'Krypton': Lobo Makes Seg-El's "Bad Day" a Whole Lot Worse… [PREVIEW]
With only a month to go before SYFY's Superman prequel-series-with-a-time-twist Krypton unleashes its sophomore season, the network is treating fans to a look at one of a gaggle of "big bads" ready to make it a bad day for "The Grandfather of Steel" Seg-El (Cameron Cuffe): the "Main Man" himself… the biggest "bastich" in the universe: Lobo (Emmett J. Scanlan).
From the looks of the following trailer, Lobo doesn't have a lot of time for politics or power struggles or family drama: he's here to do a job, collect his pay… and possibly strangling Adam Strange (Shaun Sipos) with Seg's intestines, when the series returns to SYFY on June 12th:
Here's a look at SYFY's first official trailer for Krypton season 2, which once again puts the spotlight squarely on the villains, with Zod now holding the reigns on Krypton and Seg-El looking to rally a resistance to take back their home planet and save Krypton's future. But with other forces at play and different personal agendas slowly being revealed, can our hero save his planet – and himself – in time?
What if Superman never existed? Set two generations before the destruction of Superman's home planet, "Krypton" follows Seg-El (Cameron Cuffe), the legendary Man of Steel's grandfather, as a young man who fights to save his home planet from destruction.
Season 2 brings us back to a changed Kandor, locked in a battle over its freedom and its future. General Dru-Zod (Colin Salmon) is now in control. He's on a ruthless mission to rebuild Krypton according to his ideals and to secure its future by conquering the universe. Faced with a bleak outlook, our hero, Seg-El, attempts to unite a dispersed group of resisters in an effort to defeat Zod and restore hope to their beloved planet. Their chance at redemption is threatened however, by their opposing tactics, shifting alliances and conflicting moral boundaries – forcing each of them to individually determine how far they're willing to go in pursuit of a better tomorrow.
Krypton is from Warner Horizon Scripted Television and is executive produced by David S. Goyer (Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, The Dark Knight Trilogy) through his Phantom Four banner, alongside Cameron Welsh (Constantine, The Last Ship), who serves as showrunner.
