Warner Bros. Animation has confirmed that this weekend’s DC FanDome event will host the world premiere of Superman: Man of Tomorrow.
The film stars Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Darren Criss as Daily Planet intern Clark Kent who, working alongside reporter Lois Lane (Alexandra Daddario), secretly wields his alien powers of flight, super-strength and x-ray vision in the battle for good.
But there’s even greater trouble on the horizon. Follow the budding hero as he engages in bloody battles with intergalactic bounty hunter Lobo (Ryan Hurst) and fights for his life to halt the attack of power-hungry alien Parasite (Brett Dalton). The world will learn about Superman … but first, Superman must save the world!
The film will screen at 16:25PST Saturday / 00:15 BTS Sunday as part of the FanDome event. The screening itself will take place in the Kandor hall of the WatchVerse portion of the event.
Following the 90min premiere, members of the cast including Criss, Dalton and Hurst alongside Iké Amadi with supervising producer Butch Lukic, director Chris Palmer and screenwriter Tim Sheridan will sit down for a 50min panel discussing the movie.
