It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a very good boy! Krypto the Super-Dog is set to make his big screen debut in Warner Bros.’ upcoming animated movie DC League of Super-Pets. And Krypto will be voiced by none other than Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson. The film follows Superman’s dog Krypto, who teams up with a flying cat to stop crime while Supes is on vacation. Jared Stern (The LEGO Batman Movie) will write and direct along with co-director Sam Levine (Penn Zero: Part-Time Hero).
No other casting announcements have been made yet, but you can probably expect an A-list cast to join Johnson. Krypto, created by writer Otto Binder and artist Curt Swan, first appeared in a Superboy story in Adventure Comics #210 (March 1955). Designed as a one-off character, Krypto quickly grew a fan base of his own, because who on Earth doesn’t love dogs?

Krypto was originally Kal-El’s dog, whom Jor-El used to test his rocket that would take Kal-El to Earth (not cool, Jor-El). Krypto’s rocket was knocked off-course, lost for years before eventually landing on Earth where he teamed up with Superboy. Krypto continued to pop up in comics and animated films before landing his own show on the Cartoon Network in 2005. Krypto the Superdog ran for two seasons before cancellation. A live-action Krypto appeared in the series Smallville, as well as DC Universe/HBO Max’s Titans.
This will be Johnson’s second entry into the DC universe, following his starring role as super-villain Black Adam in the film of the same name.
DC League of Super-Pets is set to hit theaters on May 20, 2022.

Let's get into it...let's get involved, people! Check out and listen to the latest musings of Afronerd Radio's Mid Week in Review broadcast airing every Wednesday at 8 p. m. eastern, thanks to the good folks at BTalk 100. The topics to be discussed this (mid) week are: noted actor and rising director, Regina King (One Night in Miami, Watchmen), has been tapped to helm the highly anticipated David Walker penned comic to movie translation of Bitter Root; Controversy hits the vaunted Hollywood Foreign Press Association and The Golden Globes Awards with NBC announcing that they are opting out of broadcasting the show in 2022 due to lack of diversity complaints levied against the HFPA; our impressions of the live-action CB to streaming translation of Jupiter's Legacy now showing at Netflix;
And then those criticisms that are coming in after the Elon Musk episode of Saturday Night Live...specifically, the Michael Che penned "Gen Z" sketch. Was it poking fun of AAVE (African-American Vernacular English) or White appropriation of alleged Black culture and dialect?
Our thoughts about the new Venom: Let There Be Carnage trailer that hit the internets this week:
What if society treated human beings akin to a natural resource in the same vein as iron, coal, and gas? Enter young (chess) master, Tanitoluwa Adewumi, who is striving to become the youngest grandmaster coming from the brink of homelessness;
Just when Dburt thought he was out of anime, Megalo Box: Nomad (and a whole host of other anime titles) pulled him back in; lastly, the "house" of Image does it again-The Good Asian #1 released last week, gives a long overdue POC alternate spin on the detective noir genre.
One thing that Dburt is doing (finally) is investing in cryptocurrency, courtesy of Roundlyx. We would implore our followers to investigate, discern and then explore by using our referral code: afro-87A4BF
