Superman: Legacy:“Follows the titular superhero as he reconciles his heritage with his human upbringing. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way in a world that views kindness as old-fashioned,” reads the currently vague synopsis. James Gunn will direct and co-write the production alongside Joe Shuster and Jerry Siegal.

Other roles that have been cast include the lovable Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner aka Green Lantern, Isabela Merced as Shiera Sanders Hall aka Hawkgirl, and Anthony Carrigan as Rex Mason aka Metamorpho.

At this time,Superman: Legacyis slated to be released in cinemas on 11 July 2025. Though it’s never outside the realms of possibility that a release date may be pushed back, especially one that is at least a couple of years away.

The last movie to be part of the current DCEU isAquaman and the Lost Kingdomwhich releases in cinemas on 22 December 2023. It’s certainly an exciting time to be a DC fan, but I will still miss our Henry.
