Superman will be exclusively released in theaters
The upcoming DC superhero film Superman will be released in theaters exclusively on July 11, 2025, in the United States of America. It is set to be the first film in the rebooted DC universe and falls under Chapter One: Gods and Monsters. According to filmratings.com, the superhero film has been rated PG-13 by the Motion Picture Association of America for violence, action, and language.
The DC superhero film will have a runtime of 2 hours and 2 minutes. The film will be released two days earlier elsewhere internationally on July 9, 2025. The film will be competing with other heavyweights such as Jurassic Park: Rebirth and Fantastic Four: The First Steps at the box office, both of which are set to be released in July.
David Corenswet is the new Superman
The legacy of DC's prominent superhero on the big screen is set to be continued by the American actor David Corenswet. The actor succeeds Henry Cavill, who portrayed the superhero before him in three DC films, namely Man of Steel, Batman v Superman, and Justice League.
James has stated previously that he won't be dwelling on the character's origin arc since it has been shown in many of the past movies. Instead, his film shows Clark Kent enjoying a successful time in his superhero and professional duties, but certain new elements leave him unbalanced. He is "madly" in love with Louis, who is unsure about him, and his superhero friends think he is naive.
James intends to make David Corenswet's Superman a kind superhero and showcase the vulnerabilities that an invincible man like him can also end up facing.
