James Gunn officially announced the title of the next Superman film, and stars from multiple DCU projects have already commented on it, potentially teasing their involvement in the project.
What stars teased possible appearances in Man of Tomorrow?
Following Gunn’s announcement of the next Superman movie, titled Man of Tomorrow, on Instagram, several other DCU stars took to celebrating. While Superman stars David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult celebrated with their own pictures, so did others. Isabela Merced — who played Hawkgirl in Superman — also shared the post, while also commenting “see you soon” along with the message.
Aaron Pierre, who is set to play the Green Lantern John Stewart in the upcoming HBO series Lanterns, also commented on Gunn’s post. This led many to wonder if Pierre will appear in the upcoming movie, which is set to arrive after Lanterns premieres in 2026. Grant Gustin, who played Barry Allen/The Flash on The CW series The Flash, also commented to celebrate the news.
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.
The Man of Tomorrow is one of Superman’s many nicknames; however, there have also been a handful of DC comic runs that have incorporated the ‘Man of Tomorrow’ name into their official title. There was also a 2020 animated movie titled Superman: Man of Tomorrow, but whether or not the DCU movie will be pulling from any of this source material remains unclear at this time.
Superman is now available to rent or purchase on digital outlets such as Apple TV, Fandango at Home, and more.
The synopsis for the movie reads, “Superman, DC Studios’ first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from Warner Bros. Pictures. 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’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.”
