Actor David Corenswet, who plays Superman, has discussed how James Gunn’s upcoming DC Universe (DCU) shares more resemblances with Star Wars than the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Corenswet is gearing up for the launch of his Superman film on July 11, which will be the inaugural movie in Gunn’s new DCU series called Gods and Monsters.
Superman’s David Corenswet draws DCU and Star Wars comparisons
More recently, David Corenswet elaborated on the similarities and differences between the DCU (DC Universe) and the Star Wars saga. In an engaging chat with Screen Rant, the actor expressed his admiration for the Star Wars galaxy.
Corenswet stated, “James compared the freshly introduced DCU to the Star Wars universe in a way that it’s not our reality but another realm, and it’s distinct from an origin story. Instead, you find yourself already immersed within this universe, discovering its secrets piece by piece as you explore.
Apart from his performance, the actor shared insights on why incorporating John Williams’ timeless Superman theme was essential for the forthcoming movie too.
For decades, Star Wars’ music by John Williams has significantly impacted me and broadened my appreciation for other films he scored. What makes my experience on this film particularly surreal is realizing I’m now part of a movie that features his iconic theme.
During an interview on the Happy, Sad, Confused podcast in 2024, Gunn discussed how the DCU (DC Universe) bears resemblance to Star Wars. He explained, “We’re constructing a connected universe, not just weaving stories.” Furthermore, he emphasized that his primary objective is to develop a comprehensive universe where people can immerse themselves completely. In comparison to Marvel, Gunn asserted that the DCU is more like Star Wars in its approach to universe creation.
