James Gunn was recently questioned about the number of Superman films he has planned for the DC Universe (DCU). His upcoming film, which features Superman, marks the first cinematic installment in this franchise. Given its success at the box office and with critics, it will likely influence the direction of future DCU productions.
What James Gunn says about more Superman movies in DCU
At the premiere of Superman on Monday, Variety asked Gunn how many Superman films he planned to make. However, it seemed like he misunderstood the question or deliberately avoided answering, responding instead with, “I’ve got them all.
James Gunn says “Superman” is the “most comic book movie I’ve ever made.”

As a passionate gamer, let me tell you that when it comes to Superman, I’ve crafted a film that feels like it leapt straight from the pages of a comic book. The comics have always been my inspiration, and I believe that this is the most authentic comic book adaptation I’ve ever attempted. It might even be the first true comic book movie I’ve made, considering the deep-rooted influence the comics have had on me. Reading those comic books as a kid filled me with joy, and I wanted to share that same feeling in this film.
According to what’s been shared earlier, the success of Superman’s movie is crucial, with potential follow-ups depending on its performance. In a conversation with GQ, Gunn dismissed rumors suggesting that the film needed to earn $700 million to be considered successful, labeling them as baseless and absurd. He further clarified, “It doesn’t have to be as big a deal as people are making it out to be.
In June 2025, Gunn suggested during a separate interview that his upcoming project might not be a traditional Superman sequel. “What I’m working on does involve…yes, yes, yes, yes,” said the director. “But is it a straight-up Superman sequel? Not necessarily,” he clarified. However, he did confirm that we can expect to see David Corenswet reprising his role as Superman within the next two years.
Superman comes out in U.S. theaters on July 11, 2025.
