James Gunn on Superman reboot amid writers' strike concerns
James Gunn, director of Superman: Legacy, confirmed that the production will start shooting in January 2024, which gives the film plenty of time to meet its scheduled July 2025 release date.
Gunn also mentioned he is "recording voices" for Creature Commandos and "helping other writers" on DCU projects. This indicates that he is actively involved in other DC projects, which could potentially affect the Superman reboot's production timeline.
While Gunn seems confident that the reboot will not be delayed, the ongoing writers' strike by the Writers Guild of America (WGA) could impact the film's production.
If the strike continues until January 2024, it could affect the start date. However, a resolution or negotiation between the WGA and the studios could happen in the coming months, allowing the production to proceed as planned.
The start date announcement is a significant milestone for the highly anticipated Superman reboot movie. With James Gunn at the helm and a confirmed production start date, there is much excitement surrounding the project.
While the ongoing writers' strike is a concern, the announcement is a positive development that gives hope for a successful reboot of one of DC's most beloved superheroes.
Superman: Legacy will be released in theaters on July 11, 2025.
