Have you ever wondered what it would be like to be an ordinary person living an ordinary life in the DC Universe? There are superhumans, gods, and monsters constantly fighting and destroying cities, but you’re just trying to beat traffic to get to your 9-5. Well, this is the life NBC’s upcoming sitcom Powerless is trying to depict.
Powerless follows Emily Locke (Vanessa Hudgens) as the Director of Research & Development at Wayne Security, a subsidiary of Wayne Enterprises, that specializes on products for ordinary humans who are poised to be victims of the battles between superheroes and supervillains. NBC recently released a new teaser promo for the show, which you can watch below:
