\n\tIt\u2019s \u201cUp, Up and Away!\u201d for \u201cSuperman: Man of Tomorrow<\/a>.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tJames Gunn<\/a> has revealed the comic book sequel has started production, with the director sharing a photo from set of a chess board and Van Kull Prison badge for inmate A. Luthor (a.k.a. the villainous Lex Luthor), as well as a bag of Ruffles potato chips. <\/p>\n

\n\tDavid Corenswet is returning as the Man of Steel in \u201cSuperman: Man of Tomorrow,\u201d written and directed by Gunn. In the sequel, Superman is forced to team up with his adversary Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) as they work to defeat an even bigger threat: the super-intelligent antagonist Brainiac (Lars Eidinger).<\/p>\n

\n\tAdria Arjona recently joined the cast as Maxima, an alien queen who has been both an antagonist and a potential love interest for Superman in the comics. She\u2019ll be joined by the ensemble of Rachel Brosnahan (who is Superman\u2019s current beau Lois Lane), Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen), Sara Sampaio (Eve Teschmacher), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner), Edi Gathegi (Mister Terrific) and Aaron Pierre (John Stewart\/Green Lantern).<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cSuperman\u201d relaunched the Warner Bros. owned DC Universe last summer, earning above $600 million at the global box office to stand as that year\u2019s highest-grossing superhero adventure. \u201cMan of Tomorrow\u201d is scheduled to hit theaters on July 9, 2027. It\u2019s currently one of two DC adaptations that year, including director Matt Reeves and star Robert Pattinson\u2019s \u201cThe Batman Part II\u201d on Oct. 1. Before the Last Son of Krypton makes his way back to the big screen, DC has two other comic book tentpoles in 2026, \u201cSupergirl\u201d in June and \u201cClayface\u201d in October. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s \u201cUp, Up and Away!\u201d for \u201cSuperman: Man of Tomorrow.\u201d James Gunn has revealed the comic book sequel…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":402112,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[146,85,46,12959,397,111329],"class_list":{"0":"post-402111","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-entertainment","9":"tag-il","10":"tag-israel","11":"tag-james-gunn","12":"tag-movies","13":"tag-superman-man-of-tomorrow"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/402111","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=402111"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/402111\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/402112"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=402111"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=402111"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=402111"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
