The latest “Superman” movie has everyone’s favorite superhero getting into trouble both in Metropolis and overseas, causing his popularity with the general public to drop. This provides Lex Luthor with an opening to get ride of Superman for good, with reporter Lois Lane, superpet Krypto, and others springing into action to help him. Director-screenwriter James Gunn (“Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3” 2023) has put together a more vulnerable, and hence more comical, Superman in this entertaining film with a 129 minute running time.
The cast includes David Corenswet as Clark Kent/Superman, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, and Nathan Fillion as the Green Lantern. These new folks fit in nicely as characters we have known for decades. Co-stars include Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olson, and Bradley Cooper and Angela Sarafyan as Superman’s parents.
The watchable “Superman” has done well financially at the international box office, but has not brought in enough income to cover the usual high production and marketing costs of such a film, much to the disappointment of producer James Gunn, The Safran Company, Troll Court Entertainment, DC Studios, and Warner Bros. Pictures.
