A newDC Universereport reveals how long James Gunn’sSupermanmovie may end up being when the film hits theaters this summer. While the Man of Steel hasn’t had a solo film in several years, DC Studios is changing that with the arrival ofGunn’sSupermanmoviein a couple of months. WithSupermanbeing one of the most highly-anticipated movies of 2025, many are waiting to learn as much as possible about Clark Kent’s cinematic return.
In a new report fromThe InSneider(viaThe Hollywood Handle,) the outlet claims that the upcomingSupermanfilm with David Corenswet currently has a runtime of 2 hours and 2 minutes. This would make Gunn’sSupermanmovie the shortest of the hero’s roster since the sequels to the Christopher Reeve films. At the time of this story’s publication,DC Studios has not commented on theSupermanruntime report.
What The New Superman Runtime Report Means For The DCU Film
While time will tell how longSuperman’sruntime will actually be,2 hours and 20 minutes is not too far fetched for a Gunn movie in comparison to his previous superhero films. Not only wouldSupermanbe longer than bothGuardians of the GalaxyandGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2, but it would also only be 10 minutes shorter thanGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3. If this ends up being true,Supermanwould be longer than Gunn’s first DC film,The Suicide Squad, which was 2 hours and 12 minutes, coming in 8 minutes shorter thantheSupermanmovie.
However, it is crucial to keep in mind that this is only one report; hence the emphasis on"current runtime,“as the theatrical cut ofSupermancould easily be longer or shorter than 2 hours and 20 minutes. Given that there are still almost four months left untilSupermanhits theaters, a lot can change between now and then. It’s also possible that Gunn will clarify sooner rather than later whether or not there even is a tentative runtime forSuperman.
Our Take On Superman’s Reported Runtime
While the current reportedSupermanruntime is more than possible,time will tell if this actually ends up sticking once the film is released in theaters this summer. If 2 hours and 20 minutes is what Gunn is running withSuperman, it is still a lengthy runtime, which should offer ample opportunity to delve into the movie’s story. Hopefully, DC Studios will clarify as soon as possible whether or notSupermanhas landed on a runtime at this point.
