Gunn said that the next film he\u2019s writing isn\u2019t a strict Superman sequel, but that Superman is \u201cvery important\u201d to it, and also said fans wouldn\u2019t have to worry about it being another \u201cBatman vs. Superman\u201d film. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuperman is very important,\u201d Gunn said. \u201cAnd it\u2019s not Batman versus Superman.\u201d When asked if the movie would be a World\u2019s Finest film featuring Batman, Gunn also shook his head, signaling that wouldn\u2019t be the case. <\/p>\n<p>Gunn was also confirmed that this mysterious film will be the next movie he makes, and that fans will hear about it \u201csooner rather than later,\u201d but wouldn\u2019t give an exact update on when that might be. <\/p>\n<p>As of now, it remains unclear if the next film Gunn does will end up being all about Superman. It seems that the film won\u2019t be a direct follow-up to 2025\u2019s Superman, but Gunn does know exactly how important David Corenswet\u2019s Superman is to the DCU as a whole. <\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"James Gunn has recently opened up about what fans can expect from a Superman 2, and whether or&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":273334,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3935],"tags":[32017,46972,53961,77,19919,16280,3943,4169,103493,16,15,1082,47689],"class_list":{"0":"post-273333","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-dc","9":"tag-dc-studios","10":"tag-dc-universe","11":"tag-entertainment","12":"tag-james-gunn","13":"tag-movie-news","14":"tag-movies","15":"tag-superman","16":"tag-superman-2","17":"tag-uk","18":"tag-united-kingdom","19":"tag-warner-bros","20":"tag-warner-bros-discovery"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/114876973316788589","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273333","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=273333"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273333\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/273334"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=273333"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=273333"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=273333"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
