James Gunn's Mysterious Tweet Sparks Martian Manhunter Theories

Aug 23, 2024 4:32 PM

In a recent update on social media, DC Universe chief James Gunn hinted at the possible inclusion of Martian Manhunter in future projects with a playful tweet featuring Chocos, a snack beloved by the superhero. While fans speculate about Martian Manhunter's role in upcoming DCU films, it's important to note that he is not currently slated for the next Superman film or any accompanying TV shows. This teaser comes as part of a broader discussion on the DCU's development pipeline, which includes several confirmed projects such as Superman and Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow set to release in 2025. Other projects like Peacemaker Season 2 and animated features are also in progress, showcasing Gunn's focus on re-establishing the DC Universe's cinematic presence.

Will Martian Manhunter appear in the upcoming Superman movie?

No, Martian Manhunter is currently not scheduled to appear in the upcoming Superman film directed by James Gunn. However, fans are hopeful that his inclusion in future DCU projects is being considered.

Martian Manhunter, or J'onn J'onzz, is one of the founding members of the Justice League and is celebrated for his shape-shifting abilities, super strength, and telepathy. Often portrayed as one of the most powerful heroes in the DC Universe, he has been a fan-favorite character for years, though he has historically received limited screen time in both comics and adaptations. The possibility of his return to prominence in upcoming DCU projects has reignited interest among the fanbase.
