I’m honored to be a part of the legacy. And what better day than #SupermanAnniversary Day to dive fully into early pre-production on #SupermanLegacy? Costumes, production design, and more now up and running. pic.twitter.com/TJYpCRmdsf

Pruitt Taylor Vince has been cast as Jonathan Kent, the father of Superman, in Warner Bros/DC Studio's upcoming Superman film, according to Deadline. Jonathan Kent is an Earth citizen, while Superman hails from the planet Krypton.
Taylor Vince has been cast alongside Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, David Corenswet in the lead role, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher, Wendell Pierce as Perry White, the Editor of the Daily Planet, Nathan Fillion as Green Lantern, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Mara Gabriela de Fara as The Engineer, and Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho.
The film is set for a theatrical release on July 11, 2025.
Wendell Pierce has been selected to portray the legendary editor-in-chief of The Daily Planet in James Gunn's Superman.
Perry White is a longstanding character in the Man of Steel universe, debuting in a Superman radio serial back in 1940. He serves as the superior of both Kent and Lane, embodying various personas across different adaptations, such as a stern boss, a boss overwhelmed by his reporters, or a paternal figure.
In this upcoming film, David Corenswet takes on the role of Clark Kent/Superman, while Rachel Brosnahan portrays the Daily Planet journalist Lois Lane. The ensemble cast also features Nicholas Hoult as the classic antagonist Lex Luthor. Joining Gunn's lineup are Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen), Sara Sampaio (Eve Teschmacher), Edi Gathegi (Mister Terrific), Terence Rosemore (Otis), Anthony Carrigan (Metamorpho), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner), and Mara Gabriela de Fara (The Engineer).

Nooo that Logo isn't it, please Gunn don't do it.
honestly I was kinda hyped about this movie, but after seeing that Logo I'm getting face palm feelings, don't be driving down some wacky lane, keep it simple.

not a fan of that logo
I agree. I would never let the design of the symbol ruin the movie for me if it's good, but it can give us an idea of the headspace that the creators are in. The abritrary changes seem odd to me, and it doesn't look "right." It makes me wonder what else they won't get right. Again, it's too early to tell, but it doesn't inspire confidence.

James Gunn has provided an update on the production start window for the upcoming film Superman: Legacy, set to release in 2025. In a recent discussion on Threads, Gunn addressed a report that included a plot synopsis and production start window for the film. While he acknowledged that certain elements of the synopsis were based on his previous statements, he clarified that he did not write the logline himself. Additionally, Gunn expressed that he would not describe the plot in the same way and disagreed with referring to Clark Kent as a cub reporter. Instead, he emphasized that Clark is a fully established reporter in his thirties. Despite these clarifications, Gunn did confirm that filming for Superman: Legacy is scheduled to commence in March 2024. He expressed gratitude towards the production team for their dedication in overcoming various challenges and ensuring the film's progress, as any delays would have jeopardized the planned release date of July 2025.
