The Superman teaser trailer broke records when it was released last December, and filmmaker James Gunn has today announced plans to keep the hype train rolling with a "World Tour," which will see him and the cast take the movie across the globe.
The DC Studios co-CEO shared the news in a video posted to his X and Instagram accounts. That was accompanied by a new poster featuring the Man of Steel and a list of dates, likely referring to when those countries will host premieres and fan events.
This is a similar shot to the one featured on the teaser poster, and we have to believe more like this will be coming our way in the weeks ahead. Character posters will be a must for fans, and we expect those and more to land when tickets go on sale.
We also have a new featurette for Superman teasing David Corenswet's transformation into Superman. That also includes a few new snippets of footage from both the movie and behind the scenes.
During a recent interview with Wonderland, the actor revealed how he reacted to the news he'd play the DCU's Superman. "I stepped away and answered the phone, and [Superman's director] James Gunn said, 'David, it’s James Gunn.' And I said, 'Can you prove that?' Because I was in a suspicious mood," he joked.
"I was able to tell my mom, aunt, uncle, sister, and wife before the news was made public," the actor said. "The last person I got to tell, a few hours after it was available publicly, was my high school theatre teacher, who was the one to convince me to audition for The Juilliard School and is a very close friend. He texted back, 'I’m doing a radio show for this theatre thing I’m involved with in Philly. I’ll call you back.'"
"So, when he was done, I called him and asked, 'How’s it going?' He replied, 'Oh, it’s great! I was talking about this and that David, you know how it is...' I then said, 'Oh, did you tell them what it feels like to have your high school theatre student playing the next Superman?'" Corenswet continued. "And the phone just went dead. Then he exclaimed—I don’t really remember what he said, but it was a really great phone call."
