DC's Injustice Animated Movie Arrives This October

DC's feature-length animated Injustice movie officially has a release date of October 19, 2021. It will launch on Blu-ray and Digital formats.

The movie is based on the fighting video game series of the same name, which includes 2013's Injustice: Gods Among Us and 2017's Injustice 2. Developed by Mortal Kombat studio NetherRealm, the series is set in an alternate universe where Joker tricks Superman into killing Lois Lane, sending him down a dark path.

The movie is set to be based on the first game, as well as the best-selling graphic novel based on the series, titled Injustice: Gods Among Us: Year One.

The Injustice movie cast features Justin Hartley as Superman, who is no stranger to the DC universe. Hartley is known for playing Green Arrow in Smallville. Anson Mount, who plays Captain Christopher Pike in Star Trek: Discovery, will star alongside Hartley as Batman. Other members of the cast include Laura Bailey, Yuri Lowenthal, and Steven Universe's Zach Callison.

The film features a script by the writer of Batman: Hush, Ernie Altbacker, and is directed by Matt Peters, who directed Justice League Dark: Apokolips War.
