Merchandise for Superman is slowly starting to find its way into stores and a new trailer surely can't be that far away. In the meantime, a new look at the DCU's Man of Tomorrow has been revealed on the packaging for a kid's toothbrush.

It's an admittedly random place to see Supes but we'd bet on the iconic superhero being all over store shelves this summer. 

Despite the DC brand's struggles in recent years, Superman (and Batman) remain its most easily marketable characters. Putting the spotlight on the character like this is a wise move by DC Studios. 

Will it translate to all-important box office revenue? That remains to be seen, especially as Superman is sandwiched between Jurassic World Rebirth and The Fantastic Four: First Steps

A new Superman promo hyping up the NBA on TNT has also been released. In that, filmmaker James Gunn and actor David Corenswet hang out with Steel star, and sporting legend, Shaquille O'Neal as he admires the hero's new suit. 

Gunn has also shared several outtakes from the video and the trio clearly had a lot of fun making this. It's a shame there's no new footage from Superman, but Warner Bros. Discovery is still putting the full might of its brands behind the upcoming reboot to raise as much awareness as possible.

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.

That's legit the worst superman suit put to film 😭

Also I thought Gunn was short, he looks near the same height as david here.🤔

Looks fantastic, the suit is so much better than Snyderman's and has all of the right parts and colors, I am just not a fan of the collar, but the rest is great and even the collar doesn't look bad here.

In Gunn We Trust!

@Pictilli - You remind me of those people who claim to be happy in their new relationship but keep talking about their ex. Just say you like the suit.

@Highflyer - I’ll def give it to Herman/shinzo/pictilli has been pretty consistent with his dislike for the Snyder-universe and his love for Gunn and this new version.

@epc1122 - Don’t forget Counterpoint. He was really burning up the anti-Semitism back then.

epc1122 - 2/16/2025, 3:11 PM
@RolandD - that’s really besides the point. He won’t change his beliefs but hopefully he can tone down the rhetoric. I mean how many times can one person get banned and have to make a new profile before you learn? But anyways, deep down most people are good, he’s just so set in his ways and thinking. But he has always been a fan of this new take even though there’s been minimal information, story, and visuals.
RolandD
RolandD - 2/16/2025, 3:28 PM
@epc1122 - Agreed. Like you said, I think he’s just toned down his comments, but they still bubble up sometimes, just not as bad as they used to be.
epc1122
epc1122 - 2/16/2025, 3:54 PM
@RolandD - yeah, he tends to repeat almost all of the same points so it’s almost obvious it’s the same person. Anyways, hopefully when he watches this new take it lives up to his expectations.
RolandD
RolandD - 2/16/2025, 4:08 PM
@epc1122 - And I am hoping it lives up to my expectations and yours as well

epc1122 - 2/16/2025, 4:17 PM
@RolandD - agreed but I can find something to like in most versions of Superman. I understand that Superman has been around for so long and there are so many different versions and incarnations that there really is no one perfect version. I just hope I enjoy most of the movie. Really love the trailer and most of what I’ve seen so far. But I will say, I think the suit is a bit too baggy and Corenswet looks more like Superman in real life. Too much of the all star Superman look where he’s more bulky compared to looking in shape. Getting used to the collar but still prefer the collar gone. It is what it is.
RolandD
RolandD - 2/16/2025, 7:25 PM
@epc1122 - yeah, I would prefer the customer was more for fitting and I’m not thrilled with the lines and I would prefer the classic collar. That said, I believe the trunks fell on the suit, the colors are perfect and he’s actually even got the yellow S emblem on his cape. The story and characterization is going to be the most important thing which I think is pretty much what you’re saying as well.

@RolandD - I just can’t wait for the movie. From what I’ve been reading, it seems like Gunn is really trying to celebrate and incorporate a lot of the Superman mythology that’s come before but at the same time trying to bring something new and fresh which is no easy task. The music alone from the trailer has me super pumped!!
RolandD
RolandD - 2/16/2025, 8:36 PM
@epc1122 - I agree. I think he has respect for the character and this is not going to be like a GotG movie except for in the area of heart. He knows how to play the heart strings with meaningful moments in my opinion. He’s my favorite superhero and I have very high hopes for this movie.

epc1122 - 2/16/2025, 8:43 PM
@RolandD - I agree, I just can’t wait. I was disappointed Superman and Lois was canceled but understood why. If I had my way there would be a Superman movie series, a tv series, and comics that continue past versions of the character. Even better, for shows/movies from the past where the story was left up in the air, either an episode or a movie to end the story.
RolandD
RolandD - 2/16/2025, 8:55 PM
@epc1122 - Maybe I am getting way ahead of myself but I think this has the potential to be the best superman movie ever. Christopher Reeve was fantastic as Superman and as Clark Kent and I don’t know that that can be topped, but this movie is being made by someone who loves comic books, who loves superheroes, has a passion for it. I hope I’m not setting myself up for a big disappointment, but like I keep saying, I have high hopes for this movie.

@RolandD - I think Bryan singer only had a passion for for Superman 1, Snyder had a passion for the character but wanted something new and grounded, and Gunn has a passion for the comics and the movies. I’m definitely excited to see gunns take but I hope it’s not too silver age where there’s new/odd powers but def looking forward to the sci fi aspects and the heart.

Pictilli - 2/16/2025, 9:38 PM
@RolandD - Gunn's Superman will be the best since the original Reeve film. Watch.
RolandD
RolandD - 2/17/2025, 12:00 AM
@Pictilli - I expect it will be too.

They should definitely take a couple pages from the Richard Pryor ERA of the Christopher Reeve FILM, "Superman III', I believe, and follow through with what that film intended, but this time, actually stick the landing, by bringing some wholesomeness, warmth, and timeless harmless Comedy, to the franchise; mixing seriousness with comic elements that enhances, the mood/tone, without taking away from the story's narrative drive.

When I see the suit, I can hear the sound of velcro
