It\u2019s been a good one, with over $330 million in the U.S. so far and another $250 million worldwide. It\u2019s the highest-grossing Superman film ever, <a href=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/james-gunns-superman-just-passed-a-major-man-of-steel-milestone-2000637244\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">domestically not adjusted for inflation<\/a>, and now the journey takes its next step.<\/p>\n<p>Gunn <a href=\"https:\/\/www.threads.com\/@jamesgunn\/post\/DNQlSJ1ggZa\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">took to social media<\/a> Tuesday to announce his DC Universe film will be available on digital August 15. That\u2019s this week. It\u2019s also just about a month after the film hit theaters, which is both incredibly quick but also becoming more and more standard. The film, which is available for pre-order now, will cost $30 wherever you choose to download your movies legally. It will then be available as 4K and Blu-ray September 23. Here\u2019s the official list of special features as per a Warner Bros. press release:<\/p>\n<ul type=\"disc\">\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">Krypto Saves the Day!: School Bus Scuffle \u2013 (5:32)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">Adventures in Making Superman Featurette \u2013 (60:00)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">Icons Forever: Superman\u2019s Enduring Legacy \u2013 Featurette (6:05)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">Lex Luthor: The Mind of a Master Villain \u2013 Featurette (5:18)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">Kryptunes: The Music of Superman \u2013 Featurette (6:31)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">Paws to Pixels: Krypto is Born \u2013 Featurette (5:54)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">Breaking News: The Daily Planet Returns \u2013 Featurette (5:23)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">The Ultimate Villain \u2013 Featurette (5:30)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">The Justice Gang \u2013 Featurette (10:37)<\/li>\n<li class=\"m_-1424896071847025616paragraph\">A New Era: DC Takes Off \u2013 Featurette (4:53)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The release also mentions that \u201ccoming soon\u201d to the digital release will be a director\u2019s commentary, gag reel, and deleted scenes. No word on when those are coming or why they won\u2019t be available upon initial release. They will be added automatically at a later date though.<\/p>\n<p>As fans start to break down the film frame by frame, TikTok by TikTok, as often happens upon digital release, <a href=\"https:\/\/gizmodo.com\/james-gunn-dc-superman-sequel-super-family-2000640140\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Gunn is already onto the next thing<\/a>. He\u2019s writing a follow-up to Superman that\u2019s not exactly \u201cSuperman 2,\u201d but prominently features the character. His boss, the head of Warner Bros. Discovery, David Zaslav, described it as \u201cthe next installment in the Super-Family,\u201d which either means Superman will team up with Supergirl, or it\u2019s some other general collection of superheroes.<\/p>\n<p>Whatever the case, the film is a ways off. Next up for Gunn\u2019s DC Universe is Peacemaker Season 2, which Gunn partially directed and wrote, and ties directly into Superman. Things then cool off for a few months leading into Supergirl, which is out summer 2026, followed by Clayface in October 2026. Also, the Lanterns TV show will be in there at some point too. Likely early next year.<\/p>\n<p>Are you going to drop the $30 to have Superman in your home? What are you most excited about rewatching?
