Superman: James Gunn is nauseated after the odd France 2 episode
Appointed artistic director of DC Studios in 2022, James Gunn has a lot to do to bring audiences back to the Distinguished Competition films. However, the director of the trilogy Guardians of the Galaxy (for Marvel), The Suicide Squad and season 1 of Peacemaker (for DC) does not lack ambition; from December, we will be able to discover the first work of the DCU: the animated series Creature Commandoswritten and produced by James Gunn, and whose latest ultra-violent teaser was revealed to the public at NYCC. Creature Commandos will serve as an aperitif before the release of the film Supermanwritten and directed by James Gunn, expected in theaters on July 9, 2025.
This film, eagerly awaited by comic book fans, was at the heart of a sequence this weekend in the France 2 news presented by Laurent Delahousse and which caused a lot of ink to flow. Indeed, the channel unveiled a fake trailer created by Artificial Intelligence, instead of official images. James Gunn, who earlier in the week revealed an image of Superman played by David Corenswet and Superdog, reacted on the subject of France 2.

To an Internet user who wrote to him: “Oh no, I was hoping you wouldn’t see it.”, the filmmaker replied: “I hope so too.“Not only This oddity comes at a time when the use of AI is causing great upheaval and concern in Hollywoodbut in addition it seems to demonstrate the lack of interest of the France 2 editorial staff in superheroic productions.
In addition, NYCC was an opportunity for James Gunn to give news of the first trailer for Superman. He thus affirmed that the trailer will arrive neither too soon nor too late. Note that the first trailers for Mad Max: Furiosa by George Miller, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice de Tim Burton et Joker: Folie à Deux by Todd Phillips were revealed to the public between five and six months before their release. We can therefore expect a first trailer between January and February 2025. However, the event nature of the film Superman could motivate Warner Bros. Discovery to reveal the trailer in December 2024, in the wake of the series Creature Commandos on the Max platform. In any case, we hope that the France 2 news will not miss the mark and will reveal the right images this time!
