Superman Launches New DC Universe With Ultraman, Lex Luthor

News summary

James Gunn's new Superman film marks the beginning of a refreshed DC Universe (DCU), introducing classic characters like Batman, Supergirl, and Wonder Woman while exploring new story dynamics. The movie features Ultraman, a genetically engineered clone created by Lex Luthor as a powerful adversary lacking Superman's humanity, who serves as a central antagonist and may foreshadow future DCU developments. Gunn emphasizes Superman's empathy, highlighting scenes such as him caring for Supergirl's troublesome dog to showcase the character's depth beyond his heroics. The film has been successful at the box office and sets the stage for further DCU stories, including the Justice Gang and the Hall of Justice. Gunn also revealed creative choices behind casting and character design, such as the nuanced portrayal of Ultraman by David Corenswet and plans for other villains like Gorilla Grodd. Overall, the film balances fresh narrative elements with homage to Superman's iconic legacy, aiming to expand the shared universe with interconnected plots and character development.
