Darkseid has a malicious plan for the Absolute Universe, and Superman sits right at the center of it as Darkseid's ultimate weapon.

The third and final cameo of the film sees Milly Alcock crash (literally) onto the screen as Kara Zor-El, also known as Superman's cousin, Supergirl. Yes, that's right, Kent isn't the only surviving Kryptonian in the galaxy.

The DC Universe takes flight as James Gunn's film, Superman, delivers a wacky, thoughtful, and uplifting thrill ride.

DC Studios films have struggled to connect with audiences in recent years, prompting the studio to shake up leadership and reboot the DC film franchise.

James Gunn's upcoming superhero movie, Superman (2025), is the first installment of the DC Universe. Lois Lane is played by Rachel Brosnahan, while Clark Kent/Superman is portrayed by David Corenswet.

The new film, starring David Corenswet as Superman, is intended to kick off a new epoch for DC Studios, which has struggled in recent years to produce consistent superhero hits.

Just as "Superman" celebrates its wide theatrical release, a report from the Wall Street Journal details DC Studios' upcoming strategy, including news that DC co-heads James Gunn and Peter Safran are already considering two TV spinoffs of the film.

This means that future DCU movies and series don’t need to only move the story forward. They can also take things back in time. A period story about a metahuman from 100, 200, or 300 years ago is perfectly acceptable. This opens up possibilities for different sorts of stories in a way that the MCU has largely had to rely on the multiverse to tell.
