Krypton (TV series)
Krypton is an American science fiction television series developed by David S. Goyer for Syfy. Focusing on Seg-El (Cameron Cuffe), the grandfather of DC Comics superhero Kal-El / Superman, the series is set approximately 200 years before the birth of Superman and takes place on the eponymous fictional planet. Krypton premiered on March 21, 2018. Its first season consists of ten episodes. The second season of ten episodes premiered on June 12, 2019. After its broadcast, Syfy canceled the series after two seasons in August.
Krypton follows Superman's grandfather, Seg-El, whose family, the House of El, has been ostracized and shamed. Seg fights to redeem his family's honor and save his beloved world from chaos.
In October 2014, David S. Goyer was developing a prequel television series titled Krypton. The series was in development by Syfy network, produced by Goyer and written and executive produced by Ian Goldberg. Damian Kindler was the showrunner with Goyer as co-executive producer. Syfy tweeted a debut of the show in 2018. Hawkwoman was originally considered to appear in the series, but was later decided by the showrunners not to include her in the first season of the series due to her not fitting into the ongoing storylines.
Syfy renewed Krypton for a second season, which premiered on June 12, 2019. Soon after its broadcast, Syfy canceled the series after two seasons in August.
The casting process began in 2016 and finished in 2018.
Georgina Campbell was first cast as Lyta Zod. Shaun Sipos was cast as Adam Strange. Strange was intended by the show's creators to be an LGBTQ+ character, but this was only implied following alleged interference from former DC executive Geoff Johns. Cameron Cuffe was cast as Seg-El. Regé-Jean Page auditioned for the role but was not cast because Johns reportedly believed the character had to resemble Superman actor Henry Cavill due to initial fan perception that the show could serve as a possible prequel to the 2013 film Man of Steel. Alongside Cameron Cuffe, other actors Ian McElhinney, Elliot Cowan, Ann Ogbomo, Rasmus Hardiker, Wallis Day, and Aaron Pierre were cast as Val-El, Daron-Vex, Jayna-Zod, Kem, Nyssa-Vex, and Dev-Em. Blake Ritson was cast as Brainiac.
Paula Malcomson was cast as Charys, while Hannah Waddingham was cast as Jax-Ur. Emmett J. Scanlan was cast as Lobo for the second season.
In June 2016, production on the pilot was slated to begin later in the year in Montreal. By September, the pilot was filmed in Serbia by Colm McCarthy. The second season began filming in October 2018 in Belfast and wrapped on March 3, 2019.
