On By Littum

Director James Gunn has released the first extended look at his new Superman film, a reboot of the DC cinematic universe starring David Corenswet as the main character. (He also plays Clark Kent, but don’t tell anyone at the Daily Planet.) In a round table with IGN shared on December 17Gunn revealed a bit about how this film might play into future films from the DC universe.

“Everything must take care of itself,” the director insisted. “I don’t want anyone to watch this movie and trust anything else. Look, once we get down, it might change a little bit.”

Gunn added that “there are seeds being planted,” but his main focus is, “How do we make this movie the best that we can be? And it’s going to stay that way as much as I can possibly make it that way .”

Here’s everything we know about the new one Superman movie so far.

When will Superman be released?

Superman is set to debut in the US on July 11, 2025.

Is there a trailer yet?

Released on December 19, 2024, the new trailer offers a glimpse of what fans can expect from the first of several planned films intended to breathe new life into the DC characters. The dramatic cut reintroduces the world of Superman, his friends, his enemies, his romance with Lois Lane and his faithful friend, Krypto the Superdog.

What will Superman about?

Based on the trailer, the film will touch on Superman’s origins, from his time on a farm in Kansas to playing a role at the Daily Planet where he meets romantic interest Lois Lane. There are a number of DC characters in this film and we get a glimpse of Lex Luthor in all his bald glory. It also appears that Superman’s credibility among the people of Metropolitan City is at an all-time low. Crowds attack Superman, and while they can’t physically hurt him, his spirits certainly seem to drop.

New heroes for future films look set to make their debut in this iteration of Superman’s story, including Mister Terrific, Hawkgirl, and Green Lantern.

In his IGN interview, Gunn revealed that although Superman and Lex Luthor know each other, this film will feature their first official clash. He also suggested that the relationship between Clark and Lois will be more intense than usual in Superman stories.

“The relationship between David and Rachel’s (characters) on screen is something I don’t think we’ve seen in — I hate to say something like that — but I don’t think it’s something we’ve ever seen (in) any superhero movie ever,” he said. “It’s a complicated relationship and we really get into it and there are long scenes that are about their relationship and the way they relate and what it would be like for someone who is this incredibly intelligent, strong-headed , stubborn, skeptical journalist, to have a relationship with someone who can lift a skyscraper.”

He played coy when asked if Lois knows who Superman is.

“Well, we’ll see,” Gunn joked. “She knows who Superman is.”

Who’s in Superman cast?

Aside from Corenswet, the new film will feature Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Pruitt Taylor Vince as Jonathan Kent, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, and Nathan Fillion is now Guy Gardner/Green Lantern.
