The new Supergirl movie trailer has sparked excitement among fans, particularly with the appearance of Jason Momoa as Lobo and hints of ties into the wider DC Universe. However, it's also drawn comparisons to the fast-paced action sequences of John Wick, with some viewers questioning whether Supergirl can take such a serious storyline seriously.

The film will see Milly Alcock bring a fresh perspective to Superman's biological cousin Kara Zor-El. While some are enthusiastic about the film’s faithfulness to Tom King's original comic, with its darker themes of trauma and revenge, others are concerned that it might be taking on too much of a 'nihilistic tone'.

Supergirl’s mission to save her dog Krypto after he is shot by the ruthless space pirate Krem of the Yellow Hills has led some to draw parallels with John Wick. The trailer's fast-paced action sequences have raised questions about whether the movie can balance its comic book origins with more serious themes.

'Superman: Positivity. Supergirl: PTSD,' one fan writes, highlighting a perception that the film is trying too hard to be edgy. Others suggest that the cosmic setting might make it feel like a Guardians of the Galaxy-style space adventure. Regardless of how fans interpret it, Supergirl will hit cinemas on 26 June.
