Superman | Sneak Peek

Welcome to the Fortress of Solitude.

During Warner Bros. CinemaCon presentation, James Gunn shared a sneak peek of Superman, which has now been released online. The nearly five-minute video begins like the first teaser trailer, with a battered Superman (David Corenswet) begging Krypto the Dog to take him home. This time, fans get their first taste of the Fortress of Solitude, where Superman is greeted by a fleet of Kryptonian robots who use the sun to heal his injuries. Alan Tudyk is the voice of Robot 4.

The sneak peek also featured longer looks at Superman‘s ensemble, notably Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan), Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult), Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced), Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi), Metamorpho (Anthony Carrigan), and Guy Gardner (Nathan Fillion).

Directed by Craig Gillespie, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow is dated for June 26, 2026.

After Supergirl comes Clayface, a body horror movie about a B-level actor who injects himself with a substance that turns his body into clay, allowing him to reshape his face and form. James Watkins will direct from a screenplay by Mike Flanagan. Clayface opens in theaters on September 11, 2025.
