Produced by Warner Bros. Animation and DC, the feature-length animated film will be released by Warner Bros. Home Entertainment on Digital starting 23 August 2020, and on 4K Ultra HD Combo Pack and Blu-ray Combo Pack on 8 September 2020. Here’s a new clip from it…

It’s the dawn of a new age of heroes, and Metropolis has
just met its first. But as Daily Planet intern Clark Kent –
working alongside reporter Lois Lane – secretly wields his alien powers of
flight, super-strength and x-ray vision in the battle for good, there’s even
greater trouble on the horizon. Follow the budding hero as he engages in bloody
battles with intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo and fights for his life to halt
the attack of power-hungry alien Parasite. The world will learn about
Superman … but first, Superman must save the world!
Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Darren
Criss (Glee, American Crime Story: The Assassination of Gianni Versace) and
Emmy nominee Zachary Quinto (Star Trek franchise, Heroes) lead a
star-studded cast as the voices of Superman/Clark Kent and Lex Luthor, respectively.
The cast also includes Alexandra Daddario (San Andreas, Baywatch, All My
Children) as Lois Lane, Brett Dalton (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) as
Parasite/Rudy Jones, Ryan Hurst (The Walking Dead, Sons of Anarchy, Remember
the Titans) as Lobo, Ike Amadi (Mass Effect 3, Mortal Kombat Legends:
Scorpion’s Revenge) as Martian Manhunter, Neil Flynn (The Middle, Scrubs)
as Jonathan Kent, Bellamy Young (Scandal, Prodigal Son) as Martha Kent, Cristina
Milizia (DC Super Hero Girls) as Maya, Petey & Kaylie, Eugene Byrd (Bones,

Bullwinkle) as Perry White, as well as Cissy Jones (Firewatch) and
David Chen (Gotham).
Superman: Man of Tomorrow introduces a new producing vision to the DC Universe Movies series, which now numbers 41 films over its 13 years of existence. Supervising Producer Butch Lukic has a rich pedigree in DC animated productions, serving as producer on Constantine: City of Demons, Justice League Action and the Batman Unlimited franchise, as well as directing episodes of Justice League, Batman Beyond and Beware the Batman. Lukic brings a new visual aesthetic to Superman: Man of Tomorrow that departs from the animation styles – of previous producers Bruce Timm (23 films) and James Tucker (17 films) – thus far represented in the DC Universe Movies.
Chris Palmer (Voltron: Legendary Defender) is the director of Superman: Man of Tomorrow, utilizing a script by Tim Sheridan (The Death of Superman). Producers are Jim Krieg (Batman: Gotham by Gaslight) and Kimberly S. Moreau (Batman vs. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles). Executive Producer is Sam Register.
“Superman: Man of Tomorrow is an inspiring retelling of the DC Universe Movies’ backstory for The Man of Steel, taking the audience to his early days as an intern at the Daily Planet – and his beginnings as a learning-on-the-job DC Super Hero,” said Mary Ellen Thomas, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Senior Vice President, Originals, Animation and Family Marketing. “Darren Criss and Zachary Quinto have wholeheartedly embraced their roles as Superman and Lex Luthor for this film, and the end result is a special addition to canon of films that every Superman fan will want to add to their collection.”
