Skin inspired by James Gunn's Superman film
Popular Fortnite leakers @ShiinaBR and @FNBRintel revealed on May 3 that Epic Games is planning to release a new Superman skin inspired directly by the upcoming DCU film. Unlike the 2021 version, which featured classic and black suit variants, this new skin will reflect Clark Kent's updated costume from the James Gunn-directed movie - complete with modern textures and fresh design elements.
The skin is expected to arrive just before or alongside the film's release on July 11, 2025, potentially between July 6 and July 10, aligning with Fortnite's past movie crossover timelines.
Mythic Superman ability leaked
Beyond the cosmetics, the real game-changer could be the new Superman Mythic Ability, rumored to temporarily transform players into the superhero himself. Details are still under wraps, but speculation suggests the ability may unlock powers such as flight, superhuman strength, or even heat vision.
If true, this could dramatically impact gameplay - especially in casual modes. While Epic may restrict it in competitive tournaments, the power-packed Mythic could become a fan-favorite in standard Battle Royale lobbies.
Will more DC heroes join the roster?
The new Superman movie introduces several other iconic DC heroes including Guy Gardner, Hawkgirl, and Mr. Terrific - all making their first appearance in the rebooted cinematic universe. As of now, no skins for these characters have been confirmed, but Fortnite has a history of expanding collaborations over time.
If the movie performs well, Epic may bring these characters into the game through future bundles or limited-time events.

The timing of this collaboration highlights a strategic push by Warner Bros. Discovery to expand DC's footprint in live-service games. Following the end of support for MultiVersus, Fortnite appears to be a key platform for new DC content rollouts.
For Fortnite, it's a smart play - the Superman skin is likely to attract both superhero fans and long-time players, driving up user engagement and shop sales.
As fans await official confirmation, one thing's clear - Superman's return to Fortnite could be one of the most powerful crossovers yet.

Is Fantastic Four a hit or flop? The film is tracking to be a hit, especially with strong global interest and positive early reviews. 2. Who is Zac Efron playing in Fantastic Four?

Box Office: Fantastic Four takes a mediocre start in India, Opens below Superman & Jurassic World Rebirth
The Fantastic Four: First Steps has finally been released in cinemas today. The Marvel Studios movie has taken a mediocre start at the box office in India and got heavily dented by the blockbuster performance of bollywood romantic film, Saiyaara. Fantastic Four debuts with Rs 5.25 crore, opens below Superman and Jurassic World Rebirth Starring Pedro Pascal, Vanessa Kirby, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, and Joseph Quinn, The Fantastic Four: First Steps couldn't make it big in India on its opening day. The superhero action movie opened with Rs 5.25 crore net, which is not an expected start for such a well-budgeted MCU film. The Hollywood movie managed to flirt with Brad Pitt 's sports-drama F1 opening day but remained below James Gunn's Superman and Scarlett Johansson's Jurassic World: Rebirth. For the record, Superman had taken a decent start of Rs 6.75 crore in India while the Dinosaur movie stormed over Rs 8.25 crore net on its opening day. Did Saiyaara affect Fantastic Four's Day 1 box office? The superhero movie faced the wrath of Mohit Suri's sensational blockbuster film, Saiyaara, which is not stopping anytime soon. The Ahaan Panday and Aneet Padda starrer clocked over Rs 18 crore net today on 2nd Friday. The difference between the box office numbers clearly shows how the audience is inclined more towards the holdover release than the new Hollywood movie. One must note that Saiyaara has also got more showcasing and screen count in Week 2 than its opening week, which eventually affected Fantastic Four's business. All eyes are now on the weekend growth of the Pedro Pascal movie. If the superhero flick manages to hold well and clocks a decent figure, it might help it in sustaining at the box office for a couple of weeks. Stay tuned to Pinkvilla for more updates. Disclaimer: The box office figures are compiled from various sources and our research. The figures can be approximate, and Pinkvilla does not make any claims about the authenticity of the data. However, they are adequately indicative of the box-office performance of the films in question.
