Gunn posted an image from renowned artist Jim Lee alongside the announcement, depicting David Corenswet’s Superman (dressed in his movie costume) standing next to Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor. This pairing is significant, given the events of the initial film, and it hints that Superman and Luthor might be joining forces in the upcoming movie to confront an even more formidable adversary. Moreover, it appears that Luthor is donning his trademark green and purple armor, implying this alliance against a greater menace.
