Superman: Legacy, the awaited film that marks the inception of the new DC Universe under James Gunn and Peter Safran, is staying on course for its July 11, 2025 release, despite the challenges posed by recent industry-wide strikes. James Gunn confirmed via Twitter that the unwavering dedication of the crew, who have been working hard through what he referred to as "the longest strikes in Hollywood history," has allowed the film to maintain its scheduled debut date.

With the actors' and writers' strikes now concluded, productions across Hollywood are picking up pace. Prior to the strikes, Gunn successfully completed the script for Superman: Legacy and finished casting key roles, including David Corenswet as Superman and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. The resolution of the strikes is helping finalise the status of many anticipated projects, with updates such as Deadpool 3 being the sole Marvel Cinematic Universe film for 2024 and the return of House of the Dragon for its second season slated for early summer 2024.

Fans eagerly anticipating the new era for DC, sparked by Superman: Legacy's release, can look forward to more details and updates as the film approaches its premiere date. The strong connection the film's crew has to their work promises a memorable start to a fresh chapter in the Superman saga.
