The film is directed by Michael Chang and features the voices of George Newbern as Superman, Robin Atkin Downes as Manchester Black, and Pauley Perrette as Lois Lane.
The story takes place in a world where Superman's idealism is being challenged by a group of new superheroes called the Elite. The Elite consists of Manchester Black, Coldcast, Menagerie, and The Hat, who believe that Superman's moral code is outdated and useless in dealing with the threat of modern-day villains.

As the public becomes more enamored with the Elite's violent methods, Superman finds himself feeling powerless and outdated. He begins to question his own beliefs and whether or not he needs to change them to keep up with the times.
When the Elite goes too far and starts killing innocent bystanders, Superman realizes that he must step in and stop them. The resulting battle between Superman and the Elite is explosive and intense, ultimately revealing who truly embodies the spirit of true heroism.
Superman vs. The Elite is a thrilling and thought-provoking superhero film that explores the meaning of heroism and the importance of staying true to one's own beliefs, even in the face of adversity.
