The first movie in the newly-created series called the DC Universe is titled simply Superman, but will be known in the future as James Gunn's Superman. The writer, director, and producer is also the co-CEO of DC Studios. The DCU is said to be intended as a "soft reboot" of the less-than-stellar movies in the DC Extended Universe like Man of Steel or Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Superman will star David Corenswet as Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.
The trailer begins with a beat-up Superman, as if someone has thrown a chunk of kryptonite at him. But who's there to save the day? Krypto! Yes, this movie will have a dog, and that makes it a hit among other Superman films right out of the starting gate. While Superman will obviously battle Lex Luthor, the stated premise of the film is Clark Kent's journey in reconciling his alien origins with his Kansas upbringing. We will find out more when Superman opens in theaters on July 11, 2025. -via Metafilter
