James Gunn shares Superman’s new photo from Fortress of Solitude
DC Universe co-head James Gunn shared a new image on X on June 7, 2026. The image appears to show David Corenswet’s Superman entering what fans believe is the Fortress of Solitude. The post, captioned “Inside the Fortress. #Superman,” has already gained over 625,000 views on the platform.
Notably, Gunn has not confirmed whether the image is from Man of Tomorrow or the upcoming Supergirl film. The director previously revealed set photos showing Nicholas Hoult’s return as Lex Luthor in the Superman sequel. Meanwhile, additional images went viral showing Superman taking down Luthor’s new warsuit, which Gunn had already teased publicly.
As for Man of Tomorrow, Superman and Lex Luthor will join forces against a common enemy in the sequel. German actor Lars Eidinger will play Brainiac, the film’s main antagonist. Additionally, Adria Arjona will reportedly portray Maxima, while the sequel will also introduce The Engineer and John Stewart.
For context, Brainiac first appeared in Action Comics #242 in July 1958. The villain travels the universe shrinking and bottling cities to absorb their knowledge. His targets have included the Kryptonian capital of Kandor, making him one of Superman’s greatest foes.
In the meantime, fans will see Corenswet’s Superman before the sequel arrives, as Supergirl hits theaters on June 26. The film stars House of the Dragon’s Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El alongside Corenswet.
Furthermore, a recently released clip shows Superman welcoming Supergirl to Earth, though a language barrier complicates their first meeting. Rachel Brosnahan will also return as Lois Lane in the upcoming Man of Tomorrow. The highly anticipated sequel is set to arrive in theaters on July 9, 2027.
