We don\u2019t know much about the next DC Universe movie, Supergirl, but one of its actors has discussed in vague terms what it\u2019s aiming to achieve, and teased that it will clarify the House of El business this year\u2019s Superman set up.<\/p>\n

Warning!<\/strong><\/em> Spoilers for Superman follow:<\/em><\/p>\n

DCU kickstarter Superman switches up the established Superman origin story to present his parents, Jor-El and Lara, as villains of a sort. As Superman learns over the course of the events of the movie, his parents had sent him to Earth not to protect humanity, but to rule over it \u2014 a revelation that sends Kal-El spiraling for a time.<\/p>\n

Some Superman fans were so shocked by this twist on the characters’ motivations that they have speculated that DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn plans to either retcon this plot point, or eventually show the message upon which it is based to be fake or misleading. Gunn has denied this.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Supergirl, however, promises to continue the House of El subplot when it launches June 26, 2026. It will see Milly Alcock\u2019s Kara Zor-El, fresh from her drunken cameo at the end of Superman, celebrate her 21st birthday by traveling across the galaxy with her dog, Krypto. We know Lobo is in the movie, played by Jason Momoa. But we know little else.<\/p>\n

David Krumholtz (Bernard in The Santa Clause franchise), plays Zor-El, Supergirl’s father, and in a recent interview with Nerdtropolis he was of course asked if he could say anything about the movie. Responding, Krumholtz kept his cards close to his chest, but teased a couple of things: Supergirl will closely follow the Woman of Tomorrow comic book, and it will act as the \u201cnext piece of telling the story of Krypton, and sort of further clarifying what the House of El is all about.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very true to the graphic novel that it\u2019s based on, Woman of Tomorrow,\u201d Krumholtz said. \u201cVery true, which is great. Plus Lobo, which I can say. Everybody knows that Jason Momoa is playing Lobo in it. So it\u2019s that comic plus Lobo. What else can I say? I can\u2019t say much, man.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ll just say that I\u2019m thrilled to be sort of the next piece of telling the story of Krypton, and sort of further clarifying what the House of El is all about.\u201d<\/p>\n
