The very first trailer for Syfy’s long-awaited Superman prequel series, Krypton, has hit the web!! The footage gives us the first look at Superman’s grandfather, who began the legendary house of El on the planet of Krypton, and by the looks of it, the rumors of it tying directly into the DCEU may actually hold some weight.
Syfy’s Krypton, the much-anticipated Superman prequel set two generations before the destruction of the legendary Man of Steel’s home planet, will follow Superman’s grandfather — whose House of El was ostracized and shamed — as he fights to redeem his family’s honor and save his beloved world from chaos.

The pilot teleplay and story is written by David S. Goyer & Ian Goldberg (Once Upon a Time, Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles). Krypton will be produced by Warner Horizon Television and is based on characters created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, published by DC Comics.
