James Gunn’s “Superman” is finally revealed in a first epic trailer.
While we sense public weariness with superhero films (Marvel no longer attracts crowds like the Avengers), DC Comics begins its transformation in 2025. James Gunn, director of Guardians of the Galaxy (of the Marvel muse therefore) has the difficult task of resurrecting the studio which was able to bring us iterations of Batman or Wonder Woman.
This resurrection begins with Supermandirected and written by Gunn. The Kryptonian Clark Kent returns to service in a new film, the trailer for which was unveiled on December 19, 2024. No origin story on the program, but a reflection on the balance between his life as a superhero and his human life. On the program for these first images: a defeated Superman (!), explosions, a first glimpse of Lois, Lex Luthor, the dog Krypto but also the other DC super-villains that the hero is preparing to face, such as Hawkgirl, Mister Terrific or Guy Gardner.
Succeeding Henry Cavill and Christopher Reeves, it is the actor David Corenswet, seen on Netflix in Hollywood And The Politicianand at the cinema in Twisters And Pearlwho dons the blue and red Kryptonian costume. Rachel Brosnahan, who won the Golden Globe for Best Actress for The Fabulous Mrs. Maiselgives him the answer as Lois Lane. Nicholas Hoult (Lex Luthor), Nathan Fillion (Green Lantern) and Wendell Pierce (Perry White) are also in the cast of the film, which is scheduled for release in theaters on July 9, 2025.
