The Iteration of Superman by David Korenswet will start on the screen with the superhero already established, but we will have a prequel that will lead us to the film.
A summer of high flights awaits us in the movie theaters, with a lot of blockbusters ready to claim the attention of the public. Among them, today we highlight Supermanthe first film of the new DC universe after the “restart” orchestrated by James Gunn and Peter Safran.
With David Korenswet taking the mantle of the character from Henry Cavill, Superman will omit the origins of the character and will already present it as the titular superhero. In this way, we will save all the step through the Kent farm and the arrival of Clark to Metropolis.
Although James Gunn has chosen to omit those aspects of the film, some of them will be present in a prequel novel that will reach libraries just a month before Superman It is released in cinemas.
It’s about Superman: Welcome to Metropolis (Superman: Welcome to Metropolis), a story that will help us understand Clark Kent’s relationships with several of the main characters of Supermanas Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) o Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hault).
A prequel to establish the bases of Superman
According to the synopsis of Superman: Welcome to MetropolisDC Studios’s novel, published through Penguin Random HouseIt will cover the events of Clark Kent’s arrival in the city, where I didn’t know anyone:
“Clark Kent is a new face in metropolis. He tries to combine his new work in The Daily Planet with his secret identity as Superman, a powerful metahuman, while revealing a dangerous mystery that seems to be related to the infamous Lex Luthor. Discover how the first superhero in the world found its place in its new home in this original prequel based on the film“
DC Studios
Something to keep in mind is that synopsis defines Superman As “metahumano”, although it is technically an extraterrestrial. It does not look that James Gunn has changed anything about it in the film, so they may want to give a different approach to the term or that there is any explanation in history to define Superman as such.
Superman: Welcome to Metropolis will arrive at the United States bookstores on June 3, 2025while Superman It will have its premiere in Salas on July 11.
