Superman’s Movie Trailer Just Broke An 18-Year-Old DC Film Record I"m Glad To See End
The first trailer for James Gunn"s upcoming Superman has confirmed that the highly-anticipated reboot will break a surprising DC movie pattern, revisiting an iconic location from DC Comics that we haven"t seen properly on the big-screen in 18 years. Superman was first announced to be in development at the beginning of 2023, set to spearhead James Gunn and Peter Safran"s new live-action DC Universe. David Corenswet showed how great his Man of Steel will be in a new trailer for Superman that revealed more about the 2025 movie"s narrative.
One of the most exciting elements of Superman"s first trailer was that we caught a glimpse of the vibrant new world that Gunn and Safran have created for their new franchise. Not only did we get shown notable locations such as the Daily Planet building and LuthorCorp, but the Superman trailer also provided a first-look at the DCU"s new Fortress of Solitude. This is a hugely important place in the evolution of Superman, as he learned of his Krytonian heritage and purpose on Earth in the Fortress of Solitude, so seeing it again in 2025"s Superman is very exciting.
The Fortress Of Solitude Was Last Seen In A Movie In 2006 The Fortress Of Solitude Last Appeared On The Big-Screen In Superman Returns Close The last time the Fortress of Solitude was properly seen in its full glory in a DC movie was 18-years-ago, back in 2006"s Superman Returns. Brandon Routh"s Man of Steel used the location as his base of operations after returning from his five-year hiatus, shortly after Lex Luthor steals Kryptonite crystals from the Fortress. Prior to Superman Returns, the Fortress of Solitude was a pivotal location during Christopher Reeve"s time as Superman, but the important setting has been ignored and neglected in the years since.
