\n\t\t\t\t\tThe next installment to the \u2018Superman\u2019 saga starring David Corenswet hits theaters in July 2027\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

MANILA, Philippines \u2014\u00a0 There\u2019s more in store for Superman fans!<\/p>\n

James Gunn, who directed the latest Superman blockbuster starring David Corenswet, took to Instagram on Thursday, September 4, to announce the title and release date of the follow-up to the iconic superhero movie.<\/p>\n

\u201cMan of Tomorrow. In theaters July 9, 2027,\u201d Gunn captioned the post that features DC Comics chief creative officer Jim Lee\u2019s drawing of Lex Luthor suited in his green and purple Warsuit from the original comics, and Superman standing next to him holding a screwdriver.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

But Gunn, who\u2019s also the co-chairman and co-CEO of DC Universe (DCU) Studios, clarified that it\u2019s \u201cnot Superman 2.\u201d<\/p>\n

In replying to fans\u2019 questions, Gunn said Man of Tomorrow is the next installment to the Superman saga where \u201cSuperman has a major role.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The announcement isn\u2019t new to comic book fans, as this was teased as early as August when Gunn made an appearance in the Season 2 premiere of Peacemaker<\/a>, the HBO Max series revolving around the titular character played by John Cena.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve already finished the treatment for the next story in what I\u2019ll call the \u2018Superman saga.\u2019 The treatment is done, which means a very, very worked-out treatment. I\u2019m working on that and hopefully going into production on that not too far away from today,\u201d Gunn shared in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s not the first time that Gunn used his social media account to reveal upcoming DCU releases. In July, he posted a teaser for the upcoming Supergirl <\/a>standalone movie to be released in 2026.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Gunn previously directed and wrote the hit Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU) Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy starring an ensemble cast of Chris Pratt, Zoe Salda\u00f1a, Dave Bautista, Bradley Cooper, and Vin Diesel.<\/p>\n

In July 2018, the director faced backlash regarding offensive tweets<\/a> posted between 2008 and 2011. Because of this, he was temporarily removed as director for the third movie, but was rehired in March 2019 to direct Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 once he wrapped production on The Suicide Squad in 2021.<\/p>\n

He directed Superman starring Corenswet as the protagonist Clark Kent\/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as journalist Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as antagonist Lex Luthor.\u00a0<\/p>\n

According to Box Office Mojo, the 2025 film grossed $600 million worldwide<\/a> with a domestic opening of $125 million in box office.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The movie kick started its\u00a0 global promotional tour in the Philippines<\/a> last July, with Corenswet himself leading the cast and producers in the event at the SM Mall of Asia Music Hall. \u2013 Chloe Gonzalez\/Rappler.com<\/strong><\/p>\n
