DC Studios Is Finally Making a ‘Mister Miracle' Animated Series
Warner Bros. Animation and DC Studios have announced that the next adult animated series will be Mister Miracle. According to Deadline, which initially broke the news, Mister Miracle comic book writer Tom King (who is also producing HBO's Lanterns TV series) will serve as the showrunner and executive producer of the animated series. While no release date or cast announcements were coupled with the Mister Miracle's announcement, the show, which follows the eponymous DC character, will be based on the award-winning 2017 comic book series, created by King and artist Mitch Gerads. According to the logline for the series, Scott Free (AKA Mister Miracle) is a renowned celebrity known best for being the greatest escape artist alive. His latest stunt is to see if he can escape death itself. Naturally, things go 'horribly wrong' in Scott's 'perfect life,' he's built with his big, strong warrior wife, Big Barda. That thing being a war between their home worlds of Apokolips and New Genesis thanks to Mister Miracle's adoptive father Darkseid (yikes) seemingly finally getting his hands on the Anti-Life Equation, a weapon granting him power to rule over the universe. 'As the mountains of bodies on both sides grow ever higher, only Mister Miracle can stop the slaughter and restore peace,' says the logline. 'But the terrible power of the Anti-Life Equation may already be at work in his own mind, warping his reality, exposing his long-buried pain, and shattering the fragile happiness he's found with the woman he loves. It continues: 'And so begins the odyssey of Scott Free, Mister Miracle: a harrowing, hilarious, heart wrenching journey across the pitfalls of the ordinary and extraordinary as the son of God raised by the devil tries to save his family, his world, and maybe even himself.' According to a press release from Warner Bros, Mister Miracle will serve as Warner Bros. Animation and DC Studios' second adult animated series. The first of which (supposedly, barring the Harley Quinn Animated series) is Creature Commandos, whose second season is in production. In tandem with the announcement of Mister Miracle, DC Studios and Warner Bros. Animation reaffirmed other recently greenlit animated series, including Starfire!, My Adventures with Green Lantern and DC Super Powers. While the news of a Mister Miracle series will come to many DC fans as a pleasant surprise, this isn't the first time DC has attempted to bring the comic book character to life. Back in 2018, DC announced director Ava DuVernay was set to direct a New Gods movie, which would've seen Barda and Miracle on the silver screen–a project that King was set to co-write on, but was ultimately scrapped in 2021. With DC Studios under James Gunn unveiling a revamped roadmap of sorts, featuring a new array of projects, Mister Miracle's return to the menu is a pleasant surprise for the ultimate wife guy's diehard fans.

My Adventures with Superman Season 3: Release date rumors, cast updates and what to expect next
By Aman Shukla Published on June 11, 2025, 20:15 IST Last updated June 11, 2025, 19:36 IST My Adventures with Superman has captured hearts with its unique blend of anime-inspired visuals and a heartfelt take on the iconic Superman story. Following two well-received seasons, fans are eagerly anticipating Season 3. Here's an original look at the latest rumors about its release, updates on the cast, and what might lie ahead for this beloved DC animated series. Release Date Rumours for My Adventures with Superman Season 3 No official premiere date for My Adventures with Superman Season 3 has been announced, but patterns from previous seasons offer clues. Season 1 debuted in July 2023, followed by Season 2 in May 2024, suggesting a roughly annual release cycle. This points to a possible mid-2025 launch, potentially in the summer to align with the broader DC Universe momentum, including the Superman movie set for July 2025. Recent updates indicate production is progressing, with voice work for the first episode completed and several more in preparation, supporting a 2025 target. Cast Updates: Who's Returning? The core voice cast is expected to return, bringing the beloved characters of My Adventures with Superman back to life. Confirmed returning actors include: Jack Quaid as Clark Kent/Superman Alice Lee as Lois Lane Ishmel Sahid as Jimmy Olsen Kiana Madeira as Kara Zor-El/Supergirl Max Mittelman as Lex Luthor Chris Parnell as Slade Wilson/Deathstroke Debra Wilson as Amanda Waller David Errigo Jr. as Mr. Mxyzptlk Catherine Taber as Siobhan McDougal/Silver Banshee What to Expect from My Adventures with Superman Season 3 Plot and Storylines Season 3 of My Adventures with Superman is poised to expand its vibrant, anime-inspired DC universe. While specific plot details remain under wraps, several exciting developments have been teased: Superboy's Arrival : The introduction of Superboy will likely explore his origins and relationship with Clark. Whether he's portrayed as a government-built clone or a multiversal doppelganger, his presence will add new layers to the story. Villain Roster : Expect a formidable lineup of antagonists, including Amanda Waller, Deathstroke, Cyborg Superman (Hank Henshaw), Mr. Mxyzptlk, and a bald Lex Luthor, who will embrace his iconic look. Cyborg Superman's role, in particular, could tie into larger narrative arcs involving Kryptonian technology. Supergirl's Integration : After joining the main cast in Season 2, Kara Zor-El/Supergirl will play a more prominent role. Her past under Brainiac's control and her romantic connection with Jimmy Olsen may lead to compelling character arcs. Expanded DC Universe: The show might introduce elements from the broader DC canon, such as Thanagar (home of Hawkman and Hawkgirl) or even hints of Darkseid and the New Gods, as suggested by Season 2 easter eggs. These could set the stage for future seasons. The series will continue to balance high-stakes superhero action with heartfelt interpersonal dynamics, focusing on Clark, Lois, and Jimmy's evolving relationships. The show's lighthearted tone and emphasis on Superman's humanity, inspired by the 1978 Superman film, will remain central. Where to Watch My Adventures with Superman Season 3 When it premieres, My Adventures with Superman Season 3 will air on Adult Swim's Toonami block and stream on Max the following day, consistent with previous seasons. Fans can catch up on Seasons 1 and 2 on Max to prepare for the new adventures. My Adventures with Superman Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .
