James Gunn’s ‘Superman’ First Look: Clark Kent & Lex Luthor Face Off in Epic New Set Image


0

The DC Universe is gearing up for a fresh start, and James Gunn’s Superman is leading the charge. After a week of explosive reveals during Collider’s Exclusive Preview event, we’re capping things off with a major first look—Clark Kent and Lex Luthor going head-to-head in an all-new behind-the-scenes image. And trust us, this showdown is exactly what fans have been waiting for.

Superman vs. Lex Luthor: The Rivalry Begins

The newly released image gives us a sneak peek at David Corenswet suited up as the Man of Steel, standing opposite Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor—with director James Gunn overseeing the action. The tension is already electric, hinting at the ideological battle that’ll drive the film.

Gunn’s Superman isn’t just another superhero flick—it’s the launchpad for the new DCU, promising a mix of high-flying action and deep character moments. Corenswet’s Clark Kent is set to embody hope and humanity, while Hoult’s Luthor is shaping up to be one of the most dangerous versions of the villain yet.

What We Know About the Film

  • A Fresh Take on Superman: This isn’t your typical origin story. Gunn’s vision focuses on Clark’s compassion and his belief in people, even in the face of evil.

  • Star-Studded Cast: Alongside Corenswet and Hoult, the film features Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, plus Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Anthony Carrigan, and more.

  • More Than Just a Blockbuster: As the first official DCU movie, Superman will set the tone for the franchise’s future—balancing spectacle with heart.

Why This Movie Could Change Superhero Films

With Gunn at the helm (fresh off Guardians of the Galaxy’s success), Superman has the potential to redefine the genre. Early teases suggest a bold, emotional, and action-packed take on the Last Son of Krypton—one that honors the past while forging a new path.

And let’s be real: after years of shaky DC films, this might finally be the reset fans have been begging for.

Mark Your Calendars

Superman hits theaters July 11, 2025 (with international releases starting July 9). If this first look is any indication, we’re in for something truly special.

What do you think of the new image? Is Hoult the perfect Lex? Can Corenswet fill the cape? Sound off in the comments!

For Gag4All: Adjust tone to fit the site’s style—maybe add some humor or memes about past Superman flops vs. Gunn’s potential redemption. Example: “After ‘The Flash’ flopped harder than a Kryptonian without powers, DC’s praying Gunn can save the day. Fingers crossed!”
