DCU Blog - April 2025 Edition: Superman Dazzles CinemaCon, Supergirl Films And More

Another busy month for DC fans with various news items coming left, right and centre.


Superman (July 11th) certainly made a splash at CinemaCon this month with a behind the scenes feature and merchandise giving a few things away. The movie also escaped a certain lawsuit too.

Paul Ben-Victor has joined the cast of Lanterns in the recurring role of extraterrestrial named Antaan. The pilot episode has finished filming. Chris Coy has also joined the show.

Garrett Dillahunt however will not be playing Green Arrow. There was an Instagram post he made that people got the wrong end of the stick with.

DC Comics Pride 2025 will be released from June 4th. Characters such as Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy, Alan Scott, Bunker, Midnighter etc to name a few. A boxset containing the previous volumes will be released on May 27th.


Filming is half way through on Supergirl: Woman Of Tomorrow (June 26th 2026). Some filming has kind of leaked Milly Alcock and Jason Momoa's respective looks as Supergirl and Lobo.

Robert Pattinson has joined the cast of Dune: Messiah, which will likely impact as to when The Batman - Part II (October 1st 2027) will begin filming.

An untitled DC movie is scheduled for March 5th 2027. If I were to guess, I'm betting it'll be Sgt. Rock.


A recent HBO trailer has shown clips for the second season of Peacemaker. The new season will be released on Max from August 21st.

Get Jiro!, an animated adult series based on the DC/Vertigo title will premiere on Adult Swim. 

Adria Arjona has recently commented on the prospect of being cast as Wonder Woman. She's previously worked with James Gunn in The Belko Experiment.


The second season of The Sandman will be released in two parts on Netflix. Episodes 1-6 from July 3rd and episodes 7-11 from July 24th.

Sadly this month, no further updates on Waller, The Brave And The Bold, Clayface and Sgt. Rock. The latter two will film in the second half of the year.

ITVX have recently added both Doom Patrol and Black Lightning to their streaming service.

A busy month for DC fans with the Summer of Superman on the horizon. Fun time ahead.
