**LOS ANGELES –** The highly anticipated teaser trailer for James Gunn’s upcoming “Superman” reboot has smashed viewing records, achieving a staggering 250 million views within its first day of release. This surpasses previous DC and Warner Bros. records, making it the most viewed and discussed trailer in the studio’s history, according to Gunn himself.

The filmmaker took to social media to express his gratitude for the overwhelming response, highlighting the trailer’s impact across social media platforms with over a million posts. The numbers dwarfed other major releases this year, including the trailers for “Joker: Folie à Deux” (167 million views) and “Inside Out 2” (157 million views). While still trailing Marvel’s record-holding “Deadpool and Wolverine” trailer (365 million views), the “Superman” teaser’s performance is a significant achievement.

The trailer offered the first glimpse of David Corenswet as the new Man of Steel, alongside other key characters including Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor, and several heroes integral to Gunn’s vision for the DC Universe. This includes Krypto the Superdog, Hawkgirl, Green Lantern Guy Gardner, Mister Terrific, and Metamorpho. The romance between Superman and Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) was also teased.

Gunn described his approach to the Superman mythos as embracing its full scope, incorporating both allies and adversaries from the comics in a grounded and realistic manner. “Superman” is set to hit theaters on July 11th, distributed by Warner Bros. The impressive trailer viewership suggests a strong potential for box office success.
