DC Comics has spent years featuring A-list teams like the Teen Titans and Justice League through different extended media like movies and cartoons. Be that as it may, it’s just reasonably recently they’ve placed focus around less popular teams like the old school Justice Society and the modern Legion of Superheroes, the latter of which will have its own animated film showing up soon.
In the week, the Legion of Super Heroes film is set in a similar universe as 2020’s Superman: World of Tomorrow and last year’s Batman: Long Halloween. At the point when Supergirl (The Winchesters’ Meg Donnelly) appears and experiences difficulty making it on Earth, Superman (Darren Criss) selects to send her to the 31st century to learn how to be a legend at the Legion Academy. During her time at the Academy, a group called the Dark Circle goes hunting for a weapon said to be held in the Academy’s vault.
Beyond Donelly and Criss, fellow cast individuals incorporate, Robbie Daymond as Timberwolf, Harry Shum Jr. as Brainiac 5, Zeno Robinson as Invisible Kid, Ben Diskin as Arms Fall Off Boy, and Gideon Adlan as Phantom Girl. Daymond, Robinson, and Diskin pull double duty as respective Brainiacs 2, 3, and 4, while Darin De Paul will voice the original Brainiac. It’ll likewise highlight a returning Jensen Ackles as Batman and Matt Bomer as the Flash, the latter of whom appeared in Justice Society: World War II from 2021.
The Legion have been a frequent DC Comics fixture since Otto Binder and Al Plastino made the team in 1958. As far as an overall team is concerned, the Legion is perhaps best associated with appearing in the DCAU’s Superman and Justice League animated series, or their featuring in their unconnected Legion series on KidsWB back in 2006.
In any case, the most notable individuals like Saturn Girl, Chameleon Boy or Brainiac 5, have showed up in various shows and movies in recent years like Young Justice: Phantoms and Supergirl, either separately or in small groups. In the majority of these occasions, the team has had their story connected to a Super — typically the Man of Steel himself, yet it’s all the more as of late been Supergirl or the Conner Kent version of Superboy.
Expect the Legion of Super-Heroes film to release soon.
