James Gunn’s Superman movie in 2025, featuring David Corenswet as Superman, has built up much excitement among DC fans. These fans are eager for this film to succeed and rejuvenate the DC Universe on the big screen, following a series of debatable movies. Preliminary screenings have already occurred, with Gunn confirming that some minor retakes will be done before the movie’s theater release on July 11, 2026. However, fans are curious to hear feedback from these initial viewers. Two reports claiming to represent test audience opinions have surfaced, and their responses couldn’t be more contrasting.
According to Jeff Sneider, who shared this information on his podcast The Hot Mic, an anonymous source provided him with feedback from the Superman test screenings, and it was all negative. Previously, Sneider had written a favorable report about Superman, but after receiving a call from his most reliable source following the newsletter, he mentioned that there was one point in his earlier report where he got it wrong – that point being his view on Superman, which he now continues to hear is poorly received.
As a movie critic, I must admit that the recent news about the Superman reboot for the DCU might strike some as a painful blow to their optimism. However, let me share a glimmer of hope that surfaced during my latest stint on The John Campea Show. Contrary to some reports, the initial reactions to Superman’s test screenings have been overwhelmingly positive. In his own words, John declared, “I will come out and say the exact opposite. I’ve heard [Superman] is tremendously good.
In essence, it’s advisable to rely on the authentic promotional material for Superman rather than uncertain reports or speculative pieces that haven’t been verified as originating from Superman’s test screenings. When Superman hits theaters on July 11, viewers can form their own opinions about its quality based on the actual film.
‘Superman’s Reshoots Explained
Two contrasting accounts about the test showings of Superman might not be entirely reliable, but one indisputable detail has emerged from this process: it’s been confirmed that Superman will undergo some minor re-filming. This fact was disclosed by James Gunn during a recent DC Studios press conference. “We’ve actually held genuine screenings,” the director verified. “There’s always room for improvement, there’s always learning and making slight adjustments.
The phrase “reshoot” has sparked apprehension among fans lately, but James Gunn eased the concerns of DC fans by clarifying that the reshoots for Superman will primarily focus on minor adjustments. He mentioned some action sequences as areas requiring extra attention, citing an example where he wishes he had a particular punch landing perfectly, saying, “You know what? I wish I had a shot of that fist hitting that.
With Corenswet in tow, the cast for Superman also includes Milly Alcock, Rachel Brosnahan, Nicholas Hoult, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, Frank Grillo, Anthony Carrigan, Edi Gathegi, and others. Following Superman’s release, the DC Universe will make a comeback to the big screen the next year with Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.
