Suh Ankripton is a language co-designed by David J. Peterson and his wife:[1] Jessie Peterson for the film Superman (2025 film). Suh Ankripton is the language spoken by Kryptonians in the movie, specifically Supermans parents: Jor-El and Lara who, in a hologram sent with Superman on his trip to Earth, tell Superman to subjugate earth[2], although it is important to mention that the reality of the message is questioned by some[3]. David and Jessie made an effort to retain the original feel of the language in earlier instances, so phonology and vocabulary are based on the early words in the comics.[4]
