It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s script treatments, blue light lenses, and lots and lots of coffee. James Gunn has confirmed he’s officially working on a sequel to Superman (in addition to a ton of other stuff for the DCU). So, what’s he cooking up for Superman’s next adventure?
What has James Gunn said about Superman 2?
He’s getting the wheels turning. Gunn told Collider on August 16 that he’s “totally done with the treatment” for the second film. “We’re scheduling it now,” he shared. “My treatments are incredibly intense. They’re not regular treatments. They’re 60-page treatments with dialogue and everything. And so, now I’m just turning that into a script. We’re planning out when we’re going to shoot that. It’s going to be much sooner rather than later.” Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav also confirmed this in an earnings call on August 7, where he teased that Gunn will write and direct the “next movie in the Super-Family.”

When is it coming out?
It would have to depend on the new DCU timeline. Our guess? Maybe somewhere in between Lanterns and Clayface?
So, what movie is next?
Krypto’s dog-mom, of course. Supergirl is here to save our summer on June 26, 2026.
