James Gunn has commented on when the new Superman: Legacy suit will be revealed. The Superman reboot will serve as the first movie in the new DC Universe. David Corenswet will lead Superman: Legacy, and while recent photos have shown the actor's physical transformation to play Superman, the Man of Steel's costume is still unknown. It seems like that might continue for a good time, according to Gunn.
On Threads, Gunn shared that the Superman: Legacy suit will not be revealed before the movie starts shooting.
Superman: Legacy's all-star cast is set to go before cameras in March 2024. With Gunn claiming there is a "Zero-point-zero" chance that the DCU Superman's suit will be unveiled before the movie begins filming, there is a chance that the first look at the costume will come through leaked set photos; however, Gunn might officially reveal the suit on the day the movie starts filming to avoid that.
While the actual reveal of Corenswet's Man of Steel suit from Superman: Legacy is still months away, Gunn has already revealed a few details about what fans might expect from the DCU's Superman costume. The biggest debate about the new Superman suit rests on whether Clark should don the classic trunks or not. Gunn has weighed in on the Superman: Legacy trunks debate, saying, "To me, not the most important aspect of Superman or his story. But so many strong feelings!"
Gunn previously commented on the process of deciding if the Superman: Legacy suit would feature the classic trunks or not, revealing that "incredible amounts of concept art with" and without trunks have been made by the movie's team to decide on the controversial element. Gunn later commented on the search for the right design, telling fans it was not easy. More recently, it seems like the Superman: Legacy suit is almost ready for the film's March 2024 filming start.
In December, the Superman reboot movie director shared an exciting Man of Steel suit update, saying, "The costume is mostly done but we’re still going back and forth on some elements." That should explain why Gunn has now bluntly doubled down on his decision to only reveal the Superman: Legacy suit when filming starts. Based on his words, the suit is not yet finished, which leaves the Superman: Legacy costume reveal for next year as the only choice, though Gunn's motives could be more linked to the idea of preserving surprises for the audience for as long as he can.nting Update From James Gunn
