Back in 2018, James Gunn was offered the chance to direct a Superman movie – but he turned it down in favor of The Suicide Squad, which released in 2021.

Fans are mere days away from seeing what James Gunn and the DC Universe have in store, and early word is super. Superman comes to theaters July 11, with early fan screenings happening July 8. In preparation, the social media embargo on press and influencers who’ve seen the film has now lifted, and the response is incredibly positive.

James Gunn's Superman movie launches the DC Universe in spectacular fashion, with a fun-filled romp that requires refreshingly little homework.
