The DC Universe has fans excited with the announcement that Superman: Legacy will film at Trilith Studios in Fayetteville, Georgia.

Production will begin in March of 2024, and it’s clear that the team is committed to delivering a high-quality production. James Gunn’s reputation as a writer and director, particularly with his work on projects like Guardians of the Galaxy, adds a level of anticipation for what he’ll bring to the Superman franchise while Corenswet is eager to bring a fresh take on the superhero.

“It came to my attention before the internet got a hold of me,” said Corenswet back in 2019. “But my pie-in-the-sky ambition is definitely to play Superman. I would love to see somebody do an upbeat, throwback (take on Superman). I love the Henry Cavill dark and gritty take, but I would love to see the next one be very bright and optimistic.”  

The casting choices of Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and María Gabriela de Faría as the antagonist Angela Spice, a.k.a. The Engineer, contribute to the anticipation surrounding the film. With a premiere expected in the Summer of 2025, fans have a bit of a wait ahead, but the promise of a new take on Superman, and the involvement of a talented cast and crew make Superman: Legacy a project to look forward to in the DC Universe.
