Lex Luthor Is Out To Kill Clark Kent And His Entire Family In Epic New SUPERMAN Trailer As Tickets Go On Sale

The summer of Superman rolls on, and a new trailer for the movie has just been released as tickets finally go on sale. Similar to The Fantastic Four: First Steps, many ticketing websites are crashing due to high demand from fans. 

This latest preview is packed with never-before-seen footage as Lex Luthor vows to kill Superman, his reporter friend, and whoever it was that raised an alien on Earth. The villain doesn't know the Man of Steel's secret identity, but the stakes are still suitably high.

There's plenty of action and lots of unique shots of Superman in flight and punching the teeth out of a bad guy's mouth. It also looks like he'll butt heads with Green Lantern Corps member Guy Gardner.

The trailer ends by showing off Superman's Heat Vision. After previous sneak peeks focused more on the other superheroes and supporting cast, it's great to hear David Corenswet talk a little more and show what this version of Kal-El is capable of.

It's hard to pick fault with this trailer for Superman, though some of the special effects are slightly lacking (those teeth look a little cartoonish). Warner Bros.' DC movies have never been quite as polished as those from Marvel Studios, but there's nothing too glaring. 

Watch the epic new trailer for Superman in the players below.

Superman, DC Studios' first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from Warner Bros. Pictures.

In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.  

The movie stars David Corenswet in the dual role of Superman/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.

Also appearing are Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Skyler Gisondo, Sara Sampaio, María Gabriela de Faría, Wendell Pierce, Alan Tudyk, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Neva Howell, and Milly Alcock.

Superman arrives in theaters on July 11, 2025.

@NonPlayerC - They have SO MUCH work to do if they're going to get that CGI up to snuff by July.

@NonPlayerC - superman's line with mr. terrific is very much like starlord. nevertheless i dig this one.

@TheNewYorker - yeah I had a double take on that lol

@Lisa89 - Im just less excited about the casting from this trailer. It looks like Corenswet will bring the hopefulness to superman but he seems to be lacking any intimidation which I prefer super to strike a balance between the two, maybe just a commanding presence. And Lex also doesn't seem intimidating and looks like he's just gonna be frustrated and throwing tantrums the whole time. Just a trailer I know, hoping its good

@Gabimaru - That’s ‘cause Gunn wrote this for Pratt, but WB told him to get fuсking real.

NonPlayerC - 6/11/2025, 12:59 PM
@Gabimaru - Yeah, it is like a starlord joke, it just doesn't strike me as superman. I think I model my favorite superman from the old cartoon and justice league cartoon. I know he's written as being jokey or not depending on the comic writer but I prefer more of a dad joke humor from superman. He just seems unsure of himself here

@NonPlayerC - I’ve got all ten fingers crossed, but that new teaser is the worst piece of marketing yet.

Omg the action looks goofy af 😅

Some of the scenes look good though.

@JurassicClunge -

This trailer put me probably 5 steps back as far as my optimism goes. Some of that looks and sounds awful, that scene of him flying at the very end looks wretched.
I don't think I'll ever be fully sold on Hoult as Luthor either to be honest, he's about as unimposing of an actor that I can think of.

I'm still going the course thinking this is a movie I'll like, but not a movie I'm going to love.

JurassicClunge - 6/11/2025, 1:19 PM
@TrentCrimm - I honestly thought hoult would sound more imposing due to his time acting as beast but he sounds near Zuckerberg levels of soft 😅

And that last flying shot looks absolutely terrible like he's plastic man or something 😭

@TrentCrimm - Dang man, me too. I was so pumped for this movie, but this trailer was horrendous! I finally agree with the people who have been saving it looks cheap. The CGI looked horrible. I was OK with Hoult up until now, but those line readings in this trailer were really bad. WTF. Goofy CGI action and oversaturated color...crap. I wish I wouldnt have watched that. I guess it means I go in with lower expectations now. Its frustrating how they use CGI for such mundane stuff. Like even that shot of the people in that desert warzone looked so fake. Why not just go shoot it in a desert?

@TrentCrimm - That last shot with the funny eyes... how did they ever convince us that wasn't CG? This is like early '00s levels of bad. Like the final fight in Blade II or Daredevil swinging around the city in 2003.
TrentCrimm
TrentCrimm - 6/11/2025, 7:02 PM
@JurassicClunge -

Hearing him speak in this trailer is what really solidified it for me, I genuinely do like Hoult as an actor but he's just not Lex for me.

@ObserverIO

I dunno man it kinda feels like Gunns trying to recreate some comic panel artistic flair, and it just doesn't work. I think I just have to chalk it up to I don't like how he films characters flying.

@Shivermetimbers - Agreed.
The more I see of this, the worse it gets.
The cgi looks cartoony and bad on The Flash level.
This looks terrible.

A LOT of guys who doubted this movie will have egg on their faces come July 11th.

The rest will just be in denial.

@Goldboink - This is what a lot of fanboys don’t get. The GA will love this.

They don’t care about the collar or “too lose of a suit”.

They will love Krypto.

They prefer humor and optimistic tones.

They’ll love the Kaiju and all the fun characters.

Certainly some stuff I’m not liking in what I see, but I have a feeling this is going to perform well with the GA.

1% of the revenue will come from people who actively read comics. Krypto, the suit, the humorous quip in the middle of a battle, the hopeful tone. They don't care about cannon or what constitutes a metahuman. They want some excitement, a few laughs, the good guys winning in the end and all of that.

@Goldboink - Sentimentality seems to be returning as a cultural desire and cynicism seems to be on the outs. I imagine that we will see fewer popular deconstructed heroes, anti-heroes, morally grey heroes, and such. Given that the real world is very crazy and stressful these days, it just seems like people want their entertainment to be hopeful, good and fun again.

The Batman v Superman thing, but for real. In good times BAtman is ascendent and in bad times Supes is. It goes all the way back to WWII. Superman was king until the 50's and then Batman became more popuar during that "idyllic period".

The more I see, the more Hoult is growing on me as Lex. I think he's gonna kill it in the role. On another note, I'm really liking how chaotic Gunn makes Superman flying looks. It just looks more intense than previous Superman films.
McMurdo
McMurdo - 6/11/2025, 2:15 PM
@ModHaterSLADE - Gunn made him more evil than I thought he would. The dude's a maniac.

@McMurdo - Yeah, not even comic Lex usually goes out of his way to threaten Superman's adopted parents.

The CGI needs a lot of work. While some shots look beautifully filmed, The CGI isn't consistent with other shots in this new trailer.
