Superman Filming Wrapped Says Director James Gunn

Superman Filming Wrapped Says Director James Gunn

As a seasoned gamer and comic book enthusiast with decades of experience under my belt, I must say that the news about James Gunn‘s Superman movie wrapping up filming has filled me with an unparalleled level of excitement! Having grown up with Christopher Reeve’s portrayal of the Man of Steel, I can confidently say that this new iteration promises to carry on the legacy in a fresh and captivating way.


As a die-hard fan, I can’t help but share the exciting news that James Gunn himself announced on social media that the filming for his Superman movie featuring David Corenswet has officially come to an end!

About two weeks back, Gunn affirmed that a few more weeks remained for the filming of the newest version of Man of Steel, as they completed shooting in Cleveland. True to his promise, here we are. (In this rephrased version, I’ve used “affirmed” instead of “confirmed,” and made the sentence structure simpler and clearer.)

As a gamer putting pen to paper, here’s my take:

Superman continues his legacy

Under the leadership of director James Gunn, the character once known as Superman Legacy is poised to initiate a fresh chapter for DC movies. The past decade or so has seen a disorganized and fragmented state within the DC Universe, which has prompted a need for rejuvenation. Since Gunn’s arrival, significant changes have been enacted to revitalize the franchise.

The film’s summary goes: “Superman narrates his personal tale about embracing his Kryptonian roots while growing up as Clark Kent from Smallville, Kansas. He symbolizes honesty, fairness, and the American spirit, all influenced by human compassion in a world that often considers kindness outdated.”

David Corenswet, known for his roles in Pearl and The Politician, will assume the lead role of Superman, while Rachel Brosnahan, famed for her work on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, takes on the character of Lois Lane. Additionally, Nicholas Hoult, Skyler Gisondo, María Gabriela De Faría, Sara Sampaio, Isabela Merced, Nathan Fillion, Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, and others have joined the cast as well.

Superman is set to release on July 11, 2025.
