Super-Pets pays homage to Iron Man, Rocky

Warner Bros. released a new trailer for DC League of Super-Pets. The animated film is out May 18, 2022, internationally and May 20 in North America.

Superman’s dog, Krypto (Dwayne Johnson) has the same powers his owner does. When Lex Luthor (Marc Maron) kidnaps Superman, Krypto teams up with other super-powered animals to save him.

When the team of animals mounts up, the trailer plays “Eye of the Tiger,” the song from the Rocky movies. The Super-Pets also include Ace (Kevin Hart), an indestructible dog, Merton (Natasha Lyonne), a superfast turtle and Chip (Diego Luna), a squirrel who can shoot electricity and many more. Kate McKinnon, Thomas Middleditch, Ben Schwartz and Keanu Reeves also lend their voices.
