On Instagram, James shared a photo of Superman’s chest emblazoned with his instantly recognizable logo. The outfit is dusted in snow.

James let fans know that the movie would no longer be called Superman: Legacy. It will instead go by SUPERMAN.

Why did he make the change? “When I finished the first draft of the script, I called the film Superman: Legacy. By the time I locked the final draft, it was clear the title was SUPERMAN,” he explained.

“Overjoyed to be announcing the start of principal photography on SUPERMAN today, February 29, which just so happens to be – coincidentally and unplanned – Superman’s birthday,” he wrote in the caption.

SUPERMAN is expected to premiere in July 2025.

James recently shared the first photo of the cast, revealing that one of the actor’s had already made a big change to their appearance. Did you know that three Marvel actors will appear in the movie?!
