Ah…finally, it’s a wrap on the latest flight of our beloved caped crusader! With a skip in our step and hearts racing like speeding bullets, we can’t help but wonder: Has James Gunn captured the perfect homage to the Man of Steel that has soared in our imaginations for generations?
Like a proud parent watching their child take their first flight, Gunn took to his social media to announce a milestone moment in comic book cinema: the newSupermanmovie has completed filming, promising a fresh take-off for the beloved character and marking the dawn of the new DCU.
As he expressed his deep gratitude to the cast and crew that have toiled tirelessly, we’re given a sneak peek into what may just be the Superman movie fans have been pining for. Gunn aimed to make a movie about a“good man”,he shared in his social media post, igniting sparks of hope that this Superman, portrayed by the extremely handsome David Corenswet, will embody the very essence of truth, & justice.

And if his social media post is anything to go by, it sounds like he’s poured his heart and soul into this project. In a world filled with darkness and chaos, Gunn wanted to bring a ray of sunshine in the form of a“good man” (via X). And from the sounds of it, the cast and crew have truly embodied those values on set.
And that’s a wrap.God bless our cast and crew whose commitment, creativity, and hard work have brought this project to life. I set out to make a movie about a good man in a world that isn’t always so much. And the goodness and kindness and love I’ve encountered on a daily basis…pic.twitter.com/9Y52HEVXpF
Gunn also extended a special shout-out to“our cast and crew whose commitment, creativity, and hard work have brought this project to life” in the post.David Corenswetsteps into the iconicred and blue suitas Superman, with Rachel Brosnahan by his side as the fearless Lois Lane. Together, they’ll be taking on the likes of Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor, a villain who’s as cunning as a fox and as dangerous as a snake in the grass.
But it’s not just about the heroes and villains in this film. Gunn has assembled a stellar cast, including Nathan Fillion as the cocky Guy Gardner, Milly Alcock as the powerful Kara Zor-El / Supergirl, María Gabriela de Faría as the brilliant Engineer, and Isabela Merced as the fierce Hawkgirl.
With so many legendary characters coming together, it’s no wonder fans are buzzing with excitement. And with rumors of a storyline inspired by the Kingdom Come comics (seeThe Direct), where Superman faces a great tragedy that shakes him to his core, it seems like Gunn is delving deep into the emotional complexities of the Man of Steel.
Assessing James Gunn’s Bold Claim: Is the New DCU in Better Shape than the MCU’s Beginnings?
When it comes to planning in the world of DC movies, it seems like a lost art at times. From the haphazard transition from Zack Snyder’sMan of Steelto the ill-fatedJustice Leaguedebacle, it seemed like WB was grasping at straws in an attempt to replicate the success of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
But a new dawn is upon us in the form of James Gunn’s DC Universe. With a carefully thought-out plan and a group of dedicated writers, the DCU is set to soar to new heights. Gunn himself compared the development of this franchise to the early days of the MCU.
Like a master architect, Gunn and his team are weaving a tapestry of interconnected stories and characters, much like the sprawling world ofGame of Thronesor the galaxy far, far away inStar Wars. And at the heart of it all is Superman, the iconic hero who will be taking center stage in Gunn’s directorial debut in the DCU. ThePeacemakercreator toldComic Book:
We are telling a big huge central story that is like Marvel Studios, except for I think that we’re a lot more planned out than Marvel did from the beginning because we’ve gotten a group of writers together to work that story out completely. But we’re also creating a universe that is like Star Wars where there are different times and different places, different things, or like Game of Thrones, where characters are a little bit more morally complex.
Ergo, the DC Universe is expected to undergo a transformation like never before.
