James Gunn shares exciting update about upcoming Superman movie

James Gunn has shared an exciting update about his upcoming Superman movie.

On Wednesday, the American filmmaker revealed on his Threads account that he had wrapped up filming for the highly anticipated movie, Superman: Man of Tomorrow.

"That's a wrap on principal photography for Man of Tomorrow," James wrote. "Truly a joyful experience and I have immense gratitude to my cast and crew."

For those unversed, the upcoming sequel to 2025's Superman will be released in cinemas on July 9, 2027.

James previously described Superman as the hardest movie he had ever made.

"This was the hardest movie I’ve ever made," the filmmaker said on the Variety Awards Circuit Podcast. "The next hardest was probably the first Guardians. With Guardians, you were building a corner of the universe that felt completely different from everything else Marvel was doing at the time."

"Here, I was reorienting something everyone already thinks they understand. Strangely, it’s the most comic-book-driven thing I’ve ever done. More than any of my other superhero films," he continued.

"Everyone in the world thinks something different about Superman. Everybody knows who he is," added James. "There were all the eyes on us — on DC, on the DCU, on everything. That pressure was real.
