"I am sold on the movie" - Superman first trailer brings back hope to the DC Universe

After what seems to be a long and dark night for the entirety of the DC universe, hope seems to be back with the new Superman. With all the big changes, the reboot of the fan-favorite Man of Steel had its doubters at first, but it has slowly turned the tide, and, with the new trailer, it seems to have achieved a complete turnaround.

The new movie, which is set to release on July 11, 2025, released its first teaser trailer today, giving a detailed look into the world of Superman, with David Corenswet putting on the iconic robes with conviction. Everything else also looks and feels just right in the trailer.

Since the release of the trailer, fans couldn't keep their calm and have responded with wild enthusiasm on all social media platforms, especially X (formerly known as Twitter).

User JuanEdits posted a clip from the trailer featuring Corenswet's Superman saving a little girl in slow motion and said:

"From this scene alone I am SOLD ON THE MOVIE. #SupermanMovie."

This tweet captures the essence of the emotions that fans are feeling on seeing the first trailer. Many other fans also tweeted along the same lines.

"Like dude these two clips alone hit so different we’re really getting the symbol of hope back man 😭"- another fan wrote.

"I didn't thing they had the guts to adapt this scene, but they f*cking did it. I'm crying."- another fan said, referring to a particular scene of a boy raising a flag in the trailer.

"Symbol of HOPE ❤️"- another fan wrote.

"This is what've been missing in Superhero movies these days....nothing extraordinary and out of the world stuff. A simple human save like these ❤️"- another fan wrote referring to the same iconic scene of Corenswet saving a girl in his superhero costume.

The movie now seems all set to kickstart a new era for the DC universe, which will finally perhaps go on a different path from the earlier one.

Superman trailer has more than a few impressive elements

Fans had mixed expectations from the upcoming film, partly because there was a lot of confusion surrounding the transition from the earlier DCEU, which was dominated by Zack Snyder movies, to the new DCU under the guidance of James Gunn.

However, the trailer of the upcoming movie seems to have put a lot of the doubts to rest, with the trailer hinting at a packed superhero flick that goes back to its roots and focuses on perhaps the greatest comic book character in all its simple, yet elegant, glory.

The trailer begins with Corenswet's Superman seemingly injured, lying in the snow. But he soon gets help from Krypto, a character who's also receiving a lot of love since the trailer dropped.

The trailer goes on to depict various scenes from the movie, including Superman saving a little girl in slow motion. There are also glimpses of other characters like Lex Luthor and Louis Lane, with everyone fitting perfectly in the setting and the context.

All in all, this seems like a perfect trailer, and if the movie is indeed an expanded version of this, fans are going to have a great time witnessing this.
