portraying Nuidis Vulko, Aquaman's advisor and friend. He has a rich history in the comic with Aquaman, even taking control of Atlantis in Aquaman's absence and also leading a rebellion against Aquaman in more recent times

This announcement was a large amount of information to drop at once, and now with only 5 weeks until Suicide Squad releases, the DC PR team will no doubt be trying to focus attention on Suicide Squad and denouncing fears from fans of the DCEU and movies.
