Supergirl & KFC’s Collaboration Reveals the Best Krypto Collectible So Far (& You Can Get it Soon)

by

With less than a month to go until the release of DC’s Supergirl movie, the marketing is in full swing. It’s typical for big films to team up with other brands at this stage, and many blockbusters have partnered with fast-food restaurants for promotions – like Burger King’s Mandalorian and Grogu menu. Now, Supergirl is joining that trend with a collaboration with KFC. Soon, fans will be able to collect a special Krypto item!

KFC is teaming up with Supergirl! Starting June 8th, you can order the Supergirl Ultimate Meal or the Supergirl Combo Meal. Both meals include your choice of tenders or nuggets, three exclusive *Supergirlthemed sauces, and a biscuit. The Ultimate Meal is a bigger treat with two sides, a special Kryptonian Kooler drink, and a collectible keychain from the movie (it comes in a blind bag, so it’s a surprise!). The Combo Meal comes with one side and a regular fountain drink.

Beginning June 10th, KFC is offering a limited-edition Supergirl Krypto bucket for $29.99. This bucket—which isn’t meant for the microwave—is perfect for enjoying KFC chicken, popcorn, or any of your favorite snacks. See photos of the bucket and meal options below.


Krypto Has Been a Huge Part of the Supergirl Marketing Campaign

Krypto, the lovable and mischievous dog from the Superman movie, quickly won over audiences and is set to appear in Supergirl. That’s why it’s a smart move for KFC to feature him on a limited-edition bucket! Krypto is incredibly cute and appeals to a wide range of people, making him a perfect choice for merchandise. This bucket is likely to be very popular, so if you’re a collector, be sure to visit your local KFC soon while supplies last.

Krypto isn’t just a fun addition to the Supergirl movie – he’s central to the story. The trailer shows the entire plot focuses on Kara Zor-El’s attempt to save Krypto after he’s poisoned. Marketing for Supergirl has consistently emphasized the strong emotional connection between Kara and Krypto, even showing a flashback of Kara finding him as a puppy. As Kara says to Krypto, “Home is wherever you are, buddy.”

The upcoming Supergirl movie promises a fun, action-packed space adventure similar to the Guardians of the Galaxy films. However, trailers reveal that this Kara Zor-El is much more hardened and cynical than her cousin Superman. Having witnessed the destruction of Krypton and experienced significant loss, she’s grappling with deep emotional pain. Her dog, Krypto, is her only source of stability, making his endangerment a major emotional stake. Krypto is a crucial character in the movie, just as important as Supergirl herself, and the commemorative bucket is a fitting tribute to his role.

Though Krypto’s scenes in Supergirl are likely to be emotionally impactful, it’s unlikely the super-powered dog will meet a tragic end. This means Krypto will probably remain a key part of DC Studios’ promotional efforts for a long time. Since Peter Safran has confirmed Kara’s importance to their plans, and the Super Family is central to the new DC Universe, Krypto is expected to be included as well. Fans can look forward to even more Krypto merchandise, starting with Man of Tomorrow and continuing into the future.
