James Gunn has unveiled his super-vision for the future of DC’s superhero films with Superman (2025). But the big question is – is it super or #supersh*t?
In this episode, we’re diving deep into everything Superman, from Lois Lane and Lex Luthor to Krypto the super-dog. We discuss our thoughts on Gunn’s direction for the DC Universe, what worked, what didn’t, and whether this will be the biggest release of the year.
Superman (2025) introduces a fresh take on the iconic superhero, with David Corenswet donning the cape as Clark Kent, and Rachel Brosnahan playing Lois Lane. Gunn promises a more grounded and human-focused Superman, setting him apart from previous interpretations. Early reviews have been mixed, with many praising the film’s strong performances, especially from the lead cast, while others are divided on the film’s pacing and direction.
Critics have highlighted Gunn’s ability to blend heartfelt storytelling with epic action sequences, but some have questioned if this new DC era can truly compete with the powerhouse films of Marvel. Is this Superman ready to lead the DC Universe, or has it missed the mark? We’re unpacking all the super spoilers and giving our full thoughts on this major release.
