New DC Universe architect James Gunn offers a progress update on Superman: Legacy, his reboot movie of the Man of Steel set for a 2025 release.
Superman: Legacy just got an update from scribe James Gunn. New DC Studios co-CEO Gunn has been hard at work on the Superman movie reboot for the new DC Universe, with the movie being the first project to be revealed — although unnamed at the time — last December. Now, following the DCU slate reveal, Gunn updates the status of his Superman: Legacy script with the movie set for a 2025 release.
Gunn answered a fan on Twitter and revealed that he is currently "very far" into the Superman: Legacy script. SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY Superman: Legacy being far along is not strange, as Gunn recently revealed he was hired to write the upcoming DC Universe Superman movie over six months ago, long before he became one of DC's top executives. The long time Gunn has had to develop the best script possible is perfect, as DC needs its Superman reboot to be a hit.
Gunn made waves last year when he announced that Cavill would not be returning as Clark Kent in the new DC Universe. The idea behind the decision is to have the Superman reboot movie focus on Clark Kent at an earlier point in his life, with one report claiming the character will be around 25 years old in the movie — hence why Cavill could not play him.
The main criticisms surrounding the characterization of Cavill's Superman in the DCEU are related to how Superman did not feel like his more hopeful persona from the comics. Superman: Legacy aims to change that by veering the DC Universe Superman away from the darker storylines and character choices present in the DCEU.
