Warner Brothers Home Entertainment has released the first trailer for their next DC Comics animated feature The Death of Superman.

IGN has the exclusive first trailer and it seems to take place in the same cinematic universe as Justice League: War and Justice League: Throne of Atlantis. The Death of Superman reunites the all-star cast and adds some new faces to the mix as well. The film looks like it is going to stay close to the source material and this is supposedly part one of a two part story with the second story titled “Reign of the Supermen”, which will be released in 2019.

The all-star cast is led by Jerry O’Connell, Rebecca Romijn and Rainn Wilson as the voices of Superman, Lois Lane and Lex Luthor, respectively. Sam Liu co-directs with Jake Castorena. Coming to Blu-ray, DVD and Digital summer 2018.

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.
