Mumbai Comic Con gets underway today, and Warner Bros. India has shared a photo of a statue promoting James Gunn's Superman.

The life-size statue features David Corenswet's Man of Steel (how good the likeness actually is is up for debate) alongside Krypto the Super-Dog. Some recent plot details revealed that Kal-El will be looking after Supergirl's boisterous pooch, who causes quite a bit of mischief and mayhem in the Fortress of Solitude.

One character who won't have much time for Krypto's shenanigans is Lois Lane.

"She's definitely not a dog person," Rachel Brosnahan told CBR in a recent interview. "I don't think she's an animal person. She has sh*t to do. She does not...Krypto is not her favourite character, I should say, in the new Superman film." 

We're not sure when we'll see a new trailer for Superman, but there's speculation that something might be released on April 18, which is Superman Day.

You can check out the recently-released 5-minute preview below.

Superman also Isabel Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mr. Terrific, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, and Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho.

Sara Sampaio is on board as Lex's assistant/lover Eve Teschmacher, Pruitt Taylor Vince and Neva Howell will play "Ma" and "Pa" Kent, and Milly Alcock's Supergirl has been confirmed to make her debut ahead of her own Woman of Tomorrow movie.

"And that’s a wrap," Gunn posted earlier this year when filming concluded. "God bless our cast and crew whose commitment, creativity, and hard work have brought this project to life. I set out to make a movie about a good man in a world that isn’t always so much. And the goodness and kindness and love I’ve encountered on a daily basis on the set has inspired me and thrust me forward when I felt too spent to move on my own.

Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. It has been an honor. The destination has been Superman, but the journey has been the toil and the laughter and the emotions and ideas and magic we’ve shared together on set - and for that I am forever grateful."

You can check out an updated synopsis for the movie below.

"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."

Man I can't say it enough, the trunks and the high collar don't work together... one or the other should have been left off.

Corenswet has won me over though. I enjoyed that extended clip.

@Conquistador - the collar has somewhat grown on me but still prefer a lower collar and I’m not opposed to trunks but these just seem too big. Routh’s trunks in Superman returns at times seemed too small in some scenes but I thought in crisis it was the perfect length.

@epc1122 - Corenswet's suit clearly take influence from the New 52 Superman, but putting th trunks on there ruined it. If they wanted to use it I feel something classic would have worked, even Cavill's suit would have worked with some sort of trunks.

@Conquistador - I dunno man. I like the suit, personally. Looks like ma Kent stitched it for him. Can't imagine he won't have an upgrade for film 2.

@Conquistador - I kind of see the latest suit as a combination of all star Superman and new 52. If I had to guess, the trunks were added last because from what I read, Corenswet convinced Gunn to add the trunks. In some instances I like the latest suit but in some shots it just looks too baggy. I don’t think just adding trunks to Cavills suit would look good. I’ve seen some fan made drawings of cavills suit with trunks where it could potentially work, but drawings don’t always translate well to real life. I think Corenswets suit has looked good in drawings but the trunks don’t appear as big and the suit doesn’t look as baggy. Do you have a favorite live action Superman suit?

@McMurdo - because of the thickness and the high collar of the suit, to me the suit looks more kryptonian or made from krypton rather than made by ma Kent. Or maybe it’s like my adventures of Superman where the suit is essentially kryptonian. but the trunks were made and added by ma Kent. I like that idea because I think it adds more meaning for Superman and he does come from krypton and raised on earth.

@epc1122 - best live action suit to me would be the BvS suit. The slight changes they made from the original were great in the lighting it was shot. They completely overdid the shiney muscle crap in Josstice League though. I think Corenswets would have been better than Cavill's though if they got rid of the trunks and used a belt with the yellow/gold and red.

@McMurdo - it just looks like a weird mash up of regal and wrestler dress up.

We'll see.

@Conquistador - for me I liked the justice league version but the way it was shot with Snyder and some of the promotional images. The deleted scene with Superman and Alfred I thought the suit looked great. I do like the Batman v Superman suit but I do think at times it looked too bulky. Some of the shots of Corenswets suit look great and other times I get deflated looking at it but as a whole it’s grown on me. For me though, there still hasn’t been one perfect suit but I like aspects of a lot of the different versions.

@Conquistador - yup totally agree. the collar makes it look like regal armor/uniform but the shorts make it look like he's wearing underwear over his regal armor. had it just been the regular suit with the trunks it wouldn't have been so obvious.

The collar needs to go and was the worst aspect of the New 52 suit. The suit needs the wide boatneck opening shirt for the cape to go into like the comics....other than that, it is an improvement in every way to the snyderverse and CW. It at least has the right parts and colors to it.
epc1122
epc1122 - 4/12/2025, 10:36 AM
@Pictilli - im surprised you think the collar is more important than the trunks. I think a suit shirt could still cover up this collar. I do like his there’s a slight opening to the neck with corenswets suit which is different than the new 52 version. Not sure why you can’t comment on this without bringing up the cw and the Snyderverse 🤷‍♂️

Pictilli - 4/12/2025, 10:41 AM
@epc1122 - I mean the entirety of the New 52 suit sucked, it needed the red trunks and yellow belt for color balance, shouldn't have been robo puzzle armor, etc., the collar and armor were just the pockets n pouches or leather long coat of its era. Ugly design.
epc1122
epc1122 - 4/12/2025, 10:47 AM
@Pictilli - oh I see, worst aspect but didn’t really like any parts of the suit. Sorry, I originally read it wrong thinking you thought most of the suit was ok but not the collar but we’ve discussed before how you think the trunks are extremely important aesthetically. While not the traditional Superman way and more iron man, I did like how the new 52 suit transformed kind of like nanotechnology which I know goes against the traditional Superman transformation. But if it’s kryptonian technology it does make sense. But yes, I know you don’t want the suit coming from krypton, it’s all good. 👍

Pictilli - 4/12/2025, 11:01 AM
@epc1122 - yeah, suddenly Superman's suit was like Green Lantern's where it magically materialized on him but as "technology"

The trunks seem too baggy from what I've seen so far but I think its actually the design of the belt that throws it off and how high up they sit.

Mofo's still complaining about the suit. I don't give a shit, I want a good movie. He'll get an upgrade for the sequel after the big battle. "BvS was the best suit" "not as good as Cavill's" lmao your colors are showing
