Superman script available online<\/p>\n

Despite the uncertain future of the DCU after the Netflix-Warner Bros. merger goes through, the reboot of the shared universe has kickstarted with last year\u2019s Superman from James Gunn. Gunn\u2019s universe has done away with origin stories and has already established a number of characters. However, there is one tease at the end for the next film in the form of a cameo from Milly Alcock as Supergirl. <\/p>\n

Superman was well-received and would gross $616 million worldwide. Now, for you screenplay aficionados, James Gunn has posted his script for the movie online via his social media<\/a>. His post would simply read, \u201cFor your enjoyment, the Superman screenplay.\u201d Then, you can follow the link to read his script.<\/p>\n

Man of Tomorrow\u00a0details<\/p>\n

More development has been recently announced for Gunn\u2019s follow-up to Superman \u2014 Man of Tomorrow. The villainous character of Brainiac will finally be making his appearance in a live-action feature film with this movie. James Gunn has found his Brainiac in German actor Lars Eidinger. Gunn shared Eidinger\u2019s casting via\u00a0Instagram, saying,\u00a0\u201cIn our worldwide search for Brainiac in\u00a0Man of Tomorrow,\u00a0Lars Eidinger rose to the top. Welcome to the DCU, Lars.\u201d <\/p>\n

While speaking on the Howard Stern Show\u00a0earlier this year<\/a>, Gunn dropped a few story details.\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s a story about Lex Luthor and Superman having to work together to a certain degree against a much, much bigger threat,\u201d\u00a0he said.\u00a0\u201cIt\u2019s more complicated than that but. It\u2019s as much a Lex movie as it is a Superman movie. I relate to the character of Lex, sadly. I really wanted to create something extraordinary with the two of them. I just love the script so much.\u201d\u00a0Gunn may have even hinted at Brainiac\u2019s involvement with the\u00a0reveal of the script\u2019s title page<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Next up for the DCU<\/p>\n

The next\u00a0DCU<\/a>\u00a0project to be released in theaters will be\u00a0Supergirl<\/a>, which stars Milly Alcock (House of the Dragon) as Kara Zor-El, alongside Eve Ridley (3 Body Problem) as\u00a0Ruthye<\/a>, Matthias Schoenaerts (Rust and Bone) as\u00a0Krem of the Yellow Hill<\/a>, David Krumholtz (Oppenheimer) as\u00a0Zor-El<\/a>, Emily Beecham (1899) as\u00a0Alura<\/a>, and Jason Momoa as\u00a0Lobo<\/a>, a role he has longed to play for years. The film will hit theaters on\u00a0June 26.<\/p>\n
