Last summer, Adult Swim and Warner Bros. Animation introduced fans to a new take on the Man of Steel in My Adventures with Superman. In this anime-inspired reboot, Clark Kent, Lois Lane, and Jimmy Olsen are all aspiring reporters for The Daily Planet. However, Clark wasn’t able to hide his double life as Superman from either Lois or Jimmy for very long. Season 1 ended with the reveal of a Kryptonian warrior eying Earth for an invasion. But in the first trailer for My Adventures with Superman Season 2, Clark and his friends have more immediate problems.
The trailer reveals that a younger version of Lex Luthor is stepping to the forefront and joining forces with Amanda Waller and Sam Lane to target Superman. As a newly minted millionaire, Jimmy attempts to counter Lex’s anti-Superman message. But Jimmy has underestimated just how deeply Lex hates Clark’s alter ego.
Additionally, the trailer confirms that Supergirl will be a part of this series, as Clark discovers that his cousin, Kara Zor-El, also survived the trip from Krypton to Earth. There’s still another Kryptonian gunning for Superman’s adoptive world, but now Clark won’t be facing him alone.
Jack Quaid stars in the series as the voice of Clark Kent/Superman, with Alice Lee as Lois Lane, and Ishmel Sahid as Jimmy Olsen. Max Mittelman is joining the cast this season as Lex Luthor, while Supergirl will be voiced by Kiana Madeira.
My Adventures with Superman Season 2 will have a two-episode premiere on Saturday, May 25 on Adult Swim. New episodes will be available on Max a day after their Adult Swim debut.
