As a seasoned moviegoer with decades of film history under my belt, I must say that James Gunn‘s decision to title his upcoming Superman movie simply “Superman” is a breath of fresh air. In an era where sequels and reboots often come with lengthy, convoluted titles, this straightforward approach feels refreshingly bold.
Initially, director James Gunn revealed that his upcoming Superman film would be called “Superman: Legacy.” However, he later confirmed that it will actually bear a more straightforward name – simply “Superman.” Though many factors may have influenced this change, Gunn explained that despite Superman’s long history on screen, this new story aims to pave the way for the franchise’s future. Consequently, the title “Superman” reflects the film’s focus on looking ahead rather than dwelling on the past. The movie is scheduled to hit theaters on July 11, 2025.
As a dedicated movie reviewer, I’ve always believed that the essence of ‘Legacy’ is subtly woven into this cinematic masterpiece. During our preparations for filming, we engage in an intriguing exercise known as the ‘pre-mortem.’ Ever heard of it? It’s a fascinating process. We gather all the key crew members and pose a hypothetical question: ‘Let’s imagine this movie is a catastrophic failure, two years from now when it’s released, it falls flat. What are we doing right now that we’re not discussing, that we might be inadvertently steering this production towards disaster?’ This proactive approach helps us to avoid potential pitfalls and ensure the best possible outcome for our audience.
He added, “This approach allows everyone involved to express their opinions, be it about the script, casting, or lack of communication among departments. Everyone, from transportation to any department, is given the opportunity to voice their thoughts. I found this method incredibly beneficial.
In contrast to the various titles given to Batman films, filmmakers have opted for diverse names when it comes to Superman stories. For instance, the first Superman movie from 1978 is called “Superman: The Movie” in some sources. Chris Gunn’s choice to keep the title simple feels surprisingly daring given this context.
The filmmaker explained that initially, they believed the title might convey a sense of reminiscing, but it’s actually more about progression rather than reflection. When you watch the movie, you’ll realize why it’s called “Legacy,” as it explores Clark’s connection to the script and questions who he truly is in terms of legacy. However, as a title, they felt it gave an impression of looking back too strongly.
Superman is set to hit theaters on July 11, 2025.
