The story, neutrally told

Centre · 2DC Studios co-CEO Peter Safran told Collider that the animated series Mister Miracle is targeting a 2028 release, although no premiere date has been announced. Centre · 1Safran said the production is far along and that the studio has seen animatics of the whole season, adding: "I think we've always thought of it as '28." Centre · 2Collider reports the season has eight episodes, and Safran indicated that episodes will run about 30 minutes.

Centre · 1The adult animated series adapts Tom King and Mitch Gerads' comic about Scott Free and Big Barda, with Josh Hutcherson voicing Scott and Mackenzie Davis playing Barda. Centre · 1King, who also worked on the DC series Lanterns, adapted the entire season himself and oversees the story; Safran said King applied what he learned creating and executive producing Lanterns. Centre · 1Safran called the comic one of his favourites of King's books, describing it as emotional, and said the show combines that with action across different planets.

Centre · 1Asked about further seasons, Safran said there was "no reason why it couldn't be an ongoing season series"; Collider notes no additional seasons have been announced. Safran also confirmed the show is part of the DCU.
