DC Studios dropped a new trailer for Supergirl earlier today, and so far, it seems to have gone a long way in selling sceptical fans on the first DCU movie that won't have James Gunn at the helm.
Most seem to agree that Milly Alcock's take on the Woman of Tomorrow looks fantastic, while Jason Momoa's long-overdue debut as Lobo has many fans crying out for a spin-off. The complaints, meanwhile, are familiar.
Supergirl does seem to be leaning heavily on Krypto's cuteness, and even some extra splashes of colour are struggling to brighten up a relatively murky-looking take on the DCU's cosmos. Then, there's Krem of the Yellow Hills' redesign, which some argue looks like it's based on rejected Ravagar concept art from Guardians of the Galaxy.
Overall, though, Supergirl clearly has the potential to be a fun superhero movie. The comic it's heavily inspired by, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, features many unique moments and unexpected twists. If even some of them have made the cut, those will go a long way in helping this blockbuster stand out from the crowd in a busy summer frame.
Below, you can relive all the biggest moments in the trailer with a huge gallery of 4K screenshots. Offering a closer look at all the movie's leads—including the Maid of Might sitting on the, uh, toilet while she takes Superman's call—there's heaps here to get excited about. That includes a closer look at Krypton and Kara Zor-El's journey to Earth.
"We do really thoroughly investigate Argo [the city where Supergirl was born] and Krypton," filmmaker Craig Gillespie recently said. "It's so fundamental to who she is as a person and what she goes through in her formative years there. It makes you understand why she is where she is with her personality and the self-destructive nature that she has as we meet her at the beginning of the film."
"Trying to build on what her status was on Krypton," he added, "her father being a scientist and in academia and the connections that they had there, which made it interesting in terms of how opulent that world was."
