Superman Sneak Peek: Krypto, Robots And Fortress Of Solitude

Welcome to the Fortress of Solitude.

During Warner Bros. presentation at CinemaCon, James Gunn unveiled a first look at Superman, which has now made its way online. The nearly five-minute footage opens similarly to the initial teaser, featuring a weary Superman (played by David Corenswet) imploring Krypto the Dog to return him home. This new preview offers fans their first glimpse of the Fortress of Solitude, where a cadre of Kryptonian robots utilizes solar energy to mend his wounds, with Alan Tudyk lending his voice to Robot 4.

This preview also dives deeper into the cast of Superman, showcasing characters like Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan), Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult), Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced), Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi), Metamorpho (Anthony Carrigan), and Guy Gardner (Nathan Fillion).

Superman features a talented cast, including Skyler Gisondo, Sara Sampaio, María Gabriela de Faría, Wendell Pierce, Pruitt Taylor Vince, and Neva Howell.

James Gunn writes and directs Superman, marking the inception of the new DC Universe’s feature films. He is set to produce alongside Peter Safran, co-CEO of DC Studios, with executive producers Nikolas Korda, Chantal Nong Vo, and Lars Winthe.
