Well, if its any consolation, he's the plot element that gets Superman to take Supergirl to the future, so he's probably not gonna get that much screen time.

We can only hope.
And just to make it clear to people who don't know me that well, I don't object to Batman himself so much as the characterization of him as a know-it-all with poor social skills.
Here's the media release that just went out about the film...

Jeff Wamester (Justice Society: World War II) directs Legion of Super-Heroes from a screenplay
And here is a link to the trailer, which is housed on the WBHE YouTube channel:
That looks quite good from the trailer. I like the setting and the setup.
GL I missed Quislet. When was that? Also you listed Tyroc. I didn't see him. There is the head of a figure that resembles him next to Saturn Girl and Cosmic boy at 0:47 but I was assuming that was Lightning Lad in his latest colouration, although the hair is different. Other than that I imagine the other dark skinned figure to be Jacques as Invisible Kid showing his white streak in his hair. Happy to be wrong.
Nice to see the press release nighty. Thanks. Confirms a few of the others. I wondered whether that was Luornu by the colour of her outfit and then she is shown duplicating at 1:01 and thought maybe Duo Damsel but we get the confirmation of Triplicate Girl from the press release. (Also she is shown triplicated on the box cover.)
I always get a little annoyed when Timber Wolf is drawn almost identical to Wolverine (see 1:02) but then what can you do? Seeing him as an instructor could be good.
I am curious to see what they do with the other Brainiacs listed in the credits. Just brief cameos? Probably but might be interesting if they are more.
Looks like Kara will be the focus character which makes sense from a business perspective and that could work well if she is the one through whom we view this world as spectators. She naturally has pride of place on the box art but again interesting to see Brainiac 5 and Mon-El as the other most prominent figures, followed by Bouncing Boy, Triplicate Girl, Dawnstar and Phantom Girl. This is not a picture of just Kara with a few hangers-on so that's good.
As a fan of the Kara/Querl relationship I look forward to the hints towards that from the trailer and his prominence on the cover. Not sure I like his look but you can't have everything. At least his apparent disappointment in the trailer suggest he won't be the cold, emotionless version too often copied from L.E.G.I.O.N.s Vril.
Cautiously optimistic with a little bit of excitement is my reaction.
ooh this looks fun! I like Kara instead of Clark taking centre stage for a change, and that there are so many characters in this trailer - 4 or 5 superheroes isn't a Legion after all
I don't love some of the character designs they've gone with, but the actual animation style is nice so that should make up for it!
OTOH if Brainy's forcefields are gonna look all hexagonny like on the cover image, I am very down with that!
I'm REALLY curious to see how deep they go with the extras - are they going to go into ALL the Legionnaires or just the ones featured in the movie?
I'm listing them here for posterity as the rest of the Internet tends to fall off the face of the Earth now and then...

Legion of Super-Heroes – Special Features
4K, Blu-ray and Digital
The Legion Behind The Legion (New Featurette) – It took a heroic effort from a legion of writers, artists, animators and filmmakers to bring Legion of Super-Heroes to life. In this featurette, filmmakers and stars give us a deep dive into the making of the movie, from the original story idea through character development and final animation.
Meet the Legionnaires (New Featurette) – There are dozens and dozens of Legion members, many of whom are featured in Legion of Super-Heroes. Who made the cut, and why? Lucky for us, the filmmakers are here to introduce us to each one – and give us some background on who they are, and why they’re important to the movie.
Brainiac Attack: The Intellect Behind the Super-Villain (New Featurette) – In Legion of Super-Heroes, Brainiac 5 proves himself to be the pinnacle of all Brainiac iterations, but how did he become that way? In this featurette, filmmakers explain what we should we know about the 4 Brainiacs who came before him, and how – and why – Brainiac 5 chose his own path.
Down to Earth: The Story of Supergirl (New Featurette) – Supergirl’s narrow escape from Krypton and her arrival on Earth is just the beginning of our story (literally). In this featurette, filmmakers explain why they chose to center Legion of Super-Heroes on Supergirl, what the backstory is between her and Superman at the start of the movie, and what exactly is going on between her and Brainiac 5.
Spend some time with the expansive canon of popular DC Universe Movies, DC Animated Movies and many other animated DC films and television series by checking out HBO Max!

Quislet is in the classroom scene - it's just to the left of Dream Girl.
Tyroc is one of the holo statues near the front where you have Tyroc, Kid Quantim (Jazmin Cullen edition) and what is either Karate Kid or possible Vi.
(The rear most statues are the founders, Sensor Girl and Ferro are shown flying, then in front of them are the three above, then before them is Wildfire)

Wow, I kept looking back through it for those three, but was staring too much at the frame at 47 seconds in which just shows the Founders, Sensor Girl and Ferro Lad, not the three in front! Stoked to see Jasmin and Tyroc at least recognized, and it not to be 100% just the up-to-Dawnstar, no one later, Legion that tends to appear in most continuities.
Stone Boy is a neat trainee choice and while I'm not the hugest fan of Arms-Fall-Off Boy, Gunn's Suicide Squad has at least made him a bit more recognizable, and it wouldn't be the Legion without one or more whacky unexpected supers like Matter-Eater Lad, with the sorts of powers that never make it onto most lineups. (Although the Legion has always had some less common choices, like super-intelligence or triplication/multiplication or bouncing powers, which most games faithfully reproduce, but sure don't show up much on the marquee teams like the Justice League or Avengers...)
Kara/Supergirl has a rough run – witnessing the destruction of her home planet, battling an armed Solomon Grundy, and generally struggling to fit into life on Earth. But that’s just the start of her adventure in LEGION OF SUPER-HEROES, the latest DC Universe Movie, coming to 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray Combo Pack and Digital starting February 7, 2023 from Warner Bros. Discovery Home Entertainment.
