Supergirl is hitting theaters in just a few weeks<\/a>, and with all the trailers<\/a> now accounted for, DC Studios is rolling out the clips. Today we\u2019ve got a look at a key moment in the film that features a certain very well-known character offering some payback for Milly Alcock\u2019s Supergirl popping up in last summer\u2019s Superman.<\/p>\n

This adorable clip, courtesy of Comicbook.com<\/a>, shows the instant Kara Zor-El arrives on Earth, carrying puppy Krypto and speaking not a word of English. Though her cousin, better known as Superman<\/a> (David Corenswet), is there to excitedly greet her, he unfortunately doesn\u2019t know the language of his home planet. (He was raised in Kansas, after all.)<\/p>\n

That makes way for some comedy when Kara\u2019s subtitles make wry commentary on Superman\u2019s cheerful attempts to welcome her\u2014not to mention his underwear-esque superhero get-up\u2014but alas, it cuts off just as we\u2019re seemingly about to see her powers erupt for the first time.<\/p>\n

Superman really, really loves Earth; will Supergirl agree right away, or will her solo movie give her plenty of time to figure out her own feelings?<\/p>\n

Hearing the spoken language of Krypton is very cool, but the real star of this clip is the dog. Adult Krypto was already cute enough; sassy baby Krypto protecting his super-mom is almost too much to take. Presumably that\u2019ll open up a whole new merch stream for DC once Supergirl arrives in theaters on June 26.<\/p>\n
