Overview

• DC Studios has scheduled Man of Tomorrow for July 9, 2027 as active script work continues.
• Gunn says writing the new script is "much much much easier" and "so fun" compared to the first film.
• He positions the story as a Lex–Superman team-up against a larger threat, calling it as much a Lex film as a Superman one.
• Gunn intends to explore Lex Luthor’s humanity, saying there is something "incredibly heroic" about him when viewed apart from morality.
• The sequel will be less "comic-booky" than Superman, with Gunn noting Peacemaker Season 2’s Episode 8 is important to its setup; David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult are expected to return.
