“Look up!” It’s time for our first look. Warner Bros has revealed the first teaser trailer for James Gunn’s recent Superman movie – his fresh recent take on the “Man of Steel”, the “Last Son of Krypton”. Formerly known as Superman: Legacy, this movie follows Supes as he reconciles his heritage with his human upbringing in Kansas as Clark Kent. Written & directed by James Gunn, he cast David Corenswet (of “The Politician”, “We Own This City”, “Lady in the Lake”, Twisters) as Clark Kent / Superman this time. The impressive full ensemble cast includes Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, plus Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Sara Sampaio, María Gabriela de Faría, Wendell Pierce, Alan Tudyk, Pruitt Taylor Vince, & Neva Howell. Well here we go! This is a handsome introduction, featuring Krypto the Super Dog playing a major role as well. And tons of appearances including Green Lantern & Hawkgirl and others. This is exactly what I expect a recent Superman movie to look like – so far so good! Your thoughts on this footage?
Here’s the first official trailer (+ poster) for James Gunn’s Superman movie, direct from YouTube:
The superhero film explores Clark Kent / Superman’s (starring David Corenswet) journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his adoptive human family in Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way in a world that views this as old-fashioned. Superman, formerly known as Superman: Legacy, is directed by acclaimed American writer / filmmaker James Gunn, who now runs DC Studios and directed the movies Slither, Super, Guardians of the Galaxy, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, DC’s The Suicide Squad previously, plus this year’s Creature Commandos series; he also wrote the screenplay for Zack Snyder’s Dawn of the Dead film and Greg McLean’s The Belko Experiment. The screenplay is also by James Gunn; based on characters from DC Comics created by Jerry Siegel & Joe Shuster. Produced by Peter Safran and James Gunn for DC Studios. Warner Bros opens Gunn’s Superman movie in theaters worldwide on July 11th, 2025 next summer. First impression? Who’s ready?
