Superman: Legacy director James Gunn has given fans a peek at the film’s suit and revealed that the DC Studios movie has a new title.
On Threads, the filmmaker announced that the title for Superman: Legacy has been changed simply to Superman. In another post, he noted that filming has begun on the DC Universe film and showed off a picture of the new Superman suit — specifically, the “S” symbol with snow on it.
“When I finished the first draft of the script, I called the film Superman: Legacy,” Gunn’s post reads. “By the time I locked the final draft, it was clear the title was SUPERMAN. Making our way to you July 2025. Happy Birthday, Clark! UpUpAndAway”
You can see the picture of the suit below:
“Superman tells the story of Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas,” reads the movie’s official synopsis. “He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.”
