Reactions to the internal test screenings for James Gunn’s “Superman” were largely positive, with many praising the film’s tone, Gunn’s direction, and David Corenswet’s portrayal of the iconic “Man of Steel”. However, responses to the most recent test screening have been more mixed, with some viewers loving the film while others were less enthusiastic. This was to be expected, as different audiences have different interpretations and expectations. Similarly, early reactions to Zack Snyder’s “Man of Steel” (2013) were also divisive, yet the film went on to gross $670 million worldwide, with Henry Cavill’s take on the character becoming widely beloved. Meanwhile, industry insider Jeff Sneider revealed on The Hot Mic podcast that “Superman” will feature a major surprise cameo. While Sneider did not disclose any details, fans have been actively speculating online about who it could be.

Although the mystery cameo remains under wraps, it has been confirmed that Supergirl will make an appearance in the film, setting up “Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow”, which is currently in production. The upcoming Supergirl film stars Milly Alcock as Kara Zor-El, Superman’s older cousin, who, in the comics, escapes Krypton’s destruction at the same time as her infant cousin. The film is directed by Craig Gillespie and features a supporting cast that includes Jason Momoa, Matthias Schoenaerts, Eve Ridley, David Krumholtz, and Emily Beecham. “Superman” is set to premiere worldwide on July 11, 2025.
