DC announced a while back that the DC Fandome event would be back for 2021 and now we know when and what is coming, check out the teaser video for a glimpse.

Like last years event though, the showcase will not air at a good time for us, as it will start at 3am AEST on Sunday October 17, so if you want to watch it live, it will be an early one.

Ann Sarnoff, Chair and Chief Executive Officer, WarnerMedia Studios and Networks Group, said: “DC FanDome 2020 was a first-of-its kind global virtual fan experience and showcased every aspect of the DC Universe with unprecedented scale and access. This year, we’re taking everything that people loved about DC FanDome and supercharging it to super-serve fans with even more exclusive first-looks, breaking news, in-depth interviews and insight from the stars and creative teams of their favorite DC content.”
