Superman gave Clark Kent back his heart, but did James Gunn give our staffers back their hope for his comic world?

An A-lister makes an appearance in the new "Superman" movie, in reference to the hero's origin story.

Everything we know about the future of the DC Universe, from cast and crew to release dates, plus all of the DC Elseworlds projects.

It could be the charisma of Christopher Reeves’ Superman, or it could be the bruting aura of Henry Cavill. One thing is for sure, David Corenswet will officially go down as one of those iconic iterations of Superman that will be remembered for generations to come.

"Superman" is well-liked and should play for weeks in the U.S., but DC's path back to tentpole powerhouse status will take time.

Overall, fans of the superhero genre and the last son of Krypton stand to be pleased with the movie. Lighthearted and colorful, the Gunn production embodies the Golden Age of DC Comics, when Superman was originally introduced. The film serves as a solid introduction to Gunn’s DC Universe.

"Superman" soared into theaters this weekend, snapping up an estimated $122 million in domestic ticket sales and launching a new era of DC superhero flicks.

James Gunn's tentpole appears to be succeeding in rebooting the Warner Bros.-owned DC and its most prized superhero franchise. Elsewhere, 'Jurassic World Rebirth' bites off a huge $500 million globally.
