Superman Ended With A Heartfelt Moment For Alan Tudyk’s Robot Character, And It Turns Out It Didn’t Come From James Gunn

Superman Robot 4, a.k.a. Gary, in the Fortress of Solitude.

Warning: SPOILERS for Superman are ahead!

Just like he did in 2004’s I, Robot, Alan Tudyk took part in Superman playing a friendly robot. This one was simply named Four… or at least, that’s how he’s known for most of the 2025 movie. By the end, however, he adopted the name Gary for himself, adding another heartfelt moment to enjoy following the Man of Steel’s over Lex Luthor. As it turns out, though, it wasn’t Superman writer and director James Gunn who came up with the name change, but rather Tudyk himself.
