The Daily Planet - Superman News and Speculation Thread (🚨TAG SPOILERS🚨)

There's a WB live thing or something on the 15th so maybe something will drop then. I could see cast/crew confirmed on other stuff there, but they may still hold Superman close to the chest. Who knows.

There's no real rush for it tbf. They probably already took the photos they're gonna release and are just waiting for the day or so before any on-location shooting happens.

 

[GreenKToo]

I figure Gunn has went all out on the suit shoot.
He will want it to be just right, and just right it will be.

You talking about the Upfronts? I highly doubt it, those have always been for TV. Might get something on Penguin and/or Peacemaker, but that's about it.

 

[SupermansPal]

At this point, I really think that Gunn is only gonna drop it the day before they start location shooting.

I'd loooooove to be proven wrong, however.

 

[flickchick85]

Agreed. I don't expect him to risk leaked spy pics being our first glimpse, but I think he's got a tight lid on this production, so he will release it right before it's necessary, and only then, I'd imagine.

July 11 marks one year until the official release, and it also bears special meaning to Gunn since it's his father's birthday. So, maybe he'll reveal the suit then. If not, I have no idea.

They'll start filming on location in June, so I have to imagine that the first look will be out already.

Maybe a teaser, though.

I hope you're right.

 

[flickchick85]

Yes I do believe he will do SOMETHING in tribute that day, but I also suspect we will have seen the suit by then so who knows what. Personally, at this point, I'm just as excited for our first look at Clark as I am for Supes, so I'd kinda be hoping for that - maybe a shot of him with Jonathan/The Kents given the occasion.

So will we still get rugby postings if the suit is accidentally revealed, via spy photos?

Well, I've decided to get in on this action. Since The Batman is too cool to make his fans wait for spy photos by releasing a costume test before even starting principle photography, I am going to post a panel of Batman kicking Superman's ass every day until we get a shot of Corenswet in the suit:

Ah ok, didn't know that. I wonder if they're ready to confirm Waller or Lantern news then.

Oh yeah, maybe we'll get some Lanterns news! I can't believe I spaced on that one considering it's my most-anticipated TV project lol. That would be awesome.

 

[emielaen]

That rumored creative team is potent as hell so it'd be cool to get it all confirmed. Casting additions for Peacemaker would be cool as well.

 

[SwordOfMorning]

I'm so goddamn beyond down for a Tom King/Lindelof Lanterns show. Could not be more up my alley and I don't even have any affinity for GL, just that creative team alone is God Tier.

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

 

[Kane52630]

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

 

[STARMAN]

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.

 

[Deck Rickard]

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).

 

[AverageMan]

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

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...
