Next Movie in James Gunn's ‘Superman Saga' Gets Exciting Release Date Update
James Gunn recently spoke about the future of his 'Superman Saga' and hinted at progress on its next project. In a new interview at the Peacemaker Season 2 premiere, he teased work already underway. He also noted its connection to upcoming DCU plans. James Gunn's next Superman saga movie to begin filming soon In a recent chat with The Hollywood Reporter, James Gunn confirmed that he has completed a 'very, very worked out treatment' for the next story. He referred to it as the 'Superman Saga.' He stated, 'I'm working on that and hopefully going into production on that not too far away from today.' The filmmaker, who wrote and directed Superman, withheld the project's title and plot details. Gunn said Superman 'leads directly into Peacemaker' and added, 'It should be noted that this is for adults, not for children, but Superman leads into this show, and then we have the setting up of all of the rest of the DCU in this season of Peacemaker; it's incredibly important.' He also noted, 'Lots of guest stars coming up, lots of characters that are going to show up that we've already met in Superman.' Gunn is said to be developing a Superman sequel, which was reportedly described as part of the 'Superman Family.' While unconfirmed, speculation suggests the story may involve David Corenswet's Superman teaming up with Milly Alcock's Supergirl and Krypto. They could face Brainiac and/or The Authority. The next chapter may be a Superman and Supergirl sequel, possibly teaming them up. If production begins soon, it could be released in June–July 2027. Meanwhile, Peacemaker Season 2, starring John Cena and others, premieres August 21 on HBO Max. Cena said, 'Instead of standalone properties, all of the DCU is now connected, as you saw Peacemaker show up in Superman… it also has a lot to do with the DCU going forward.'
