A new daily news show focused on all things DC was announced today, including availability for viewing. DC Daily will be available on the DC UNIVERSE service, with select segments also available for viewing at no cost on additional online channels. DC Daily will offer fans entertaining news and insights, exclusive guest appearances, interviews and panel discussions with some of the most knowledgeable voices in the DC universe.
A live stream will kickoff the new program at 4:30pm PST on August 29, 2018. Kevin Smith, filmmaker, actor and comic book author, will host the inaugural live stream event and introduce fans to the format, sets and exclusive content that will be seen on DC Daily. He will also provide fans with an in-depth look at the DC UNIVERSE digital subscription service. Fans can tune-in to the live stream at Facebook, Twitch and YouTube to hear breaking news about the upcoming DC UNIVERSE service launch.
DC Daily headlines will be available to all DC fans on YouTube at www.youtube.com/dc and on the DC UNIVERSE service when the new service launches in Fall 2018. DC UNIVERSE members will be able to see an exclusive, expanded version of the show that provides additional content and behind-the-scenes access.
