As absurd as it sounds, the rumor spread like wildfire, racking up over 2 million views. Never one to shy away from addressing fan chatter with a blunt response, James Gunn took to X (formerly Twitter) to clear the air in his signature no-nonsense style. The Guardians of the Galaxy filmmaker reposted an account making the claim, responding:

Recent rumors that studio execs are nervous about the Superman trailer are somewhat correct, but there's a catch.

James Gunn has addressed speculations on whether the Superman trailer underwent multiple cuts due to pressure from the studio. Notably, Gunn is not just the writer-director of the upcoming Superman movie but also the co-chairman and co-CEO of DC Studios with Peter Safran.

James Gunn is assuring fans that three songs that seem too obvious for a Superman movie won't be used for the DCU film.

DC Studios' co-head James Gunn underlines how the DCU's version of Superman is quite different from Zack Snyder's take on the Man of Steel.
