That’s a wrap on James Gunn’s Superman.
In a social media post, Gunn announced the completion of filming on Superman, which soars into theaters next summer. Gunn, the writer and director of Superman, expressed his gratitude and appreciation to those involved in the production.
“And that’s a wrap. God bless our cast and crew, whose commitment, creativity, and hard work have brought this project to life,” Gunn wrote in the caption. “I set out to make a movie about a good man in a world that isn’t always so much. And the goodness and kindness and love I’ve encountered on a daily basis on the set has inspired me and thrust me forward when I felt too spent to move on my own.”
Gunn continued: “Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. It has been an honor. The destination has been Superman, but the journey has been the toil and the laughter and the emotions and ideas and magic we’ve shared together on set — and for that I am forever grateful.”
Gunn posted a photo from the first week of filming in Norway with select cast and crew members, including David Corenswet and Nicholas Hoult.
