The film garnered rave reviews from critics and audiences alike. As of the time of writing, Superman holds an 83% &#8220;Certified Fresh&#8221; rating via review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes, as averaged across nearly 500 verified critical reviews of the film. Superman also boasts an even higher 90% rating via Rotten Tomatoes&#8217; audience-generated &#8220;Popcornmeter,&#8221; as averaged across more than 25,000 user submitted reviews.<\/p>\n<p>While Superman marked the DCU debuts of a whole host of superpowered heroes ranging from Nathan Fillion&#8217;s Guy Gardner, aka Green Lantern, to Anthony Carrigan&#8217;s Rex Mason, aka Metamorpho, returning writer-director and DC Studios co-head James Gunn has been quick to shut down baseless rumors regarding what characters might appear in the sequel. In response to the notion that <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbr.com\/steve-trevor-man-of-tomorrow-casting-rumor-debunked-james-gunn\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Man of Tomorrow will feature Wonder Woman mainstay Steve Trevor<\/a>, Gunn offered a simple &#8220;Nope.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>                        Why One Seemingly Minor Character Could Mean Everything for Man of Tomorrow<\/p>\n<p>        <img width=\"1650\" height=\"928\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Frank Grillo Rick Flag Sr DCU header\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/frank-grillo-rick-flag-sr-dcu-header.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/frank-grillo-rick-flag-sr-dcu-header.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbr.com\/frank-grillo-rick-flag-sr-man-of-tomorrow-confirmed\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Superman and Peacemaker star Frank Grillo<\/a>, who portrays acting ARGUS director Rick Flag Sr., promised that the character &#8220;is a big part of the sequel&#8217;s story&#8221; while discussing Man of Steel. &#8220;So I&#8217;m excited about that,&#8221; Grillo added. Whereas this would otherwise be a fun tidbit about the film ahead of its release otherwise, the events of Peacemaker Season 2 coupled with Grillo&#8217;s statement may have clued audiences in to exactly what kind of story Man of Steel will have to tell when it arrives.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbr.com\/peacemaker-season-2-finale-lowest-rated-episode\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">During Peacemaker Season 2&#8217;s finale<\/a>, John Cena&#8217;s titular antihero was thrust into the vast expanse of the alternate dimension known as Salvation as the first test subject in the grand experiment to turn it into a superhuman prison. Though Flag Sr. obviously did this to exact revenge against Peacemaker for killing his son in The Suicide Squad, it also opened the door for what could be a live-action adaptation of DC Comics&#8217; fan-favorite Salvation Run series.<\/p>\n<p>If Grillo&#8217;s Flag Sr. is indeed a major part of Man of Tomorrow, and his character is intent on continuing to use Salvation as a superhuman prison dimension, he could very well be gunning for Superman when the film arrives. At the same time, there could be a whole world of other heroes and villains to be set free when that time comes, which has only furhter fueled online speculation as to the film&#8217;s story.<\/p>\n<p>Man of Tomorrow is currently slated to soar into theaters on Jul. 9, 2027.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nicholas Hoult tacitly confirms when the Man of Tomorrow is set to begin filming, and it is coming&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":183405,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[93,61,60,270],"class_list":["post-183404","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-movies","tag-entertainment","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-movies"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183404","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=183404"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/183404\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/183405"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=183404"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=183404"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=183404"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
