DC Studios has released a sneak peek of Superman, in which the historical personification of truth, justice, and the American way plummets to the ground, beat up, bloody, and wheezing for help. It feels apt.
Superman stars David Corenswet as the titular Man of Steel, who’s feeling markedly less steel-like than usual in this new clip (which we saw hints of in a previous trailer). Fortunately, his canine companion Krypto is just a whistle away, and willing to literally drag Supes to safety — though not before getting a few enthusiastic hits in himself. It seems that no matter which planet they come from, there’s little you can do to stop an excited dog from joyfully jumping on their owner.
Directed by James Gunn, the film will also feature Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.
Superman arrives in theatres July 11.
