James Gunn<\/a> is teasing Superman 2<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Superman<\/a> is now playing in United States theaters. Written and directed by Gunn, the DC Studios<\/a> and Warner Bros. Pictures<\/a> movie stars David Corenswet as the titular superhero, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.<\/p>\n

Gunn has previously indicated that there will be a sequel to Superman; however, he\u2019s also stated that the follow-up will be \u201ca little different than what one might expect.\u201d There have been no further details regarding what this might mean; however, Gunn has said that it won\u2019t be another Batman vs. Superman and it won\u2019t be a World\u2019s Finest film featuring Batman.<\/p>\n

What did James Gunn say about Superman 2?<\/p>\n

On Threads, Gunn was asked by a fan if he now had time to relax, given that Superman is out and the press tour for the DCU<\/a> movie is over.<\/p>\n

Gunn responded<\/a>, \u201cPeacemaker press!! And sequel writing!!!\u201d<\/p>\n

When asked by another fan when he was going to tease the sequel for Superman, Gunn said<\/a>, \u201cI JUST DID!\u201d<\/p>\n

There\u2019s been no official word about when Superman 2 might be happening or how it will play into the rest of the DCU. The film does not have a release date at this time.<\/p>\n

Prior to teasing Superman 2, Gunn wrote a post<\/a> discussing how to deal with online toxicity that certain fandoms espouse. It reads, \u201cIf you see something toxic online, my advice would be, don\u2019t interact with it. Attention only fans the flames of online toxicity. It\u2019s one of the reasons I\u2019m primarily on this platform. It isn\u2019t because there are fewer toxic people here (although there seemingly are), it\u2019s because it started as an online culture more willing to let the toxic personality in the back of the room shout himself hoarse and go away. When you shout back, you\u2019re making that voice relevant.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re giving it a sounding board. You are the midwife helping to birth that toxic voice into the world. You\u2019re helping to make a few thousand angry voices seem like millions. And, to be clear, when I\u2019m talking about toxicity, I\u2019m talking primarily about rage or cruelty. I\u2019m not talking about not liking something or having reasonable arguments about things we like and don\u2019t. Anyway, forgive the PSA, but it\u2019s on my mind.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"James Gunn is teasing Superman 2. Superman is now playing in United States theaters.
