James Gunn reveals key details about upcoming Superman film set for July 2025

James Gunn's upcoming film "Superman" will not be an origin story. It begins in the middle of an action scene, with Superman already established. The story unfolds over a short period, focusing on legacy and relationships. The film will feature a more serious tone compared to Gunn's previous works. It includes a score by John Murphy, with nods to John Williams. Superman's costume will have trunks to make him appear more approachable, reflecting his desire to be a symbol of hope. "Superman" will introduce supporting superheroes, with Mister Terrific playing a significant role. The film is largely standalone, but it will set up elements for future DC projects. The first trailer is set to release this Thursday.
