5 Why Superman Is Bloody And Beaten Up Superman's Greatest Enemy Is Established

Intriguingly, Superman"s trailer opens with the titular character crashing into the snow. He is shown beaten, bloodied, and dejected, calling to his aforementioned animal companion for help. Naturally, the biggest question is what caused Superman to be placed in such a vulnerable position.
The answer to this cannot be anything other than Lex Luthor. Luthor is the iconic arch nemesis of Superman from DC Comics and was confirmed to be part of the upcoming DCU movie before anyone else other than the titular character. Nicholas Hoult was cast as Lex, with the Superman trailer debuting the first official look at the character. It is highly likely that this scene from the opening of the Superman trailer comes after a clash between Superman and Lex, the latter of whom has been confirmed to loathe the former entirely by director James Gunn.
4 Clark Kent's Human Persona And Life Are Revealed The Human Is Just As Important As The Superhuman Close Thankfully, the Superman trailer highlights elements of Superman"s civilian life as Clark Kent. Gunn has made it no secret that he understands how important the life of Clark and the people around him are to the overall story of Superman, with Superman"s trailer making that easily evident. The trailer shows David Corenswet as Clark Kent, entering the Daily Planet as his bumbling personality shines through. This is followed by shared looks between Clark and Rachel Brosnahan"s Lois Lane, hinting at their central relationship.
Later, Clark is shown sitting next to Jonathan Kent, his adoptive father, at the Kent family farm. This is a vastly important part of Clark"s life, and it is a relief that Superman is showing this just as much as it is highlighting his otherworldly strength, speed, and power. Not only is this important to the proper depiction of the iconic hero, but it proves that Superman will have a strong emotional core thanks to Clark"s family and friends.
3 Krypto The Superdog's Powers Explained Kal-El Was Not The Only Exile From Krypton Close One of the more exciting reveals about Superman before the trailer"s release was the inclusion of Krypto the Superdog. The trailer for SUperman debuts the character, who runs swiftly to Clark"s aid as soon as he is called. Krypto is shown taking a wounder Superman home, running across the ice at supersonic speed to help his best friend. Beyond this, Superman will likely debut Krypto"s other powers, from his ability to fly to his strength, durability, laser vision, and super-breath.
2 All DC Villains In The Superman Trailer Explained Luthor Is Just The Tip Of The Iceberg Close Although Lex Luthor is undoubtedly the main villainous reveal in Superman"s teaser trailer, several other antagonists make appearances. One of these is likely linked to Lex and was first highlighted in the first official look at Corenswet"s Superman released by James Gunn earlier in 2024. This comes in the form of a giant eye-like machine floating above Metropolis, shooting a laser towards the ground. This machine is spotted several times in Superman"s trailer and will likely be something Kal-El has to stop at some point in the film.
Beyond that, there is a kaiju in Superman"s teaser trailer. The kaiju looks akin to a giant worm and can breathe fire, with Superman shown to endure the breath before flying upwards towards the sun. Evidently, Lex Luthor is not the only villainous presence Superman will have to contend with in the 2025 movie.
1 Who Are The Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, & Mister Terrific? The DCU's Other Heroes Explained Close As has long been known, Superman is not the only hero who is set to appear in the movie. Isabela Merced, Nathan Fillion, Edi Gathegi, and Anthony Carrigan were all cast in Superman as other heroes in the DCU, and make their debuts in the film"s teaser trailer. Isabela Merced can be seen flying through the skies as Hawkgirl, while Nathan Fillion"s Green Lantern, Guy Gardner, is shown shooting a beam of green light at a crowd harassing Superman.
Edi Gathegi"s Mr. Terrific can be seen battling Superman at one point, showing how the film will outline the differences between the DCU"s different heroes. Later in the trailer, Mr. Terrific"s robotic T-Spheres are shown shielding him from unfriendly fire. A brief shot of Carrigan is spotted in the trailer, with Metamorpho"s unique physicality being highlighted.
