According to TV Guide, fans of 1996’s Superman: The Animated Series can look forward to a new, feature-length, direct-to-video extension of the popular show. Slated to debut later this year, the movie from Warner Bros. Animation will have Tim Daly and Dana Delany return as the voices of the Man of Steel and Lois Lane, respectively.
Titled Superman: Brainiac Attacks, the release will see Supes going toe-to-toe with old enemies Lex Luthor and Brainiac. Apparently, the champion of peace, justice and the American Way will also wrestle with his desire to disclose his identity to the lovely Miss Lane. No word yet if Clancy Brown (HBO’s Carnivale, Highlander) will return as the voice of Lex Luther.
Superman: The Animated Series was produced by Alan Burnett, Paul Dini, Glen Murakami and Bruce Timm. Warner Home Video last year put out a two-disc DVD release of episodes that retails for around $26.99.
