THE DEATH OF SUPERMAN Sneak Peek Reveals The First Footage From DC's Upcoming Animated Feature
After revealing the cast for their upcoming animated film, DC has released a sneak peek for The Death of Superman, which gives us a first glimpse of some action-packed footage. Check it out after the jump.
2007 saw the release of Superman: Doomsday, which adapted Dan Jurgen’s iconic The Death of Superman comic, and this year will see the release of another animated film adapting that iconic story. Now, following a recent cast reveal, a brand new sneak peek for The Death of Superman film has been released, which showcases plenty of footage from the upcoming adaptation and features some of the crew discussing the story and characters.
For those already familiar with the comic book story, the sneak peek doesn't reveal anything surprising and showcases what fans expect to see, such as plenty of action between the Man of Steel and Doomsday. There are even some shots of other Justice League members, including Batman and Wonder Woman, getting in on the action.
The upcoming film, like the comics before it, is part of a two-part story with the second half set to be titled Reign of The Supermen.
"When a hulking monster emerges from an underground resting place and begins a mindless rampage, the Justice League is quickly called in to stop the colossal force of nature. But it soon becomes apparent that only Superman can stand against the monstrosity that has been nicknamed Doomsday. Battling their way throughout America, the two fight to a standstill as they reach the heart of Metropolis. Going punch for punch, Superman finally ends the threat of Doomsday as he throws one last punch and collapses forever."
