Summary
- James Gunn’s new Superman film envisions a fresh take on the iconic love story between Superman and Lois Lane.
- DC Universe artwork envisions what this story could look like.
- Gunn’s Superman movie can explore aspects of the duo’s relationship that haven’t been explored onscreen prior.
Gorgeous DC Universe art envisions the love story begin between David Corenswet’s Man of Steel and Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane in the new Superman film. With James Gunn’s DC Universe on its way, several beloved heroes are getting reimagined for the big and small screens. As Corenswet will be the next Superman in the world of cinema, Brosnahan will be the newest Lois as part of DC Studios’ upcoming continuity.
The Superman movie cast is currently busy shooting their remaining material for the DC Universe movie, as principal photography will be concluding in July. While the world has yet to see Corenswet and Brosnahan together as their characters, talented artist Jobhutz shared new Superman artwork as Krypton’s last son takes Lois to the skies.
According to Jobhutz, they looked at J. Totino Tedesco’s previous Superman work featuring Clark and Lois flying for inspiration when they made their DC Universe artwork. To this point, the only times Brosnahan and Corenswet have been seen together during the Superman production was through the actress’ TikTok video in February, Gunn’s cast group photo they shared when filming first began, as well as during Superman Day in April.

10 Biggest Reveals From James Gunn’s Superman Movie First Look Image
Here are all the biggest reveals and teases worth pointing out from James Gunn’s first full look at the DCU’s new Superman and his exciting costume.
How The Superman Movie Can Explore New Territory For Clark Kent & Lois Lane
According to Gunn, the new Superman movie will not be an origin story for Clark Kent, but rather focus on the Man of Tomorrow during his early days as a superhero. However, this could very well be the case for Lois too, as the Superman story may explore the start of her journalistic career. As Gunn and Peter Safran are looking to run this DC Universe for as long as possible, it would be natural to have some of their most iconic characters not already be too far into their respective arcs.
In most live-action incarnations, once Clark gets to Metropolis, Lois is normally already far into her journey as the Daily Planet’s star reporter. However, Superman could now explore the iconic couple on a similar path with their careers, which would also make the start of their love story very compelling. This would allow Superman to stand out a bit from previous movies based on the DC legend.
One of the bigger questions about this iteration is whether or not the Superman movie will end with Lois finding out that Clark and Superman are the same person. With a lot of details still being kept under wraps about Superman, there is a lot to look forward to with Gunn’s reboot. Hopefully, once Superman officially wraps filming, Gunn will be closer to finally releasing the first trailer of the highly anticipated DC Universe movie.
Superman (2025)
