As of July 11, 2024, it's only one year until James Gunn's Superman hits theaters where fans will meet to a new actor in the red and blue spandex. James Gunn has made it clear that this will not be an origin story, setting it apart from most other new iterations. Zack Snyder also set his Superman apart from previous iterations by having him actually fight rather than lift heavy objects above his head. The one thing he failed to utilize, which James Gunn looks to be rectifying, is the Clark Kent character.
