James Gunn's 'Superman' Takes Flight With Full Trailer
Fans have been eagerly awaiting to see James Gunn's Superman hit theaters. The new film is not only set to introduce a new version of the titular character, but it will also act as a launchpad for the all-new DC Universe. Now, fans can get their clearest look at the film yet, with the all-new full trailer for Superman shared below.
The footage finds actor David Corenswet in the role of Superman, also known as Clark Kent, and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. Actor Nicholas Hoult will play Lex Luthor in the film. Other cast members include Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Skyler Gisondo, Sara Sampaio, Maria Gabriela de Faria, Wendell Pierce, Alan Tudyk, Pruitt Taylor Vince, and Neva Howell.
Here's the full official trailer for James Gunn's Superman :
As many fans have suspected, the film helmed by James Gunn will be quite different than other recent depictions of the character from filmmaker Zack Snyder. However, Gunn appears to be taking the character back to its roots, with additional inclusions of other elements from different comics and animated projects to make this one of the most complete depictions of Superman yet.
With several other superheroes being introduced, all of which will help flesh out this new DC Universe, it looks like it'll be an exciting time at the theater. A number of other such projects are currently in the works, including Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow and a movie all about the Batman villain 'Clayface,' so hopefully Superman succeeds in launching this new franchise with a bang.
The new film Superman will be headed to theaters in just a few months on July 11, 2025. Stay tuned to ScreenGeek for any additional updates regarding this first highly-anticipated installment of the DC Universe, aka the DCU, as we have them. If this trailer is any indication, then fans should certainly enjoy this new take on the beloved comic book hero.

Fortnite's Leaked Chapter 6, Season 3 Battle Pass Skins Have Yet Another Superhero Ad
Fortnite I'm not sure exactly when the switch was flipped here, but at some point, Fortnite went from adding IPs that created a cool metaverse vibe to feeling like an overstuffed ad-based universe. I get that the lines are blurry, but more than ever it feels a bit exhausting when they're doing stuff like scraping the barrel of Star Wars relevancy with Darth Jar Jar skins. Now, that's about to happen again with Chapter 6, Season 3, which will arrive after the Death Star sabotage event tomorrow, June 7. The leaked theme of the season is reportedly about superheroes, and joins at least a hundred superhero skins we already have in the game, with some Fortnite original skins given a superhero twist in this season. But of course, more existing superheroes are coming. The ad in question will be the release of a DCU David Corenswet Superman skin modeled after the actor, ahead of the James Gunn film launching on July 11, which will be in the middle of the season, called 'Super.' Also the super-dog, Krypto, will appear in the season. No word on other characters yet like Lex Luthor, Mr. Terrific, Hawkgirl or others who appear in the film, but it's possible they may be coming down the line. There has already been a Clark Kent/Superman skin in Fortnite before this, but that was a more generic, comic-inspired version rather than this specific Corenswet one which, if you ask me, looks a little odd. Superman is not the only superhero arriving in this themed season. One other one that's been confirmed is DC's Robin, Tim Drake edition which many fans are curious about, and some wanted a different one, it seems. There are almost certainly going to be more superhero skins as the season goes on, but these are just the ones that have leaked so far, in addition to some concept art-drafted skins and some updates versions of old favorites. There are also upcoming collabs with Squid Game (naturally to coincide with the release of the third season) and One-Punch Man. FEATURED | Frase ByForbes™ Unscramble The Anagram To Reveal The Phrase Pinpoint By Linkedin Guess The Category Queens By Linkedin Crown Each Region Crossclimb By Linkedin Unlock A Trivia Ladder Fortnite's Star Wars season had a rather low playercount, the lowest for the game in quite some time, and many took issue with both its theme and game mechanics. That will all end with the Death Star (maybe?) blowing up part of the map or being blown up itself in tomorrow's event. I get that I'm picking on DC and the Superman movie here, and it's not just Fortnite who does this, but these crossovers are feeling increasingly less cool and more cynical as time goes on. I don't think I'm alone in thinking that. Follow me on Twitter, YouTube, Bluesky and Instagram. Pick up my sci-fi novels the Herokiller series and The Earthborn Trilogy.

James Gunn Shuts Down SUPERMAN Runtime Rumors Says WB "Couldn't Even If They Wanted To' — GeekTyrant
In a recent exchange on Instagram Threads, a fan asked the DC Studios co-head, James Gunn, to confirm whether the Superman runtime clocked in at 2 hours and 9 minutes. Gunn's reply? His response: 'Inclusive of credits/post credits the runtime is 2 hours 9 minutes.' Then a fan threw out the rumor claiming that Warner Bros. had asked Gunn to trim the film's length. To that, Gunn said: 'Zero truth to that. And they couldn't even if that's something that they wanted to [do]. It's a DC Studios film.' So there you have it, Superman is a James Gunn project through and through, and no studio scissors are coming near it. They apparently have now power at DC Studios. This marks Gunn's first directorial entry as the head of DC Studios, and it's a big one. The film stars David Corenswet as the new Man of Steel, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as the bald and brilliant Lex Luthor. The cast also includes Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, and Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific. Superman is the first solo film for the iconic hero since 2013's Man of Steel , and it will lay the foundation for a brand-new DC cinematic universe. Superman will tell the story of 'Superman's journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. 'He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned. 'It's set in a world very different from ours and far removed from the DCEU. Heroes have been around for ages, and we'll see how it affected this world's history and has shaped the DCU." The movie is scheduled for a theatrical release on July 11, 2025.
