Man Not of Steel: First Trailer for James Gunn's Superman Released

Warner Bros. has unveiled the first trailer for its new DC Universe headliner. The reboot of Superman from James Gunn will hit theaters in July 2025.

The director fits several key episodes and characters into the dense two-minute clip. For example, Lex Luthor, played by Nicholas Hoult, appears, as well as other iconic heroes like Green Lantern and Mr. Terrific. There are also some new things, such as Superman's fortress and his dog Krypto. The latter, apparently, will be an extremely useful ally for his owner, who is just getting used to his role and powers.

The film stars David Corenswet, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult and Isabela Merced.

The new Superman will premiere on July 11, 2025.

Earlier, director James Gunn explained why the new adaptation decided to bring back the controversial element of the superhero's costume.
