Overview

• The film draws creative influence from 2023’s Godzilla Minus One to blend kaiju spectacle with intimate human drama
• Early test screenings led to the removal of a “days of the week” structure, trimming of comedic beats and a reshuffling of scenes to tighten the narrative
• David Corenswet stars as Clark Kent/Superman alongside Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor with Milly Alcock debuting as Supergirl
• Production cut roughly 25 minutes of footage, added new scenes during reshoots and brought on a second composer to refine pacing and the soundscape
• As the first installment in DC Studios’ Chapter One: Gods and Monsters, the film opens in US theaters on July 11, 2025
