Schwarzenegger opens up about Superman audition
Patrick Schwarzenegger recently spoke about his failed audition for James Gunn's Superman movie on the Happy Sad Confused podcast. When asked about the audition and whether he got to try on the costume, he said, “No, I don’t think I got any feedback,” adding, “I think it was like, ‘No, not for you.’”
Superman set for 2025 release
Meanwhile, James Gunn's Superman is gearing up for its highly anticipated release. The film stars David Corenswet as Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. It will serve as the first entry in the newly-formed DC Cinematic Universe.
Unlike previous adaptations, Superman will not be an origin story. Instead, it will focus on Clark Kent’s first year as a superhero in Metropolis. The film will also introduce other DC heroes, including Green Lantern, Hawkgirl, Metamorpho, and Mister Terrific, laying the groundwork for future DCU projects.
Superman is set to hit cinemas worldwide on 11 July 2025.
