The DCU’s Superman Poster Makes My Biggest Hope For The 2025 Movie Look Even More Likely

:0:1

The first official poster for 2025"s Superman has been released, making my biggest hope for the DCU movie even more likely. Following a handful of teaser images for the new movie from DC Studios" James Gunn, the promotion for the first live-action movie in the new DCU has officially begun. To that end, the new motion poster and the movie"s teased score have me incredibly excited.
It"s been confirmed that the first teaser trailer for Superman is set to be released on Thursday, December 19th. However, the new motion poster is doing some solid work building up my hype for the upcoming DCU movie all on its own. Here"s why I"m seeing the new Superman poster as such a good sign for what"s to come, before any footage has even been released.
Superman's First Official Poster Has Already Given Me The One Thing I Wanted: John Williams Reinforcing One Key Idea About The New DCU Movie Well before the new Superman poster and trailer announcement were released, one of my biggest hopes was that James Gunn and DC Studios would incorporate the classic theme from 1978"s Superman: The Movie by composer John Williams. Known for his incredible contributions to cinema with his scores for the likes of Star Wars, Jaws, Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park, and more, I strongly believe the Superman theme is one of his most iconic. Almost 50 years later, the John Williams theme is still incredibly synonymous with DC"s biggest superhero.
As such, I was incredibly happy to discover that a new rendition of Williams" score can indeed be heard with Superman"s motion poster. Likewise, it was also an amazing surprise to hear the classic theme with orchestration more aligned with the Man of Steel themes from composer Han Zimmer (which I also deeply love). As such, this epic new snippet of what will presumably be Superman"s new theme certainly helps reinforce a core idea about the upcoming movie: legacy.

Custom Image by Lewis Glazebrook James Gunn"s upcoming DCU movie was originally titled Superman: Legacy. While I do like the simplified Superman title, it seems as though the core theme and aesthetic of legacy itself will still be upheld, especially if these new promotional images and posters are any indication. Beyond the exciting score, the poster itself is quite brilliant as well.

Featuring new Superman actor David Corenswet front and center, the new Man of Tomorrow is the single subject in this new DCU poster, surrounded by an aurora borealis effect of reds, blues, and yellows. It"s a truly simple yet striking poster, leaning into a contemporary superhero style while not being as busy as most modern movie posters. As such, the new poster certainly represents the timeless concept that has been teased by James Gunn himself for the upcoming Superman movie, as seen with past promo images that debuted the new suit or Kal-El sitting with his dog Krypto.
I'm So Excited To See How Superman's Movie Teases Become Reality In The Upcoming DCU Story I'm Hoping Superman Feels Timelessly Hopeful Close Unfortunately, the Superman movie itself is still 7 months away. However, I"m incredibly excited to see the upcoming teaser this week as marketing for the new DCU movie truly kicks off. The new motion poster and score have certainly helped reinforce the idea that this new version of the Man of Steel will be bold and new, while also tapping into the legacy of Superman and the timeless components of his character, such as hope and justice.
