Despite my disdain for DC constantly rolling out remakes for their prime characters over the years, I’ll admit that I’m excited for what James Gunn could bring to a Superman story. We know he doesn’t play when it comes to killing characters, as evidenced in movies like Super, his DC Show Peacemaker and the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy. We also know we have the potential for horror, having written Zach Snyder’s Dawn of the Dead and his own Slither being a fun and twisted flick. Above all, we know he loves animals.
All I’m hoping to see is something new, something fun & exciting. That’s more than enough for me. The teaser shows that Clark’s not alone in all this. He’s got quite a bit of backup, which looks pretty cool.
Superman has a release date set for July 11 of next year.

I LOVED the look of this. I know Gunn from way back in his Troma days and have interacted with him several times since, and really am excited to see how he tells the origin story – I hope we don’t spend too much time with his early years as we’ve seen that many times – but I think he will find the balance, and what a supporting cast!

That is awesome! 🙂 I agree, in that I hope they go light on the origin tale. We all know it. I am curious on whether they’ll keep Johnathan in the picture (like the 90s Lois and Clark Show did) or if they’ll just have flashbacks. I also enjoyed that we started off with a hurt Superman. I loved that, and was like….”Wait, how we did end up here?!”. So far, it seems good! Fingers crossed.
