DC’s animated Tomorrowverse is adapting the legendary “Crisis on Infinite Earths” comic book story into a new movie trilogy. Here’s what we know about the first Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths film.
In 2020, DC and Warner Bros. slightly reset their animated comic book films. It began with Superman: Man of Tomorrow, and the Tomorrowverse now has six animated movies. Using the same art style, voice cast, and interweaving plotlines, the Tomorrowverse has been largely well-received by fans. The next three films will focus on a famous DC comic book storyline from the 1980s that changed the future of all DC superheroes—“Crisis on Infinite Earths.” Designed by creators Marv Wolfman and George Pérez to streamline the sprawling DC universe, the plotline killed off many alternative versions of DC’s characters. The mega-crossover event is a great arc for the Tomorrowverse. Here’s what we know about Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths Part One.
What is the release date of Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths Part One?
Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths Part One will premiere digitally on January 9, 2024, on most platforms. If you prefer physical media over digital only, you’re in luck. On January 23, a special edition 4K UHD SteelBook and Blu-ray will be available for purchase. Although we don’t have a set date, like the rest of DC’s animated films, Justice League: Crisis on Infinite Earths Part One will be available on Max sometime after its initial release.
