Following Monday's first official look at Lex Luthor's warsuit in Man of Tomorrow, we have a new, less official look at Superman's costume in the superhero sequel. Video from Man of Tomorrow's production shows David Corenswet in action and in a new Superman suit. The suit also seems to fit more snugly than it did in Superman and may be made from thicker material.

Don't count on one of the early DCU heroes showing up again in the future as James Gunn continues to form his vision for Warner Bros. and DC Studios. When the poorly-received Suicide Squad hit theaters in 2016, leaving David Ayer to walk away entirely, it took Gunn's reboot, The Suicide Squad in 2021, to reinvigorate a franchise with tons of potential. After all, it was headlined by high-profile talent like Margot Robbie, Sir Idris Elba and John Cena, and also Joel Kinnama

On Dec. 10, 2025, the official Twitter (or X) account of Supergirl shared a link to a YouTube page counting down the online premiere of the DC movie's first trailer , which will be available to wat

Zack Snyder is relentless , as James Gunn is discovering on a daily basis after taking over the creative process of DC Studios . The 2025 summer blockbuster Superman sent fans of the Snyderverse and Henry Cavill's Man of Steel into an uproar, in large part due to Gunn's decision to reverse The Rock's efforts to return Cavill to the DCEU for Black Adam (and beyond) after a contentious split from the studio. Fong's relationship with Snyder stretches back to their time togeth

One of the easiest ways to get an argument going amongst DC fans is to bring up the Black Adam movie. You'll instantly see two things happen simultaneously amongst the crowd: faces light up with memories of a film they think was unfairly bashed by critics and fans, or faces turn to scowls ready to reinvigorate their disdain for it; but there's at least one thing nearly everyone can agree on, and that's the fact Pierce Brosnan was superb in debuting Dr. Fate to the masses bef
