The first trailer for the new “Superman” movie has finally dropped, and between the iconic John Williams theme music and the action packed clip, everyone is getting excited to see it.
On Thursday, DC Studios shared the two-minute plus trailer on YouTube and it quickly became the top trending video on the site with more than 9 million views and counting at the time of this publication.
The first shot shows Superman, aka Clark Kent, played by David Corenswet, all bloody and bruised after landing hard on a frozen landscape, as he wheezes and gasps for air.
Help soon arrives from his trusty four-legged sidekick Krypto as Superman utters one of the few words in the entire clip, “Take Me Home.”
The new superhero film comes from writer-director James Gunn — known for the hit “Guardians of the Galaxy” franchise.
“It’s not just Clark. It’s not just Superman,” Gunn said at the trailer reveal, per IGN. “It’s Clark/Superman. And the only people that know Clark/Superman are his mom and his dad and a few others who know who he is, and those are very different things.”
“People said all sorts of different things,” he added. “They said, ‘Clark’s the real one.’ They said, ‘Superman’s the real one and Clark’s the secret identity.’ But I don’t – and it says it in my script on the second page – I don’t believe either of those things. I don’t think anybody knows Superman unless they know both of him. And when they know both of him, they know the real guy. And that means not too many people.”

Speaking to members of the press at the trailer launch, Gunn also talked about incorporating the goodness of the Man of Steel as a representative of the U.S.A., according to The Hollywood Reporter.
“I think that’s what ‘Take me home’ is all about,” Gunn said. “We do have sort of a battered vision of Superman at the beginning, and I think that is our country.”
“I believe in the goodness of human beings, and I believe that most people in this country, despite their ideological beliefs or their politics, are doing their best to get by and trying to be good people, despite what it may seem like for the other side, no matter what that other side might be,” he added.
The video is full of action with familiar faces of the franchise both good and evil, like Lois Lane, Mr. Terrific, and Hawkgirl. Most notable has got to be the new face of villain Lex Luthor, played by Nicholas Hoult.
“Lex is really a sort of sorcerer in a way,” Gunn previously told reporters. “He’s a scientist, but he’s so good at science and I think of him as like a sorcerer.”
“Superman” hits theaters next summer on July 11, 2025.
