It's no secret that the 2024 movie release calendar is lacking in superhero movies. Deadpool & Wolverine is coming out at the end of the month, but between James Gunn and Peter Safran cooking up the new DC Universe and the Hollywood labor battles of 2023 delaying the slate of upcoming Marvel movies , comic book blockbusters have not been a big thing this year. All that being said, 2025 is set to be huge, and we are now exactly one year away from the release of Superman .
Featuring a stellar cast led by David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan , Superman will be arriving in theaters everywhere on July 11, 2025, and with that date now being exactly 365 days away, James Gunn has uploaded a celebratory post to Instagram. The movie is still in the midst of production, but the filmmaker is keeping an eye on the future: A post shared by James Gunn (@jamesgunn) A photo posted by on While Superman hasn't been completely absent from the big screen in recent years thanks to Henry Cavill 's performances in the DC Extended Universe, it has now been more than a decade since we last got to see a movie specifically centering on the red-and-blue-clad Kryptonian – the last one being Zack Snyder's Man of Steel from 2013. We don't know much of anything about the plot of the blockbuster, the cast of characters (including many staffers of The Daily Planet) suggests the movie will give us an intimate look into the world of Clark Kent along with plenty of superhero action.
Superman should be a special.
