Secret Identity is a guilty pleasure read of mine! I love it.

Posting gifs of Batman & Robin even though this is a Superman thread until we get an official look at David as Superman (day 16)

Tori Pratt is listed on IMDB as stunt mocap for Krypto. The casting call for backgrounds in Ohio includes two days of filming where background will be soaked and extras have to be willing to get wet.

As for the photo release, the first possibility might be before the Macon, Georgia film shoot May 28-31 if David's Superman is involved. Either way, this is pretty much the last month of studio filming.

Everyone I know loves Secret Identity. I wish that I did. I don’t know why, but I couldn’t connect with that comic.

Posting a post voicing my frustration and annoyance at James Gunn for not revealing the suit until we get a look at David in the suit (Day 1).

I know it treads a few alternative boards throughout the story - but the sheer idea that a normal kid can somehow become Superman is every boy's dream!! The simplicity of the idea is what's great imo.

I'm making suit memes daily but too lazy to make it official...

Same! I mean, I adore the artwork and it's beautifully written... but it's just kind of a boring read to me.

Don't forget Jennifer Holland's comment. I think this month might be it

You know when you look at a word too long and it starts to look wrong?

Suit.

It is by far my favorite Elseworld.

HABEMUS GOOD BOY!

So a giant cat is confirmed as a villain in the movie. And it's comic accurate.

DC Film News says they reached out to Tori Pratt and her IMBD listing for Krypto is a mistake.

This is what happens when you trust the same site that once had Aunt Carnage listed in the Spider-Man 3 cast.

When do you guys think we could be getting our first trailer? January maybe?

She’s very obviously under an NDA, of course she’d deny it.

I was hoping maybe an actual teaser in December. Someone earlier suggested maybe releasing the first trailer with the Superbowl which would be a fun gimmick, but I feel it'd be too long a wait.

I personally just found it to be too coincidental which is it's point but I think it would have been cooler if the names weren't the same and he was just close to being like Supes. It was too much for me, I am personally surprised by the love for it. I don't even get the feeling of "ooh I could be Superman" the dude pretty much is him. (It has been a long time since I read it but I remember m having those thoughts at the time(

According to James Gunn, we shouldn't expect to see any kind of footage until next year.

 

[Deck Rickard]

Why stop there. Let’s not even see a picture of the suit until next year.

Actually, **** it. No trailers, no marketing. Just shadow drop it in theaters like it’s a Netflix movie.

A similar strategy worked really well for Cloverfield Paradox.
