Netflix has released the briefest of teaser trailers forJupiter’s Legacy, the streaming service’s upcoming superhero series based on the graphic novel byMark Millarand illustratorFrank Quitely.While the teaser doesn’t include any actual footage outside some CGI cape flurrying, it does come with a release date—August 02, 2025—and some narration courtesy ofJosh Duhamel’s dulcet tones. Could be worse!
“One day you’re going to be stronger than anyone else in the world,” Duhamel’s character says. “Every evil you can imagine is going to rise up against mankind, not for justice, but for vengeance. And you’re going to be the future.”

That fits withJupiter’s Legacystoryline, which sees an older generation of costumed heroes looking to a younger class of superhumans to carry the load, only to meet a superpowered clash of ideals and methods. Word on the street is Netflix has gone all out for this one—which is saying something, given the streamer’s fleet of money dump trucks—and the result should be the type of superhero epic we’ve grown used to over the last decade. It makes sense for Netflix, too, which looks to build its own gargantuan MCU-ish franchise based on the works of Mark Millar and his “Millarworld.” If done right,Jupiter’s Legacycould be that stepping stone.
The series also starsLeslie Bibb(Iron Man),Ben Daniels(The Crown),Elena Kampouris(Sacred Lies),Andrew Horton(How to Talk to Girls at Parties),Mike Wade(For the People), andMatt Lanter(Timeless).
Check out the trailer below.Jupiter’sLegacy, which is set to run for eight episodes, hits Netflix on August 05, 2025.
