2015? I could have sworn secret wars was a much older story arc.
There are two storylines: the 1984 one and the 2015 one. In the former all the superheroes are gathered together and made to fight, in the latter alternate realities collapse until there is just one world with various mash-up characters and unlikely alliances. It's the 2015 one they are going with in the film.
Ah gotcha, thank you.
The old retelling trick.
Variations on a theme. Other that the title and some broad themes, they are very different stories.
