For now, Gunn is keeping the details under wraps. He has not announced the title, storyline or cast of the project, nor has he confirmed whether it will be another DC movie. The update comes as Gunn continues overseeing the wider DC Studios slate alongside Peter Safran. Gunn has been closely involved in shaping the studio's new DC Universe since taking over its creative leadership.
James Gunn's upcoming project Superman: Man of Tomorrow
Gunn's immediate major project remains Superman: Man of Tomorrow, the follow-up to his 2025 film Superman. Principal photography wrapped in August, and Gunn has now confirmed that the film's assembly cut is complete.
David Corenswet will be returning as Superman, with Nicholas Hoult reprising his role as Lex Luthor. The sequel will bring the two characters together against a larger threat, with Lars Eidinger playing Brainiac. Rachel Brosnahan, Milly Alcock, Aaron Pierre and other cast members are also part of the film. Written and directed by James Gunn, it will be the fourth film in the DC Universe (DCU) and a follow-up to Superman (2025).
Man of Tomorrow is scheduled to be released by Warner Bros. Pictures on July 9, 2027. It will be part of the DCU's Chapter One: Gods and Monsters.
