‘Superman' Trailer: Rachel Brosnahan and Nicholas Hoult Fight for David Corenswet's Attention in DC Reboot from James Gunn
Gunn, who is the co-CEO of DC Studios with Peter Safran, wrote the feature which is decidedly not an origin story about Clark Kent embracing his alienhood to save the world. There will be plenty of world saving, but he is already well known to his colleague and love interest Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) and nemesis Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult).

'We just start in the middle of the action,' Gunn previously told TheWrap. 'Superman already exists. Lois and Clark already know each other. Lex hates Superman's guts from the beginning, although they don't know each other personally. So we start right in the middle of the action.'
'Superman' is among the latest DC installments, which also includes the return of the 'Peacemaker' series for Max.
Warner Bros. Pictures will release 'Superman' in theaters on July 11. Check out the trailer below.

James Gunn Does Interview In Casket For ‘Grave Conversations' Season 3
LONDON, ENGLAND - JULY 02: James Gunn attends the "Superman" Fan Event at Cineworld Leicester Square ... More on July 02, 2025 in London, England. (Photo by Samir Hussein/WireImage) Superman filmmaker James Gunn lies in a casket for an interview with his friend and colleague David Dastmalchian for Season 3 of Dastmalchian's talk show Grave Conversations. Gunn, of course, is the co-CEO of Warner Bros.' DC Studios with Peter Safran. DC Studios is about to kick off a new era of the DC Universe with Superman, written and directed by Gunn, on Friday, July 11. Dastmalchian — whose long list of credits includes The Dark Knight, the Ant-Man trilogy, Oppenheimer, Late Night with the Devil and most recently, Murderbot and The Life of Chuck — began hosting Grave Conversations on Instagram and YouTube in April 2024. Dastmalchian also played Polka-Dot Man in Gunn's DC antihero movie The Suicide Squad in 2021. Grave Conversations was developed by Elan Gale and produced by Dastmalchian's Good Fiend Films. Gale and Dastmalchian partnered with Titan Casket and its founder and CEO Scott Ginsberg to bring the unique talk show to life. In a press release to announce the show in 2024, Dastmalchian said, 'The opportunity to interview my friends and colleagues presented itself with Grave Conversations, a hilarious, heartfelt, and personal exploration of some of the things that matter most in life. And death.' Gunn is among the 10 new guests that Dastmalchian is interviewing for Grave Conversations Season 3. Gunn's episode will premiere on Monday, July 7, on YouTube, just days before Superman's release on July 11. 'I'm a huge fan of Grave Conversations,' Gunn said in the trailer for the show's third season, which was released on Wednesday. 'I'm what you call 'a superfan.'' Who Else Will David Dastmalchian Interview In 'Grave Conversations' Season 3? In addition to James Gunn, Grave Conversations will feature David Dastmalchian's interviews with She-Hulk and Star Trek: Prodigy star Jameela Jamil, Superman and The Rookie star Nathan Fillion and comic book creator and toy company owner Todd McFarlane. 'I'm going to be on Grave Conversations. It's important. Standing up interviews and sitting interviews? This is how it's done," McFarlane said of the talk show's unique format in the Season 3 trailer. "There's going to be a new wave. It's cool.' In addition, Dastmalchian will be interviewing Shadowhunters and Arrow star Katherine McNamara, actor-director Mark Duplass, actor-director Kevin Smith, The Suicide Squad star Flua Borg, Traitors star Chrishell Stause and M3GAN and M3GAN 2.0 star Violet McGraw. In Seasons 1 and 2 of Grave Conversations, Dastmlachian did interviews with the likes of The Haunting of Hill House and Midnight Mass creator Mike Flanagan and star Kate Siegel, Scream and Five Nights at Freddy's star Matthew Lillard, The Boys star Jack Quaid and Final Destination star Devon Sawa. Grave Conversations Season 3 premieres on YouTube on Monday. James Gunn's Superman, starring David Corenswet as the new Clark Kent/Superman, opens in theaters nationwide on July 11.

SUPERMAN's Justice Gang: Cast Explains Why These Offbeat Heroes Actually Joined the Team — GeekTyrant
With James Gunn's Superman gearing up to launch the new DC Universe in 2025, fans have been eager to learn more about the unexpected group of superheroes joining the Man of Steel on his cinematic return. Enter the Justice Gang, a scrappy mix of metahumans made up of Green Lantern (Guy Gardner), Mister Terrific, Hawkgirl, and Metamorpho. In a recent interview with Collider, the actors behind these characters include Nathan Fillion, Edi Gathegi, Isabela Merced, and Anthony Carrigan, and they talked about why their characters actually signed up for this new team, and it's not for truth, justice, or any noble cause. Fillion's Guy Gardner isn't here to save the world. He just wants a bar. Fillion said: 'Corporate sponsorship. I think Guy Gardner has financial aspirations. He wants to open his own bar.' Of course, he does. Gunn's take on Gardner is shaping up to be less about the galaxy-saving and more about the side hustle. Gathegi's Mister Terrific? Turns out he's Just bored. The actor said: 'He's bored. It's something for me to do while I do other things.' The deadpan delivery seems to fit Mister Terrific's hyper-intelligent, too-smart-for-this-world persona. Saving the day is just a hobby. Merced's Hawkgirl just needed an outlet, and some legal protection. Merced explained: 'She needed a legal reason to let out her rage. A legal way to kick some ass.' Sometimes you don't join a superhero team for the camaraderie. Sometimes, it's just court-approved anger management. Carrigan's Metamorpho? Still waiting for the paperwork. 'I'm still waiting for the contract to show up.' Maybe he just wandered into the group and hasn't left. Despite the wild motivations, Merced hinted that there's a real bond beneath the banter: 'There's deep respect in the group, and that's why they're so funny together.' Gunn's Superman hits theaters July 11, 2025.

Here Are 45 Male Celebrities Who Bleached Their Hair And Surprisingly Pulled It Off
Recently, Superman star Nicholas Hoult has had the internet talking (and thirsting) after he successfully went blonde. NGL, this dropkicked me down a rabbit hole, wondering what other celebrities looked like with bleached hair. So, when redditor r/Classic-Carpet7609 suggested that every dark-haired famous man should try peroxide on this thread, I had to share the findings. Keep in mind, while Orlando Bloom as Legolas was everyone's brunette-to-blonde awakening, I'm only including natural hairdos going double platinum and not store-bought bussdowns. "As someone who's attracted to dark-haired men, Legolas had me in a fucking CHOKEHOLD." —u/ThatsMrsKrasinski2U Below are dark-haired celebrity men who bleached their hair, both from the Reddit thread and also my own brain: ANGELA WEISS / AFP via Getty Images, Raymond Hall / GC Images Efron "Blonde Zac Efron looks like he's about to take his sixth expedition to the continent of Africa."—u/AstroBearGaming Horan "Please don't forget about my OG bleached guy 😔 Looking back though his hair was FRIED around 2014/2015." —u/roheni Rogan "Seth Rogen in Platonic changed me. I'm generally into guys with dark hair (my husband has nearly black hair) but this, this made me question my whole life 🤤🤤🫣🫣" —u/notyounotmenoone Related: Blyth "I'm not proud to admit this in any way, but Tom Blyth had absolutely no right to look as good as he did with that young Coriolanus Snow blonde wig/bleached buzz cut. I don't know how or why it suited him so well, but damn." —u/getmeacampari "Peroxide Tom Blyth changed my whole perception of blonde men... and blue-eyed men for that matter." u/peaches_peachs Dempsey Williams "Blonde Robbie Williams was everything." —u/SergenteDan Malik "Zayn Malik's face card clears." —u/fatbacc Peters "i mean 😍😍😍" —u/crutonacrutona Gosling Yang "My king Bowen Yang." —u/manycats4u Teller Davidson —u/SomeFirstTimeHigh Jackson —u/Miele-Man Related: Messi Starr —u/angelyka3 Beckham Beckham Jr. Schulman —u/No_Place2613 Pitt Taylor-Johnson "Aaron Taylor-Johnson looked great blonde as Count Vronsky! He's also just really handsome." —u/borkborkymous Lochte Related: Messina "Blonde Chris Messina was so great." —u/AshlingIsWriting Marsters Timberlake Clooney Slater Blue Smith Smith Levine Puth Bailey 32.G-Eazy Disick Related: Howerton Bloom Bieber Haynes "Okay this was the first one I remember. I was born in '95, and in elementary school, all the boys went through a peroxide blonde faze because of Eminem." —u/envydub Jonas Hill Zakhar Perez "Taylor Zakhar Perez is hot blonde or dark haired." —u/jael001 Ahmed "Riz Ahmed is hot no matter what, but when he's bleach blonde it's so hot." —u/b_needs_a_cookie Stan finally, Nicholas again because he got that sh*t on. Did we forget anybody for anybody? Let me know in the comments, and I'll add them to the list and give you props, of course. Also in Celebrity: Also in Celebrity: Also in Celebrity:
