krypto the superdog rumored to lead james gunn's superman movie
Exciting news for DC fans! James Gunn, the co-CEO of DC Studios, is set to direct a new Superman film featuring Krypto the Superdog.
This information comes from Mark Waid, a well-known comic book writer. He revealed this during an episode of the podcast "Capes and Lunatics."
What to Expect
According to Waid, the movie will feature "a super-powered dog with laser eyes." While he didn't name Krypto explicitly, it's pretty clear who he's talking about.
Waid also mentioned that he has a good feeling about the film. He loves James Gunn's approach, which is both respectful and light-hearted.
In contrast to Zack Snyder's darker films, Gunn's Superman is expected to be more whimsical and fun.
Previous Works
James Gunn is not new to superhero films. He directed the "Guardians of the Galaxy" trilogy for Marvel. He promises that his Superman project will have a different vibe.
Fans have been speculating about Krypto's appearance for months. Earlier this year, some set designs hinted at this direction.
Characters and Cast
The film, formerly known as "Superman: Legacy," will be the first movie in the new DC Universe chapter called "Gods and Monsters."
Here's the main cast:
- David Corenswet as Superman
- Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane
- Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern
- Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl
- Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho
- María Gabriela as the supervillain, the Engineer
James Gunn confirmed that these actors will reprise their roles in future DCU projects.
More to Come
In 2023, James Gunn and Peter Safran, the other co-CEO, announced that Chapter 1 of the DCU would include both films and TV series.
One of the first to debut will be the animated series "Creature Commandos," set to launch in December.
