DC Studios has released a new Superman trailer revealing three minutes of the upcoming movie.
The James Gunn-directed film, out July 11, 2025, has an extensive supporting cast of superheroes and supervillains, and we get a better look at those characters in this trailer. We see Nathan Fillion in action as Guy Gardner / Green Lantern, batting enemies away with a flick of his hand, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, and our best look yet at The Engineer, played by María Gabriela de Faría.
We now know it’s The Engineer who destroys the robots who care for Superman in the Fortress of Solitude, including, presumably, Kelex. (In a previous trailer we saw a distraught Superman cradle Kelex after a battle.)
We also see Krypto the Superdog perform a flying punch at The Engineer during the battle. Clearly Krypto isn’t afraid to get his paws dirty when it comes to fighting bad guys.
We also see Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) and Ultraman in action. There’s a lot more of Edi Gathegi’s Mister Terrific and Anthony Carrigan’s Rex Mason / Metamorpho, too. The Hammer of Boravia, who was revealed in yesterday’s trailer teaser, appears as expected in the full trailer (the brand new character created by Gunn for this movie is thought to be Ultraman in disguse).
Clark Kent and Lois Lane’s relationship is front and centre, with Lois interviewing Clark in Superman mode. It looks like the interview ends up in a row as the pair argue over the ethics of Superman’s controversial intervention in a war on foreign soil (“I wasn’t representing anyone except for me… and doing good!”). The Hammer of Boravia attacks Downtown Metropolis in response to Superman’s actions in the country.
In another shot, seemingly taken from the battle with The Hammer of Boravia, a member of the public helps Superman out of a hole in the ground. This contrasts with other shots we’ve seen of the public screaming at Superman and even throwing objects at him.
