Superman: It's Super, Man!

It's Super... man!

'Like Earth’s yellow sun to Kal-El, James Gunn reinvigorates the DC Universe, injecting it with humour, hope and a refreshing sense of wonder. Gone is the self-seriousness and brooding, in its place, a bright, heartfelt adventure that reminds us why the Man of Steel is the world’s most beloved hero. This one doesn’t just fly, it soars. It’s Super, man!'

The excitement carried over to Oxford Street, where Gunn appeared for a special Q&A session. Speaking to an eager audience, he shared insights into the creative direction of the DC Universe reboot and his philosophy behind Superman’s return to optimism and warmth.

Gunn emphasized the importance of balancing spectacle with soul, noting that what makes Superman compelling isn’t just his powers, but his humanity. The event offered a rare, candid look into the filmmaker’s thought process and drew a crowd of fans excited not just for action, but for a DC Universe that finally feels alive again.

From Letterboxd buzz to in-person enthusiasm, it’s clear: Superman is back and this time, he’s smiling.
