It\u2019s no secret that Superman\u2019s David Corenswet<\/a> is a big guy. However, director James Gunn<\/a> recently revealed a trick they used in one Superman<\/a> scene to amplify just how big Corenswet is.<\/p>\n

What tricks did James Gunn use in Superman? <\/p>\n

In the director\u2019s commentary for the film\u2019s home release, Gunn revealed that in the scene where Clark Kent is walking into the Daily Planet\u2019s office building, they used an old movie trick to make him seem bigger. Gunn noted that the scene features mainly extras who were about 5\u20196\u2033 in height or under to help accentuate Corenswet\u2019s 6\u20194\u2033 frame.<\/p>\n

\u201cOne of the reasons we can see how big he is, is because I got all extras who were, I think, 5\u20196\u2033 or under,\u201d Gunn said in the commentary. <\/p>\n

As fans dive more into Superman, Gunn and co. at DC Studios are already working on the next film. As of now, little is known about Man of Tomorrow, outside of the fact that it will release on July 9, 2027, and that Corenswet, Hoult, and Rachel Brosnahan are all set to return for the movie.<\/p>\n

The Man of Tomorrow is one of Superman\u2019s many nicknames. However, there have also been a handful of DC comic runs that have incorporated the \u2018Man of Tomorrow\u2019 name into their official title. There was also a 2020 animated movie titled\u00a0Superman: Man of Tomorrow<\/a>, but whether or not the DCU movie will be pulling from any of this source material remains unclear at this time.<\/p>\n

Superman is now available to rent or purchase on digital outlets such as Apple TV, Fandango at Home, and more.<\/p>\n

The synopsis for the movie reads, \u201cSuperman,\u00a0DC Studios<\/a>\u2019 first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from\u00a0Warner Bros. Pictures<\/a>. In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor, and heart, delivering a Superman who\u2019s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s no secret that Superman\u2019s David Corenswet is a big guy.
