The final trailer for James Gunn's reinterpretation of "Superman" leaves no doubt about its intention to shake things up, quite literally. Warner Bros. has unveiled the latest preview for this DC Studios production, set to captivate audiences in theaters from July 11th. Starring David Corenswet in the title role, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, the film delves deep into the life of the iconic superhero who journeyed from the doomed planet Krypton to Earth, grappling with his extraordinary abilities while masquerading as the mild-mannered journalist, Clark Kent.
In this gripping trailer, Superman is sternly warned to "cease your foolish antics," to which he retorts with unwavering determination, "I'm not fooling around. I'm engaged in crucial matters." The scene transitions to a bone-chilling moment where Superman's punch sends teeth flying, seemingly smacking into the camera lens, adding an unsettling realism to the proceedings.
Moreover, the preview features Guy Gardner (portrayed by Nathan Fillion) menacingly informing Superman, "Make a wrong move, Big Blue," ratcheting up the tension to fever pitch.
The release of "Superman" marks a critical juncture for Warner Bros., along with DC Studios' helmsmen James Gunn and Peter Safran, who serve as producers on this ambitious project. The ensemble cast also boasts notable names like Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Terence Rosemore as Otis, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, and María Gabriela de Faría as The Engineer.
Previously unveiled footage hinted at a vulnerable Superman being rescued by his loyal canine companion, Krypto, who drags him to the safety of the Fortress of Solitude. As Superman expresses gratitude to a robotic crew for their assistance, one of them responds coldly, "Your thanks are unnecessary, sir, for they would be unappreciated."
Earlier this year, Gunn joined his stars on the CinemaCon stage, where Corenswet reflected on the honor of embodying the Man of Steel. "It is a profound privilege to play a character so ingrained in the collective consciousness," the actor noted, underscoring the gravity of his role.
