The <a class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YqdAEdkHrwo\" data-i13n=\"cpos:1;pos:1\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:new Supergirl teaser;cpos:1;pos:1;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">new Supergirl teaser<\/a> starring House of the Dragon and Sirens alum Milly Alcock just dropped, and it presents a very different type of hero than Clark Kent from James Gunn\u2019s 2025 Superman.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The teaser opens on Krypto the Superdog,\u00a0who previously helped save the day with Superman (David Corenswet), breaking a glass bottle and peeing on a newspaper. That noise wakes up\u00a0 Supergirl, aka Kara Zor-El, who\u2019s asleep in bed with sunglasses half on. She doesn\u2019t appear to be in a rush to get up. Instead, she compliments Krypto for at least peeing mostly on the paper \u201cthis time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Kara appears to spend her nights getting drunk alone. In one moment from the trailer, with Krypto by her side, she makes a toast with a flaming shot glass, declaring that 23 will be the best year yet. \u201cLet\u2019s be honest babe, it\u2019s not a very high bar to clear,\u201d she says.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Kara\u2019s nights of lonely debauchery seemingly come to an end when she meets Ruthye Marye Knoll, a young girl and warrior played by Eve Ridley, who needs Kara\u2019s help. It isn\u2019t long before Kara and Ruthye face off against some of the galaxy\u2019s most dangerous foes, including Lobo, played by Jason Momoa.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Alcock first appeared as Kara at the end of Superman, when she came to pick up Krypto from Superman\u2019s lair after partying through the galaxy. Kara and Superman may be cousins, but don\u2019t expect the warm and fuzzy attitude that fans got from Corenswet\u2019s hero. As Kara says in the trailer, \u201cHe sees the good in everyone. And I see the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Movie poster with Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El against an apparently spray-painted Superman logo, below DC Studios logo and next to words: Truth.

He was an infant adopted by incredibly loving parents. She grew up and watched every single person around her that she loved die in a horrible way. She&#8217;s bitter and she&#8217;s jaded and she&#8217;s messed up, and that&#8217;s where we start with her.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Supergirl flies into theaters on June 26, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Supergirl is here to save the world.
