Superman stories have always referenced and challenged real-life geopolitics since the character's inception.
With strong word-of-mouth and positive reviews behind it, “Superman” is inching toward the billion-dollar benchmark. It’s a promising sign for Warner Bros. and DC Studios, which have a lot riding on this film as the foundation of their ambitious 10-year plan to reboot the franchise after the collapse of the DC Extended Universe.
Following the commercial success of “Superman”, director James Gunn has now shifted the spotlight to the DC Universe’s next major instalment—”Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow”. Slated for release on June 26, 2026, the film will see Milly Alcock take on the role of Kara Zor-El, with Craig Gillespie directing.
There’s a certain weight that comes with reviewing a “Superman” movie. For decades, the “Man of Steel” has stood as a pop culture monolith—a symbol of hope, morality, and larger-than-life heroics. I went in to enjoy James Gunn’s ambitious reboot, weighing whether this iteration of the Kryptonian saviour could soar above the fatigue of a superhero-saturated landscape. I came out with the realisation that Superman may not be flawless, but it flies high enough to remind us why this hero matters.
Superman conveys a message about kindness, hope, and how our choices represent who we are.
A double treat awaits Bangladeshi moviegoers this weekend, as two of the most anticipated international films of the year — James Gunn’s “Superman” and the Jackie Chan-starrer “Karate Kid: Legends” — are set to hit the big screen at Star Cineplex on July 11, the same day as their global release.
James Gunn, the director and co-head of DC Studios, has described his upcoming film “Superman” as a reflection of the American immigrant experience, infused with themes of morality and basic human decency. In a recent interview with The Sunday Times, Gunn noted that the story is particularly relevant in the current political climate in the United States.
The upcoming “Superman’s” Rachel Brosnahan had already recognised David Corenswet as the ideal Man of Steel long before he was officially cast in the role. During an interview on the Producers Guild Awards red carpet, Brosnahan, who portrays the fearless reporter and Superman's love interest, Lois Lane, shared her excitement about starring in James Gunn’s “Superman”. She also discussed the experience of watching her co-star, Corenswet, step into the iconic super-suit for the first time.
Departing from earlier adaptations, this TV show presents Clark Kent (Tyler Hoechlin) well into his career as Superman.
