‘Superman’, the new DC Studios’ first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theatres worldwide this July from Warner Bros. Pictures.
In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC Universe with a singular blend of epic action, humour, and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.
DC Studios heads Peter Safran and James Gunn are producing the film, which Gunn also directs from his own screenplay, based on characters from DC, with Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.
The film stars David Corenswet (Twisters, Hollywood) in the dual role of Superman/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult (X-Men films, Juror #2) as Lex Luthor. The cast also includes Edi Gathegi (For All Mankind), Anthony Carrigan (Barry, Gotham), Nathan Fillion (The Rookie, The Suicide Squad), Isabela Merced (Alien: Romulus), Skyler Gisondo (Licorice Pizza, Booksmart), Sara Sampaio (At Midnight), María Gabriela de Faría (The Moodys), Wendell Pierce (Selma, Tom Clancy’s Jack Ryan), Alan Tudyk (Andor), Pruitt Taylor Vince (Bird Box), and Neva Howell (Greedy People).
‘Superman’ is executive produced by Nikolas Korda, Chantal Nong Vo, and Lars Winther. Behind the camera, Gunn reunites with frequent collaborators, including director of photography Henry Braham, production designer Beth Mickle, costume designer Judianna Makovsky, and composer John Murphy, along with David Fleming (The Last of Us) and editors William Hoy (The Batman) and Craig Alpert (Deadpool 2, Blue Beetle).
‘Superman’ flies into theatres and IMAX on 9th July 2025 in the UK.
