Published: December 8, 2025, 12:31 pm

Now, the moment fans of the DC Universe have been waiting for is about to arrive. James Gunn, the visionary director and co-head of DC Studios, has just confirmed that the official Supergirl teaser trailer will be released this week. Following months of excitement after Milly Alcock’s shock debut in Superman, the Girl of Steel is ready to take centre stage. 

The buzz surrounding this announcement is sky high. Ever since Alcock delivered that memorable cameo near the end of the Superman movie crashing into the Fortress of Solitude after flying on red-sun planets — fans have been begging for more. Her entrance immediately establishes the tone for a woman markedly different from her cousin, Clark Kent. Where Superman represents hope and positivity, Supergirl seems like a more layered, quixotic, even fascinating character.

The “Look Out” marketing tag line is a pun on and a signpost to this departure from the “Look Up” Superman campaign, and it indicates that Kara Zor-El is the source of whatever new attitude is taking hold of the DC Universe. 

Supergirl Release Date is Near

Gunn’s confirmation comes after a massive bombshell at WB’s CCXP25 where they previewed fans with Supergirl’s official costume as the world is built with themed vignettes.

The studio certainly went all out to drum up excitement for the next big chapter in the franchise. In releasing the teaser trailer this week they are also tapping into that buzz and making sure people are talking as we get closer to the film’s release on June 26, 2026.  

Supergirl’s character herself makes this announcement all the more amazing 

The character has long lived in the shadow of Superman, playing a secondary role for much of its existence. However this new version of Supergirl, based on the acclaimed “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow” story arc, will be about giving Kara Zor-El her own adventure. From director Craig Gillespie (I, Tonya) — who is also co-writing the script alongside Zach Dean — this one is being described as a space adventure with emotional impact and complexity. James Gunn has also previously teased that Supergirl will be a cosmic journey fans have never seen before.

Supergirl Teaser and Cast

The teaser trailer was originally posted on social media, offering fans their first look at Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El. Alcock, who won hearts with her portrayal in House of the Dragon, offers a new angle to the role. When she was cast, Gunn himself praised her ability, saying he was “blown away” by her auditions and screen tests.

With an amazing cast led by Jason Momoa as anti-hero Lobo, Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley and more, this movie has the potential to be something really special. The arrival of Krypto, Superman’s super dog, offers one more connection to the broader Kryptonian lineage being developed in this new DC Universe.  

Conclusion

The announcement that the Supergirl teaser is coming this week is the DC Universe revitalization moment. Milly Alcock as a fearless, emotionally layered Kara Zor-El, and James Gunn at the helm of the grand creative vision – it’s clear this franchise is priming itself for a new tonal shift. Whether it’s the CCXP25 costume reveal or the “Look Out!” tagline, everything points to a character and a movie that wants to live outside of Superman’s orbit and find her own place in the cosmos.Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow could be one of DC’s best defining cinematic moments yet.

Best Horror Movies 2025 That Redefined Fear and Prestige Cinema

Discover the best horror movies 2025, from award-nominated thrillers to scares, prestige cinema and storytelling indie nightmares.

Best Horror Movies 2025

For decades now, horror has existed a bit on the margins of awards season — the darling of the audience but the red-headed stepchild of the institutions. But 2025 completely twists that narrative on its head. The horror genre has been conspicuously absent from Golden Globe nominations in recent years, but a blood-soaked drama here, classic monsters there, and some nerve-shredding indie scares for good measure proves that horror is now officially in the prestige spotlight. From Ryan Coogler’s bold Sinners to Guillermo del Toro’s soulful Frankenstein, this year offers ample proof that fear, when honed through vision and thoughtfulness, can hold its own with the most lauded cinematic storytelling. 

The 2026 Golden Globes nominations was recently released, and the lead is not one of the usual biopics or oscarbaits. It’s blood, guts, and monsters. With major nods for Ryan Coogler’s Sinners and Guillermo del Toro’s Frankenstein, Screenrant has just spoken the quiet part out loud: 2025 is definitely the Year of Horror. 

The jaw-dropper was not just that horror movies got nominated—it’s where they got nominated. Over the years, if a horror film managed to creep its way up the awards chat, it would usually be shafted to the technical side of things, or weirdly, “Musical or Comedy” (remember Get Out?).

But this year, two of the six slots for the Best Motion Picture – Drama are bona fide horror films.

Sinners

First, we have Sinners. It was always going to be an event when Ryan Coogler re-teamed with Michael B. Jordan, but I don’t think anyone was ready for this level of acclaim. A period vampire thriller set in the Jim Crow South? It seemed risky on paper, but the execution was perfect.

With seven nominations, Sinners is both leading the pack and the only one with the majority of the votes. It combines high-brow historical drama with old-school, monster-movie terror in a way we haven’t seen since maybe Interview with the Vampire, but with more bite (pun intended). 

Frankenstein

Then there’s “Frankenstein.” Guillermo del Toro has long been our advocate when it comes to monsters, but his version of the Mary Shelley staple for Netflix feels like his magnum opus. Taking five nominations, it shows that classic monsters never go out of style – they just need a master’s touch.

Oscar Isaac (as the Doctor) and Jacob Elordi (as the Monster) being in the acting conversations at all is a sign that voters are finally looking beyond the prosthetics and seeing the soul beneath. 

The “Weapons” Effect and the Indie Scares

It’s not just the gargantuan applicants to the studio system getting the love. The indie community, who’d been holding the horror torch aloft for years, eventually was given its seat at the table.

Zach Cregger’s “Weapons”—his follow-up to Barbarian that’s highly anticipated—squeaked in a nomination for Amy Madigan as Supporting Actress. If you’ve watched the film, you know exactly why. What she did as Aunt Gladys was nightmare fuel, and she went right into the “Horror Hall of Fame.” To have a performance that is frighteningly recognized by a major voting body is a huge win for all of us who make the case that scaring an audience is just as hard a task as making them cry.

This round of accolades feels like a direct sequel to the proving ground of 2024. Remember when Demi Moore took home the Globe for The Substance? That felt like a fluke, we thought — “lifetime achievement” type deal for a body horror shocker. But in retrospect it was the crack in the dam. That victory sent a message to the industry that “weird” and “gross” could also be “prestige.” 

The Last of Us Season 2

The Last of Us Season 2 expands on the show’s haunting world, turning its focus from survival to the emotional toll of violence and revenge. With higher stakes, darker themes, and increasingly active threats, the season examines how love, loss, and trauma transform its characters in a vicious post-pandemic world.

Bella Ramsey’s nomination is a testament that the series still packs a punch emotionally even as the clickers grow more terrifying.

Wednesday Season 2

Then there’s Season 2 of “Wednesday” and “Monster: The Ed Gein Story,” both of which earned nominations for Jenna Ortega and Charlie Hunnam. It’s a media environment that implies dark audiences want darkness, and dark creators are catering to their tastes in high end packaging.

Wednesday Season 2 broadens the strange and disturbing world of Nevermore Academy. It throws Wednesday Addams into more lethal riddles and more challenging personal battles. The danger mounts with scarier scares, more warped laughs, and ever changing bonds. The program maintains its gothic, grim allure.

Why These Movies Consider the Best Horror Movies 2025

We no longer need to call it “elevated” to be allowed to enjoy it. Sinners is simply an excellent film. Frankenstein is a tragedy and a masterpiece. Weapons are a roller coaster of anxiety. They aren’t “good for horror movies”—they’re just really good films, full stop.

The stigma against what some call “left-of-center” storytelling is dissipating. A generation of filmmakers raised on Carpenter, Craven and Romero are now making movies with A-list budgets and A-list stars. And obviously, the electorate wants to get on board for the ride.

Conclusion

What really makes 2025 feel like we’re standing at the cliff edge of a new era isn’t just the nominations themselves—it’s the mindset behind them. Best Horror Movies 2025 is no longer being praised simply for being horror but it’s being celebrated as powerful cinema. Studio-backed blockbusters, audacious independents and genre-heavy television racing to dominate in major categories: the implication is clear, horror has grown up, and the awards bodies are perhaps ready to acknowledge that. The monsters were always meaningful— we just needed the industry to stop looking away.
