It looks like the announcement from James Gunn, co-CEO and creative head of DCU, came swiftly, as he’s already unveiled the Superman sequel. The DCU’s Man of Tomorrow is set to hit theaters on July 9, 2027. In this upcoming movie, the Man of Steel will confront his arch-nemesis once more, but with a twist-Lex Luthor enters the fray fully prepared. Interestingly enough, the new DCU art for the Superman sequel (as shown below) seems to depict them in a less hostile manner.
Man of Tomorrow. In theatres July 9, 2027

Gunn shared on social platforms that he’s diving straight into creating a follow-up for his popular superhero movie, scheduled to release in the summer of 2027 – only two years after the first one debuted. The upcoming Superman film, titled “Man of Tomorrow,” derives its name from one of Clark Kent’s numerous aliases.
In our previous discussion, the writer-director-studio head, along with Jim Lee, DC Comics’ Chief Creative Officer, unveiled a fresh sketch. This illustration appears to hint at a significant element in the upcoming film, “Man of Tomorrow.” The image depicts a relaxed Superman casually leaning against his archenemy, Lex Luthor, who is adorned with his Power Suit. Historically, this suit allowed Luthor to combat Superman during the early ’80s. Although it has made sporadic appearances since then, its usage diminished after the Crisis when DC Comics reimagined Luthor as a billionaire CEO instead of a Superman-hating scientist. For those who are familiar with the 1980s Super Powers toy line, they will remember this suit from that era. Soon, newer fans can anticipate seeing this Power Suit in a new collection of toys as the DCU sequel approaches its theater release.
In the upcoming film Man of Tomorrow, it seems Superman may outsmart mecha Lex Luthor by employing an unlikely weapon: a screwdriver. This playful illustration suggests that, despite Lex Luthor’s genius, no one can conquer the might of a common tool, especially when wielded by a powerful Kryptonian. David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult appear prepared for this battle, as they’ve shared images hinting at intense hand-to-hand combat between their characters.
It seems unlikely that Clark Kent will breeze through defeating his arch-nemesis, as it might be a tad more challenging than anticipated. We’ll soon discover just how much more difficult it gets. Fittingly, James Gunn is working at breakneck speed to release the next Superman movie. We’re eagerly anticipating the return of our beloved characters and adversaries when Man of Tomorrow hits theaters on July 9, 2027.
