When Warner Bros. Pictures first announced their animated arm (WB Animation) was tackling another beloved chapter from DC Comics, we were intrigued. The Super Pets, animals exhibiting metahuman (and more) abilities, have been around in the funny papers for decades. Think of Krypto, Superman’s faithful doggo, and you’ll get the idea.
The first trailer for the project arrived this morning, and features John Krasinski as Superman, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson as Krypto. Keanu Reeves, Diego Luna, Natasha Lyonne, Kate McKinnon, and Vanessa Bayer are also voicing characters. We do know that Kevin Hart will be playing Ace the Bat-Hound, and that Marc Maron will be voicing Lex Luthor.
“DC Super Pets” (aka “DC League of Super Pets“) is set to hit theaters in May of 2022.
Check out the trailer:
Mary Anne Butler
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
