New photos from Superman sets go viral

New photos which have surfaced online from the sets of DC's Superman show David Corenswet donning his classic costume. However, his hands can be seen tied behind his back while being escorted by the military personally to a building. That particular building is identified as the Metropolis City Hall.

Movie buffs also caught a glimpse of a mysterious person behind Superman, who has the letter U inscribed on his black costume. Many fans have speculated that the letter U denotes Ultraman, Clark Kent's evil doppelganger from Earth-3. However, some have speculated that the masked man can be Ulysses aka Neil Quinn. It is said that he is working against Superman with the military.

David Corenswet introduced as Superman

The image made public on social media shows Corenswet's Superman costume for the first time. An explosion can be seen behind him while the man of steel is seen putting on his red boots in front of a window, possibly getting ready to go into action. Corenswet's outfit resembles that of Henry Cavill's contemporary Superman costume with one noteworthy exception, it seems that the character's iconic red trunks have made its return.

Gunn, who is the writer and director of the movie, told The Hollywood Reporter earlier, “I completely relate to Superman because he’s everything I am. He’s somebody who is an outsider who feels like an alien, but also the ultimate insider, because he’s fucking Superman. And that’s kind of like what I feel like.”

In addition to David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan, the movie also has Nicholas Hoult as the archenemy Lex Luthor. In supporting roles, Skyler Gisondo, Sara Sampaio, Edi Gathegi,  Terence Rosemore and others will be a part of the movie. It is slated to release in theatres on July 11, 2025.
