Fan Casting Superman: Legacy (2025)

Although it is not an origin story, the film focuses on a young version of Superman as a reporter interacting with key characters such as Lois Lane[61] as he goes on a journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human family in Smallville, Kansas.[58] Safran described Superman in the film as "the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way; he's kindness in a world that thinks of kindness as old fashioned".[42] Gunn and Safran consider the film to be the true beginning of the DCU.[62]
