By Express News Service

James Gunn took to Twitter to formally announce that he will probably be directing Superman: Legacy which can launch on July 11, 2025.

Yes, I’m directing Superman: Legacy to be launched on July 11, 2025. My brother Matt instructed me when he noticed the discharge date he began to cry. I requested him why. He mentioned, “Dude, it’s Dad’s birthday.” I hadn’t realized. pic.twitter.com/ohQNV8nI4g

James may also be penning the script of the upcoming characteristic, which he started earlier than he assumed the place of co-head on the DC Studios in November.

“It focuses on Superman balancing his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way. He is kindness in a world that thinks that kindness is old-fashioned,” Peter Safran, co-head of DC Studios, had mentioned earlier, as per The Hollywood Reporter.

In an extended thread on Twitter, James shared how he didn’t realise that the movie’s launch date will coincide along with his father’s birthday, who he misplaced three years in the past. “It has been a long road to this point. I was offered Superman years ago – I initially said no because I didn’t have a way in that felt unique and fun and emotional that gave Superman the dignity he deserved,” he wrote.

He continued that nonetheless rather less than a yr in the past, he may see “a way in” which might centre on Superman’s heritage and eventually selected to jot down the script. While he was initially hesitant to direct, Peter had coerced him into doing it.

“Just because I write something doesn’t mean I feel it in my bones, visually and emotionally, enough to spend over two years directing it, especially not something of this magnitude. But, the long and the short of it is, I love this script, and I’m incredibly excited as we begin this journey,” James wrote.

However, it’s to be famous that Superman won’t be performed by Henry Cavill who portrayed the character in Man of Steel, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice and Justice League.
