The Big Picture Reimagining Superman as a villainous character sure sounds like an ambitious idea, but David Yarovesky took on the challenge with his 2019 horror film, Brightburn. While the movie has left audiences divisive since its release to theaters , some — at one point — have expected the film to spawn an immediate sequel, especially considering the movie's conclusion hinted at a potential continuation of Brandon's story and the evil he is yet to become.

On Threads, a fan asked Gunn about a possible sequel, as the first film, while "fantastic," left "so many unanswered questions." The co-CEO of DC Studios then simply responded: "No plans at all for this right now.

Brightburn Was an Interesting Superman Makeover Close Brightburn, which starred Jackson A. Dunn as the title character, offers a unique perspective on Superman's origin story. The movie centers on Brandon, a young boy who is found inside a crashed spacecraft in Kansas. Discovered by a loving couple who had been unable to conceive a child, the boy appears to be a gift sent from above.

In the end, Brandon ends up killing both of his parents, indicating that he won't stop at nothing to do what his vile heart desires. The film managed to tell a terrifying story, but despite having a compelling premise, it failed to delve much deeper. The characters and the story as a whole lacked depth in many ways. While the first one was not a critical success, the film's ending and credits sequence established an interesting Brightburn cinematic universe.

In addition to Dunn, Brightburn also starred Elizabeth Banks and David Denman as Brandon's adoptive parents, Tori and Kyle Breyer. The rest of the cast includes Meredith Hagner, Matt Jones, Becky Wahlstrom, Emmie Hunter, Gregory Alan Williams, Jennifer Holland, and more.
