James Gunn Set for Additional Filming on Upcoming "Superman" Movie
Posted on December 09, 2024 by Neil Cole
According to The Hollywood Reporter, director James Gunn is scheduled to conduct a few extra days of filming on "Superman" in Los Angeles in the near future. This news was shared in THR's "Heat Vision" newsletter, which reported on Gunn's recent screening of the unfinished film. According to the publication, Gunn showed the incomplete movie to a select group of trusted crew members, but the director confirmed that the additional filming will not be as extensive as initially reported.
In a response to the article, Gunn clarified the situation on his Threads social media account. "Not a few days. We're doing a day and a half of pickup shots. No scenes. No reshoots. Just a handful of individual shots to enhance the film," he stated. This response indicates that while the film is nearing completion, there are still minor adjustments being made to enhance the overall presentation of the story.
The practice of additional shooting, commonly referred to as reshoots or pickups, is an integral part of the filmmaking process. These additional filming days can happen for various reasons, and they are not a sign of trouble on set. In fact, they are a normal and often strategic part of post-production.
Previously know as "Superman: Legacy", the film stars David Corenswet as Superman/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Wendell Pierce as Perry White, Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher, Terence Rosemore as Otis, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner/Green Lantern, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, María Gabriela de Faría as The Engineer, Mikaela Hoover as Cat Grant, Beck Bennett as Steve Lombard, Christopher McDonald as Ron Troupe, Neva Howell as Martha Kent, and Pruitt Taylor Vince as Jonathan Kent.
"Superman" is currently scheduled to premiere in theaters on July 11th, 2025.
