THE destruction of Krypton has never looked this intimate. DC Studios has unveiled a new Super Bowl trailer for Supergirl offering the first emotionally charged glimpse of Milly Alcock’s Kara ZorEl, not as a fully formed hero, but as a survivor shaped by loss, rage and hard-earned truth. The teaser released during 2026 Super Bowl and Puppy Bowl, introduces audiences to Kara’s life on Krypton before its annihilation, including the moment she meets and adopts Krypto as a puppy.

 

The bond between girl and super-powered dog is positioned as central to the film’s emotional spine, grounding a story that quickly expands into a galaxyspanning pursuit of justice. Unlike her cousin Superman, Kara is presented as deeply conflicted and cynical. “He sees the good in everyone. And I see the truth,” she says in the trailer, now released on the social media handles of Warner Bros. While Superman embodies hope, Supergirl explores what happens when survival comes at a cost. The footage suggests Kara lived through Krypton’s destruction on a floating fragment of the planet, a trauma that continues to shape her worldview.

 

The film is based onTom King and Bilquis Evely’s acclaimed comic series Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow. Its logline teases an “epic, interstellar journey of vengeance and justice” after a ruthless enemy strikes close to home. That enemy is Krem of the Yellow Hills, played by Matthias Schoenaerts. Kara’s mission is triggered by Ruthye Marye Knoll (Eve Ridley), a young alien girl who recruits Supergirl to help avenge her father’s murder. Supergirl is scheduled for release on June 26, 2026.
