Justice League: Crisis on Two Earths is an original direct-to-video animated film set to be released on February 23, 2010. It is based on the abandoned direct to video feature, Justice League: Worlds Collide (originally titled Justice League: Fearful Symmetry)[citation needed], which was intended as a bridge between the then-concluding Justice League series and its then forthcoming sequel series Justice League Unlimited. The movie project was shelved because of insufficient staff to produce the movie and the TV show simultaneously.[2] Crisis on Two Earths was reworked from the Worlds Collide script to remove references to the TV series' continuity.[3]
The premise of "Crisis on Two Earths" is borrowed from the 1964 Gardner Fox-scripted Justice League of America #29-30 as well as the 1999 Grant Morrison JLA: Earth 2 graphic novel, where a heroic Lex Luthor from an alternate universe coming to the Justice League's universe for help against the Crime Syndicate, but it is not an adaptation of that story. The film is the seventh in the line of the DC Universe Original Animated Movies line released by Warner Premiere and Warner Bros. Animation. The film is not a DCAU production in any way, nor is it connected in any way to the previously released Justice League animated film; Justice League: The New Frontier.
Plot
A heroic version of Lex Luthor (Chris Noth) from an alternate universe appears to recruit the Justice League to help save his Earth from the Crime Syndicate, an evil version of the League. What ensues is the ultimate battle of good versus evil in a war that threatens both planets and, through a devious plan launched by Batman's counterpart Owlman, puts the balance of all existence in peril.[4]
