Superman director James Gunn has shared a first-look photo from the film featuring David Corenswet suiting up as the Man of Steel.

This is our first look at the Superman suit in the movie and it’s definitely different from any of the suits we’ve seen before on the big screen, and it looks like it’s been through some heavy action. You can also see that this version of the suit will have the iconic red trunks.

It looks as if the suit is inspired by the Superman suit from the 2011 DC Comics’ New 52 reboot, with some little variations.

In the photo, Clark Kent is preparing to patrol the Metropolis skyline in the image as something crazy is happening in the city. I like the image and I can’t wait to see some actual footage!

Superman will tell the story of “Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.”

Superman stars David Corenswet as Clark Kent / Superman; Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane; Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor; Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern; Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl; Edi Gathegi as Michael Holt / Mr. Terrific; Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen; María Gabriela de Faría as Angela Spica, aka The Engineer; Sara Sampaio, as Eve Teschmacher; and Terence Rosemore as Otis.

Superman will launch the movie part of DC Studios’ Gods and Monsters: Part 1. It’s scheduled for a theatrical release on July 11, 2025.
