This May, the DC Super Hero Girls are back with their second feature in the new, groundbreaking universe celebrating young girls, brought to you by DC and Warner Bros. Home Entertainment.

"Intergalactic Games" features 6 episodes from their popular web-series and a music video featuring the American 'girl group', Fifth Harmony!

Fifth Harmony was discovered during the second season of The X Factor back in 2012 and exploded on the scene with their first album REFLECTION in 2015 that included the platinum singles "Boss", "Sledgehammer" and "Worth It". Their song "That's My Girl" has been used to accompany scenes from the DC Super Hero Girls webseries to create a fun, upbeat music video promoting the power of girls.

With a run time of 72 minutes, "Intergalactic Games" will go on sale May 9th for Digital HD format and then on May 23rd, the DVD will be available at your local retailer for $19.99
