  • A now-removed SnyderCut subreddit post urged members to spoil the film, leave negative reviews and reserve tickets without attending.
  • Moderators locked the post, clarifying it was unapproved and did not represent the subreddit’s stance.
  • Superman, starring David Corenswet, is set to debut in theaters on July 11, 2025, marking the launch of the DC Universe reboot.
  • Zack Snyder has publicly supported Gunn’s vision for the new DC Universe and remains on friendly terms with the filmmaker.
