Overview
- Filming in Atlanta continues this week with David Corenswet as Superman and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, and the studio still lists a July 9, 2027 theatrical release.
- Multiple leaked videos and photos circulated online show a physical fight in which Superman batters Luthor and Superman’s suit shows scorch marks and rips.
- James Gunn has posted about a wearable, “100% practical” green‑and‑purple warsuit for Luthor and on‑set images show Luthor using a weapon that scorches Superman’s costume.
- Set material and reporting connect the street battle to a larger Brainiac storyline and suggest the film will have Superman and Luthor set aside differences to confront that threat, but those plot beats remain reported rather than confirmed.
- Most new details come from fan-shot leaks and social posts, so key casting assignments and specific prop uses — including a Nuclear Kryptonite ray‑gun seen in photos — are unconfirmed and worth watching for official studio confirmation.
