With James Gunn ’s Superman now in theaters, a new debate has ignited across the DC fandom. As fans debate over which version of Superman is better David Corenswet or Henry Cavill , other fans are debated which movie is better.

Superman gave Clark Kent back his heart, but did James Gunn give our staffers back their hope for his comic world?

An A-lister makes an appearance in the new "Superman" movie, in reference to the hero's origin story.

Everything we know about the future of the DC Universe, from cast and crew to release dates, plus all of the DC Elseworlds projects.

"Superman" is well-liked and should play for weeks in the U.S., but DC's path back to tentpole powerhouse status will take time.

James Gunn's tentpole appears to be succeeding in rebooting the Warner Bros.-owned DC and its most prized superhero franchise. Elsewhere, 'Jurassic World Rebirth' bites off a huge $500 million globally.

T he immense pressure on the box office performance of James Gunn's Superman has not exactly been a secret. A DC franchise reboot has been in the works now for two years – through the memorable flops of the final four DCEU titles that were released in 2023 – and the latest movie about the last son of Krypton was given the responsibility of getting audiences around the globe excited about what's in the works for DC Studios' nascent DC Universe.

“Superman” begins with a cute title card that explains, “3 hours ago Superman lost his first battle ever,” but frankly, based on what we see in the rest of the movie, I find that hard to believe. This incarnation of Superman doesn’t seem capable of punching his way out of a wet paper bag.
