We’ve just received two new pieces of information about Superman Legacy, but they may be disappointing. Especially for fans of a well-known vigilante group.
We haven’t seen Superman in a feature film for a long time. So yes, we think of Henry Cavill, of course, but only one film has actually been dedicated to him. He then shared the cover with Batman or the other members of the Justice League. But he will make his comeback in a new film production with James Gunn in the lead. The director also made two statements that allowed us to know more about the story that will be told. And that might disappoint some.
Superman Legacy appears without Batman
Superman Legacy will change the situation a bit by showing us a much younger version of the Kryptonian. It is David Corenswet who will be responsible for the role of the superhero, which many fans did not like. The latter would have preferred Cavill to be kept, but Gunn decided otherwise. Regardless, some people have wondered: Could Batman appear in the film? In itself, this is not an irrelevant question. Our two men often have interconnected adventures, as it turns out Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.
But the director put an end to the dreams of a handful of viewers. On Threads, he stated that the Dark Knight would not appear in Superman Legacy. The reason is pretty simple: “It’s not in the script.” In fact, this isn’t the first time he’s confirmed this. Earlier this year there were rumors that Ryan Gosling had been cast in a vigilante costume. Gunn then responded with an emoji, making it clear that people were on the wrong track. At least this announcement has the merit of being clear, even if it will certainly disappoint some people.
As for his second statement, it directly concerns the character of Superman. Since it’s actually a relatively young version of Kal-El, some thought the film would focus on the hero’s origins. The legacy site supervisor is clear that there will not be a dedicated sequence for this. He’s direct and you can’t take that away from him. We saw it coming because even though the scenario is still confidential, we were already told that the story would focus primarily on the Flying Man’s legacy. For example, we will learn how his parents “ an influence on who he is, on the decisions he has made “. Be continued.
