James Gunn has officially revealed the Superman: Legacy production start date, confirming that filming on the highly anticipated movie will begin next year.
In a recent message on the Instagram social media platform Threads, Gunn responded to a report on the film’s production date and logline. While Gunn said that the logline was inaccurate, he did confirm that production will begin in March 2024, and praised the team behind the film for making it possible.
“But, yeah, we shoot in March,” said Legacy. “I’m grateful every day our production team worked their asses off to keep things going through the strikes. Forces impelled us to stop many times – & if we had we’d never make July 2025.”
