James Gunn is bringing Superman back. The director announced a sequel titled “Superman: Man of Tomorrow”, set for release July 9, 2027, roughly two years after this summer’s Superman hit theaters. Gunn shared the news on Instagram alongside a comic-style image of Superman leaning against Lex Luthor in a kryptonite-powered green warsuit. The title comes from a late-’90s Superman comic series and a 2020 animated film. Gunn’s 2025 live-action Superman, starring David Corenswet as Superman and Nicholas Hoult as Luthor, was praised for embracing classic comic-book style in a world where Superman is the latest metahuman.
