Amazon announced also a special offer for Prime members to see Superman a few days before its July 11 release, with early screenings on July 8.
With the trailer’s debut, it was also announced by Fandango that the Prime early screenings were the ticket retailer’s best first-day ticket pre-sales of 2025.
Fans have not been hesitating to scoop up their own tickets for the July 11 release, with many taking to social media to show off their ticket purchases.
Early box office projections have already been quite huge, with early numbers suggesting it could open between $154 million and $175 million.
If this record pace continues, it could be even higher, as fans have continued to express their excitement on social media all day on Wednesday after the new trailer dropped.
The trailer begins with a massive skyscraper falling and Superman swooping in to stop it from hitting the ground as we hear Lex Luthor (Nicholas) detailing his plan to destroy the Man of Steel.
Luthor and his minions are seen destroying Superman’s Fortress of Solitude, while we also see Superman/Clark Kent making out with Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnan), along with shots of his parents (Pruitt Taylor Vince, Neva Howell).
Droids are seeing picking up a battered Superman and taking him to the Fortress, along with shots of Superman in battle with Luthor’s various henchfolk.
One particular shot fans have been cheering for shows Superman and his beloved dog Krypto the Superdog battle an enemy, literally punching his teeth out and hitting the camera lens, breaking the proverbial ‘fourth wall.’
Superman is also see clashing with the abrasive Green Lantern character Guy Gardner (Nathan Fillion), who challenges him to, ‘make a move, big blue.’
More shots show people all over the world rooting for Superman, which infuriates Luthor, who says, ‘They chose him, let them die.’
