James Gunn’s Superman is shaping up to be the blockbuster of the summer. It’s received rave reviews, audiences are loving it, and it’s exceeding box office expectations. For Warner Bros., this is a dream come true, as they’ve been praying this would be the foundation of their upcoming Gunn-led DCU.
