WWE superstars have a history of crossing over into the superhero universe — from Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson as Black Adam, to John Cena as Peacemaker, and Dave Bautista as Drax in Guardians of the Ga...

Warner Bros. Pictures’ “Superman” grossed an estimated $56.5 million domestically on Friday, on top of $22.5 million in Thursday previews.

Ozu served as more than just inspiration. Gunn’s pup also became the physical model for Krypto, who is computer-generated so he can do things like soar through the sky and attack villains.

This means that future DCU movies and series don’t need to only move the story forward. They can also take things back in time. A period story about a metahuman from 100, 200, or 300 years ago is perfectly acceptable. This opens up possibilities for different sorts of stories in a way that the MCU has largely had to rely on the multiverse to tell.

Despite the odds, Gunn’s Superman not only reached the high bar set by Donner’s film, but it actually improved upon the latter on several fronts, making it a far superior movie.
