James Gunn Says “No One From Skydance Has Seen” ‘Man Of Tomorrow’: “There Are A Lot Of Untrue Rumors Going Around”

James Gunn is clearing up some rumors following his exit as co-head of DC Studios. With Skydance making changes amid the Paramount and Warner Bros. merger, Peter Safran and Gunn announced they would not be heading DC Studios. Amid their exits, many rumors have circulated. One prominent story was that Skydance saw the Superman sequel, titled Man of Tomorrow, and planned to make some edits, but Gunn has shut down those allegations. “There are a lot of untrue rumors going around, but one of them is that Skydance has seen Man of Tomorrow and that all sorts of sweeping changes are being made,” Gunn posted on Threads. He continued, “No one from Skydance has even seen the movie – the only people that have are Peter Safran and a very small trusted group of friends and family. So any stories around this narrative are false.” Watch on Deadline Man of Tomorrow wrapped filming in August, with Gunn sharing a joyful post and celebrating everyone involved in the project. “That’s a wrap on principal photography for Man of Tomorrow,” Gunn shared on Threads. “Truly a joyful experience, and I have immense gratitude to my cast and crew.” RELATED: ‘Constantine’ Director Feels “More Hopeful” For Sequel Following James Gunn & Peter Safran’s DC Studios Exit Man of Tomorrow is set for release on July 9, 2027, with David Corenswet reprising his role as Clark Kent.
