SUPERMAN: A New Look At James Gunn's DCU Movie Could Be Released Imminently

An international DC social media account has dropped an intriguing Superman tease today and it looks like we could get a new sneak peek as soon as this week! Find everything we know so far right here...

DC Studios released the first Superman trailer last December and the sneak peek quickly broke viewership records (all while confirming that, yes, people still care about the Man of Steel). 

With the reboot's July release date nearing, we anticipate seeing much more from the first DCU movie in the weeks ahead. New trailers and posters are somewhere on the horizon and it surely won't be too long before Superman adorns the cover of Empire Magazine. 

There's a lot of buzz on social media this morning as the DC Japan X account just shared the movie's logo along with the word "TOMORROW." When the post was published, it was around 7pm on Thursday evening in Japan, meaning something could be heading our way as soon as this Friday, March 21. 

If so, we'd imagine the official U.S./global social accounts will soon chime in with their own teases. Alternatively, this might be as simple as Superman news somehow tied to Japan - an upcoming event or release date update, for example - so we'd advise against getting too excited. 

The next Superman trailer is still expected to be released during CinemaCon in Las Vegas next month but attendees may get a separate, exclusive preview separate from whatever's - potentially - dropping tomorrow. 

"I want them to see the big silver-age science fiction stuff, the romance, the action beats, Krypto and the one really potent line in the trailer for me, the line that really moves me, is when he says 'Krypto take me home!'" Gunn said of the first teaser. "Then Krypto starts dragging Superman home and that at the end of the day what this is all about for me - this is about bringing the innate goodness of Superman and bringing it home."

"I want to bring this character home. I want to bring this battered world to a brighter place - bringing the healing home. Hopefully Superman can be a symbol of that. I think this is the right time for this movie and I am excited about people seeing the trailer but I am also excited about people seeing this as a true representation of the film," the filmmaker added.

Stay tuned for Superman updates as we have them.

Superman, DC Studios' first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from Warner Bros. Pictures.

In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.  

The movie stars David Corenswet in the dual role of Superman/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.

Also appearing are Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Skyler Gisondo, Sara Sampaio, María Gabriela de Faría, Wendell Pierce, Alan Tudyk, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Neva Howell, and Milly Alcock.

Superman arrives in theaters on July 11, 2025.

This year is flying by. It's hard to believe we're nearing 3 months out from this movie releasing.

@TheWinkler - Yes. My wife and I were just saying that this morning. March is almost over and I'm was just getting used to writing 2022 on documents.

I'm a big movie lover and what's sad is nothing so far has been worth watching or worth talking about.

@WEAPONXOXOXO - Ne Zha 2. The most epic movie in a while. Try it when you see it in theaters, still rare sightings in the west

@TheWinkler - And it's almost April.

@WEAPONXOXOXO - Man, same. There have been several movies and series that I have said I was interested in checking out, but when time comes, I'm completely indifferent.

Tbf, the last year has been wild and I feel like all I do is work and sleep and when I get free time, I'd rather just spend it with my kid than watching something.

@TheWinkler - Ne Zha 2. Try it when you see it in a theater near you. You will thank me later

@TheWinkler - I'm still very excited about TFF.

@ObserverIO - Same! I actually work for a childcare center and am currently making a schedule/plan for our summer program, and a field trip to go see F4 is on the docket.

@TheWinkler - Same here. Either with the kids and when they go to bed I might game for 45 min-1 hour.
Maybe I'm getting old and I'm just starting to hate everything. ;)

@ObserverIO - Allow me thaw it, then.

Little girl in our Pre-K, who is only 4, told me that her favorite movie (and her parents confirmed this) is Batman and Robin, because "Poisonous Ivy" is so cool. So tomorrow, they're getting a pizza party with Batman and Robin and she squeezed when I told her that was the plan.

The second trailer is probably attached to snow white.

Hopefully its a new trailer. And one with a stronger soundtrack. Although this isn't the official, this captures the strength and spirit of Superman and I have seen several fan edits with this.

None of the publicity has worked because Gunn's bad casting and terrible costume choices overshadow everything.

@PartyKiller - lolz. This was funny

@PartyKiller - 57 million views say otherwise. ?si=zlb4kyZTD_Cf75Fb

Get used to the cast and costumes, you're probably gonna be seeing both for a LONG time...

@PartyKiller - Purposefully trying to make shit does seem like a weird choice. With even goofier marketing LOL

@Goldboink - I wasn’t alive in the 70’s so that’s irrelevant to the time stream I live in.

While we wait for Superman, see if you have Ne Zha 2 in your theaters and dont miss the opportunity to see something special.

@vectorsigma - bot advertising??
ObserverIO
ObserverIO - 3/20/2025, 10:01 AM
@vectorsigma - I'm sincerely down to give it a go, but I'd wanna watch the first movie and it's spin-off before going to see the sequel and I can't find them anywhere. Not to mention the fact that I'd need English language versions (either subbed or dubbed).

I'm glad it's doing well, but if they want to rival Endgame or Cameron's big three they're gonna have to meet the westerners halfway with availability and language.

@ObserverIO - i remember @bobevanz sharing a free YT link for the 1st one.

It is not accessible for me but let me see if I can get the link.

Anyway, I agree that they havent been promoting this well enough. You know these chinese productions, they are contented to keep it within themselves.

But having seen the great reaponse, i believe they are releasing it to a few countries in europe starting this weekend.

Also, it was released limitedly in the US last feb 14, unfortunately it was Cap4 release so now one knew about it (including me)

I doubt it’s a new trailer as of yet since the other regional accounts would have teased it too but the days still young in the U.S atleast so we’ll see.

Anyway can’t wait for more footage now that the vibe has been established , I hope we get more insight into the performances & character interactions in the next one!!.
