Krypton premieres at the end of next month and to get fans well acquainted with the unknown heroes and villains of the upcoming series before then, Syfy has released nineteen brand new promotional cast photos.

Relative newcomer Cameron Cuffe (Florence Foster Jenkins) headlines the series as Superman's grandfather Seg-El, who will be joined in his fight to bring hope and equality to the planet of Krypton by the time-traveling Adam Strange, played by Shaun Sipos (The Vampire Diaries), and Lyta-Zod, played by Georgina Campbell (Black Mirror).

The rest of the supporting cast includes Ann Ogbomo (World War Z) as Lyta's mother Jayna-Zod, Aaron Pierre (Britannia) as Dev-Em, Wallis Day (The Royals) as Nyssa-Vex, and Ian McElhinney (Game of Thrones) as Seg's grandfather Val-El.

The Man of Steel’s grandfather, Seg brings hope and equality to the planet of Krypton, turning a world in disarray into one worthy of giving birth to the greatest superhero ever known. Revealing a chapter of the DC Universe that has rarely been explored, KRYPTON, is set 200 years before the Superman legend we know.

A world-weary, time-traveling human, Adam Strange finds himself stranded on Krypton as the unlikely mentor to Seg-El. Adam will stop at nothing to ensure that the greatest hero who ever lived actually exists.

Jayna-Zod is the leader of Kandor's Military guild and Lyta's mother. She has dedicated her life to protecting the city from threats within and without. She wants nothing more than to leave behind a legacy of ironclad duty.

Bound to Lyta-Zod, Dev-Em is a Sagitari who has always relished his role as a protector of Kandor. He admires Jayna as the perfect template of a warrior, but he's loved Lyta since childhood, and his jealousy of Seg could destroy everything.

Torn between proving herself worthy of the Zod name and her innate desire to help and heal the people of Krypton, Lyta-Zod is fierce and compassionate. Lyta's journey of self-discovery means forging her own destiny in the face of what society dictates.

The youngest daughter of House Vex and brilliant lawmaker, Nyssa-Vex understands the city's politics and is utterly at home within the establishment of Kandor's ruling class. She's adept in the art of political alliance, but it is Seg who will teach her about friendship.

Seg's grandfather and one of Krypton's greatest scientists, Val was instrumental in Krypton's greatest era of scientific progress, before being executed for treason. After a fourteen-year absence, he returns to become a pivotal player in defeating the threat against Krypton.

Set two generations before Superman ever heads to Earth, Krypton follows Kal-El’s grandfather (played by Cameron Cuffe) — whose House of El was ostracized and shamed — as he fights to redeem his family’s honor and save his beloved world from chaos. The series comes from producers David Goyer (the Dark Knight trilogy) and Damian Kindler (Sleepy Hollow). Along with Cuffe, the show stars Georgina Campbell (Broadchurch), Elliot Cowan (Da Vinci’s Demons), Ann Ogbomo (World War Z), Rasmus Hardiker (Your Highness), Wallis Day (Will), Aaron Pierre (Tennison) and Ian McElhinney (Game of Thrones).

Krypton features:
Cameron Cuffe as Seg-El
Georgina Campbell as Lyta Zod
Shaun Sipos as Adam Strange
Ann Ogbomo as Jayna-Zod
Aaron Pierre as Dev-Em
Wallis Day as Nyssa-Vex
Ian McElhinney as Val-El

Krypton premieres March 21

A show featuring Superman's grandfather and Superman's grandfather's grandfather. That's... something.

This is absurd.

IKidYouNotMan - 2/3/2018, 3:42 PM

Sounds like a right hoot.

KWilly - 2/3/2018, 3:48 PM

So we got the CW-verse. The Gothamverse. The Titansverse. The DCEU. And now this... Good God.

Wish it was just like the MCU, where everything is one big world. Or if not, just two.
