Okay, so I just heard some awesome news about the Superman sequel! Apparently, Nicholas Hoult is coming back as Lex Luthor, which is huge! The movie’s called Man of Tomorrow, and it’ll be cool to see him go up against the new Superman, played by David Corenswet. I’m seriously hyped for this one!
Nicholas Hoult announced that filming for the next movie will start in April. He’s already read the script and described it as fantastic, exciting fans about what’s to come.
At the Red Sea Film Festival, Nicholas Hoult told Variety that filming will begin in April. He seemed a bit hesitant confirming the news, noting that DC Studios head James Gunn had already shared the information publicly.
What to Read Next
I noticed this while we were promoting the film too,” Hoult explained. “James generally takes the lead on controlling what information we share and when. I believe he mentioned at one point that filming would begin in April.
I’ve mentioned that already, and while I don’t see it as a problem, it might be. I suspect that’s around the time filming will begin.
When asked if he’d read a script for Man of Tomorrow, Hoult admitted he couldn’t say much, but described it as “awesome,” and hinted that it contained “some really fun stuff.”

Hoult also discussed taking on the role of Lex Luthor, expressing his honor to join the list of talented actors who have previously played the iconic villain.
I’m a big fan of James Gunn’s writing and his vision for the character. I feel confident in his direction for the character’s future, and I genuinely enjoy playing the role – it’s a really fulfilling experience.
Earlier this year, James Gunn mentioned in an interview with Howard Stern that filming for the sequel was tentatively scheduled to start in April 2026, with a planned release sometime in 2027.

So, we’re starting filming around April, which is awesome! We just announced our next movie, Man of Tomorrow, last week. It’s hitting theaters on July 9th, 2027, which is pretty fast for a sequel – we already had a solid plan for where the story was going, so we could move quickly.
The story centers around Lex Luthor and Superman reluctantly teaming up to face a far greater danger. While it’s a complex plot, their uneasy alliance is key. It’s really a story that explores both characters equally, giving Lex Luthor as much focus as Superman.
