SUPERMAN: MAN OF TOMORROW Premiere No Longer Taking Place During DC FANDOME On Saturday

There's some disappointing news for those of you who were looking forward to the Superman: Man of Tomorrow premiere this Saturday, as it's been confirmed that it's been scrapped after scheduling changes...

Yesterday, DC Entertainment made some big changes to the DC FanDome schedule, and while it's essentially just been split across two days, there's definitely one noteworthy absence. 

The premiere of Superman: Man of Tomorrow was supposed to take place on Saturday, with fans going to be able to watch the movie online for free. It didn't make a lot of sense as that would mean Warner Bros. was giving it away for nothing and opening the door to piracy; now, it seems they've thought better of it and scrapped plans for anything related to the animated feature on Saturday.

A number of stars, the writer, and director were all supposed to take part in a panel, but that hasn't been rescheduled, either, so there's a chance we won't end up getting to see it at all. 

In Superman: Man of Tomorrow"Daily Planet intern Clark Kent takes learning-on-the-job to new extremes when Lobo and Parasite set their sights on Metropolis."

The impressive voice cast sees Darren Criss (Hollywood) play Clark Kent, while Star Trek's Zachary Quinto will voice the villainous Lex Luthor. True Detective's Alexandra Daddario stars as Lois Lane, Brett Dalton (Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.) is Lobo, Ryan Hurst (The Walking Dead) takes on Parasite, and Ike Amadi (Mortal Kombat Legends: Scorpion's Revenge) is Martian Manhunter. Piotr Michael voices Perry White, while Jonathan and Martha Kent are played by Neil Flynn and Bellamy Young.

It's a shame the premiere is no longer taking place, but, on the plus side, the movie is set to be released on Digital HD on August 23rd and on Blu-ray and 4K UHD on September 8th.

Just don't cancel the Batman movie and game panels and we're good.

@RageDriver2401 - Although the Rocksteady panel may not be assured considering those really concerning allegations against them...

@Doomsday8888 - I hope, if nothing else, this improves the conditions over there.

@tmp3 - yea. Rocksteady attempted some damage control yesterday by releasing an anonymous letter in support of the organisation, but I don't buy it.

@Doomsday8888 - really sad situation with what went down at Rocksteady. Despite what they said yesterday I'm inclined to believe the ex-employee who actually came out with that detailed video. That was very ballsy, and earns her more credibility than the anonymous letter Rocksteady released.

I mean, at least this one kind of makes sense. Giving away a brand new product for free isn't the best business practice, but how'd it get greenlit in the first place? Did no one consider that before they released the first schedule?

Eh it comes out on digital the day after.

It's understandable. You wouldn't want a Superman that's openly using his powers during the day and protecting a city to get in the way of you main attractions.

What the hell is going on with this? They can't get their Fandome that they've been promoting for since it was announced on track? I thought this was organized well in advance. Was it actually just thrown together?

Let's be real, whether it's being screened online or released on digital, it's going to be pirated regardless. Though, screening it online would have certainly made it easier for pirating, that's for sure.

So the voice cast will be or not there to talk about it or not? They could tease a final sneak peak before it becomes available for everyone the next day.

This was the one thing I was surprised to see in the line up. Totally makes sense why they decided against it though.
