Moreau, and executive producer Sam Register. Mary Ellen Thomas, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Senior Vice President, Originals, Animation, and Film Marketing, stated:
Superman: Man of Tomorrow is an inspiring retelling of the DC Universe Movies’ backstory for The Man of Steel, taking the audience to his early days as an intern at the Daily Planet – and his beginnings as a learning-on-the-job DC Super Hero. Darren Criss and Zachary Quinto have wholeheartedly embraced their roles as Superman and Lex Luthor for this film, and the end result is a special addition to canon of films that every Superman fan will want to add to their collection.”
The film will come to digital on August 23, 2020. It will arrive on September 8th, 2020 in a 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray Combo Pack and on Blu-Ray Combo Pack.
