Sun Jan 12 05:40:00 UTC 2025: ## New Image of David Corenswet as Superman Revealed Ahead of July Release

**Los Angeles, CA** – A new still image from James Gunn’s highly anticipated *Superman* reboot has been released, offering a closer look at David Corenswet as the Man of Steel. The image, featured in USA Today’s preview of 2025’s biggest films, shows Corenswet in his new costume, patrolling the streets of Metropolis.

The film, set for release on July 11th, is generating significant buzz, with its December trailer already surpassing 250 million views in 24 hours – triple the viewership of *Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom*’s trailer in the same timeframe. This reboot, serving as the launchpad for Gunn and Peter Safran’s new DC Universe, will not be an origin story but will focus on Clark Kent reconciling his Kryptonian heritage with his Earthly identity.

The movie promises a blend of action, humor, and heart, drawing inspiration from various Superman iterations, including comics, *Superman: The Animated Series*, and *Superman: For All Ages*. Alongside Corenswet, the film stars Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and features Krypto the Superdog. Other DC characters, including Hawkgirl and Guy Gardner, will also appear, setting the stage for future DCU installments. The film’s ensemble cast further includes María Gabriela de Faría as The Engineer Angela Spica.

While *Superman* will introduce key players for the new DCU, future projects like *Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow* (June 26, 2026) and the eventual return of Batman are also planned. The director has confirmed a significant on-screen role for Batman, though specifics remain under wraps due to the delay of *The Batman: Part II* to 2027. The new DCU is intentionally delaying the reintroduction of The Flash.
