Man of Tomorrow’s post-production process still appears on track despite all the behind-the-scenes changes at Warner Bros. caused by the merger with Paramount. In fact, director James Gunn recently shared that Man of Tomorrow<\/a> had passed an important post-production editing milestone.<\/p>\n

The assembly cut of Man of Tomorrow is complete <\/p>\n

On Threads, James Gunn was recently asked by user matthagen69 if the assembly cut for Man of Tomorrow was complete. Gunn quickly replied with a resounding “Yep!”<\/a> giving a hint as to where the Superman sequel is currently in post-production. An assembly cut is the first draft of a film edit in which shots are laid out in order and the overall structure begins to take shape<\/p>\n

In a visual effects-heavy film like Man of Tomorrow, there’s still a lot of work to do after the assembly cut stage beyond trimming unneeded footage. While this confirmation is a fairly minor update in the grand scheme of things, it’s still good to know that the movie’s post-production process remains on track amid all the major shake-ups at Warner Bros. Its merger with Paramount to create Skydance<\/a> is imminent, and some major leadership changes are happening as a result.<\/p>\n

Notably, Michael De Luca and Pamela Abdy, the co-CEOs of Warner Bros. Pictures who helped convince James Gunn and Peter Safran to spearhead DC Studios, are exiting the company. Thankfully for DC fans, Gunn and Safran will remain<\/a> at the company after the merger. As such, it appears Gunn will see Man of Tomorrow’s production through to the end and is actively working on the movie.<\/p>\n

Man of Tomorrow is still slated for release in theaters on July 9, 2027. The only other DC Studios movies with firm release dates are Clayface<\/a> (out on Oct. 23), The Batman Part 2<\/a> (out Feb. 18, 2028), and Dynamic Duo<\/a> (out Sept. 22, 2028).<\/p>\n
