James Gun Teases Man of Tomorrow, the next Superman film for 2027

Superman is a hit grossing over $600 million so far with many millions to go before its run is over. The film is such a success it’ll get multiple sequels with the first, Man of Tomorrow, arriving July 9, 2027.

Writer/director/DC Studios co-head James Gunn made the announcement on social media with an image by Jim Lee (with the date of 2025) of Superman and Lex Luthor, but Luthor wearing his Warsuit. Maybe we’ll be seeing David Corenswet fighting Nicholas Hoult in the armored suit? Maybe they’ll have to team up against a greater threat?

What’s interesting is the upcoming Supergirl film was originally titled Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow and now just Supergirl. Gunn has said he’s not a fan of film titles that were “Character Name: (XYZ).”

The next few years will be busy with Supergirl arriving in June 2026 and Clayface currently set for September 2026. There’s also the television series with Peacemaker‘s second season currently airing and Lanterns expected in early 2026. The Batman Part II i also expected to be released October 2027, though it currently isn’t connected to the current DC Studios universe.
