i wonder what villains will be used, and will there be any new characters. I hope that there is a combination of older villains and newer, and invent some. I liked Live Wire and Luminous from the 90s series.

You mean this origin? It was one of the two books of theirs I read, and the one that made me decide not to read another, so I'll have to strongly disagree about it needing to be the blueprint for any Superman origin movie. I much prefer Birthright and Man and Superman for origin stories. Like I said, I like their ideas a lot but hate their execution of those ideas. But maybe their work inspiring the origin but not being an adaptation would be alright.

Yep that's the one. I think it's all a matter of taste, but the stance that some of their ideas are executed in a confusing manner has always been overblown to me outside of a few projects (Final Crisis being the big one, parts of the Invisibles). What is it about the Brainiac issues in particular that are poorly executed if I may ask? Because it's very straightforward and completely nails the character.
I can see some issues with the Vyndktvx chapters later on, but not the Brainiac/Metallo one, which is what I meant as the blueprint for the movie.
It's been a while since the last Superman cartoon so I'm not sure if there's a guarantee for certain villains, but Metallo, Parasite, Mxy, and Bizarro will probably show up sooner rather than later.
We can still look at other Superman/DC media to see who shows up often enough that they’ll probably show up here: Lex, Brainiac, Metallo, Parasite, Livewire, Doomsday, Bizarro, Mxy, and Darkseid are 100% going to show up here based on how often they show up elsewhere. Mongul is a likely villain as well. Zod is an odd case because while he’s the second most used villain besides Lex on the film side, he’s rarely used in animation. Hilariously I feel confident that Bloodsport has a very good chance of showing up here based on him being in The Suicide Squad. Toyman shows up frequently enough that I think there’s a good chance he’ll be in this too.
But it’s the more obscure villains I’m really hoping show up here, the ones who are really cool but don’t get much play in the comics or elsewhere. Manchester Black and the Elite would be great for a show like this. Kryptonite Man, Red Cloud and the Invisible Mafia, Prankster, Puzzler, Riot, Insect Queen, Maxima, Solaris, Conduit, Khyber, Master Jailer, Xa-Du the Phantom King, Ultra-Humanite, and Volcana. Those are who I’m rooting for.

I guess Harley is kind of a romcom? At least the relationships were pretty prominent, although back in my day Superhero cartoons had a good balance between the action and the romance and it wasn't all "boys think girls and relationships are icky so let's not include that."
Well, this is a kids cartoon so...no.
I wouldn't completely rule that out either.
