Faster than a speeding bullet indeed! After leaping the global box office in theaters in a single bound, James Gunn’s Superman comes to Digital platforms this Friday, August 15! While Gunn urges fans to catch it in theaters while they still can, Superman fans with cherry home theater setups can look forward to Big Blue bringing one of his most exciting adventures to living rooms by the week’s end. Furthermore, the film’s 4K Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and DVD physical releases superhero-land on shelves on September 23.

After several weeks of release, Superman is flying high with a global total of $578.8 million after its fifth weekend. If Superman exits theaters this weekend, WB will collect around $600 million from Gunn and Peter Safran’s Dcu launch. While some of the movie’s haters are crowing about Superman coming to digital platforms so soon, it’s important to note that other money-making blockbusters...

Screambox has revealed the new films that are joining the Bloody Disgusting-powered horror streaming service in August 2025.

In anticipation of The Toxic Avenger reboot hitting theaters on August 29, Lloyd Kaufman‘s original The Toxic Avenger, its three sequels, and the “Toxic Crusaders” cartoon are coming to Screambox on August 15.

They’ll be joined by 50 more Troma cult classics, including Poultrygeist: Night of the Chicken Dead, Class of Nuke ‘Em High, Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, Sgt. Kabukiman N.Y.P.D., Surf Nazis Must Die, Tromeo and Juliet, Terror Firmer, and Cannibal! The Musical.

Other highlights include William Lustig‘s slasher Maniac Cop starring Tom Atkins and Bruce Campbell, Takashi Miike‘s sadomasochistic gorefest Ichi the Killer, Frank Henenlotter‘s irreverent horror-comedy Frankenhooker, ’80s heavy metal horror Black Roses, and horror web series “Serial” about two killers destined to collide.

The box office numbers for James Gunn’s Superman will have you looking up as the Dcu reboot continues to break records. And the latest revelation is sure to have Snyder fans screaming. Introducing David Corenswet as the superhero icon, Superman has been met with positive reviews from both critics and audiences alike, both of whom have embraced the more traditionally hopeful depiction of the character after Zack Snyder and the Dceu’s divisive take.

Now, according to reports, Superman has another record under his yellow belt. The Dcu outing has now amassed more than $500 million at the worldwide box office, which includes $292 million in the United States and Canada, meaning that Superman has now overtaken Man of Steel and become the highest-grossing Superman solo movie domestically.

This latest record is another example of how high Superman has soared in a post-covid, post-damaging Dceu world. As well as now being...

DC Studios heads Peter Safran and James Gunn have launched a new cinematic universe. Chapter One of the DC Universe, Gods and Monsters, officially got started with season 1 of the animated series Creature Commandos back in December, with Superman being the first film in the universe. Peacemaker season 2, which premieres in August, is also part of the Dcu. Other upcoming entries include the film Supergirl, which reaches theatres in June of 2026, the film Clayface, which reaches theatres in September of 2026, and the HBO series Lanterns. A couple of weeks ago, The Wall Street Journal revealed that the universe could continue to expand with TV shows that center on characters who are introduced in Superman. Specifically, they mentioned that “a knowledgeable person” told them Gunn is considering TV spinoffs for characters like superhero Mr. Terrific and reporter Jimmy Olsen. Now, fans have noticed that DC has filed trademark applications for ‘Mr. Terrific’ in multiple categories: Apparel,...

Exclusive: Jonah Feingold (Dating & New York), Melissa DuPrey (How to Die Alone), and Paulina Singer (Gotham) have wrapped on You Can Do Better, a romantic comedy marking the feature debut of writer-director Diego Lanao, in which Lanao also stars.

The indie tells the story of two lifelong friends who start a dating show in NYC. The situation becomes complicated when their success accelerates faster than anyone could have imagined. The project explores the tension between love and loneliness, questioning whether one escapes solitude by helping others find meaningful relationships.

Pic is produced by Ycbd Film and John Iadarola, Miranda Montenegro, and Francesca Escarraga, in association with Digital Bodega, alongside executive producer Iasmel Vasquez.

Known for roles in films like At Midnight, EXmas, and Dating & New York, Feingold is also a filmmaker who directed David Spade and Theo Von in the upcoming comedy Busboys, penned by the stand-up duo. He is repped by UTA,...

All eyes are still on the box office results for James Gunn’s Superman reboot, with the financial earnings of the first big-screen Dcu outing expected to decide the future of the fledgling franchise. While debate rages on regarding whether Superman has been the success the studio hoped for, it’s slowly becoming harder and harder for the naysayers (largely Snyder fans) to keep up the facade that Gunn’s take on the Man of Steel has not done exactly what it needed to do.

The latest box office reports reveal that Superman is more than keeping up with its comic book counterparts over at Marvel, having now grossed $406.8 globally in a huge win for the superhero outing. After dropping a less-than-expected 54% over the weekend, matching that of the McU's hugely successful Deadpool & Wolverine, Superman picked up another $57.2 million, totalling a 10-day domestic tally of $235 million, according to THR.

Paramount Global and its broadcast network CBS have decided to end “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” in May.

The announcement was made by Colbert during a taping of his show at the Ed Sullivan Theater in New York City, where Late Show has been filmed since it started on the network in the early 1990s.

Paramount later confirmed the decision in a statement released Thursday afternoon, with co-ceo and CBS President George Cheeks saying the decision was made out of consideration for the financial expenses associated with the program.

“It is not related in any way to the show’s performance, content or other matters happening at Paramount,” Cheeks promised.

The Late Show is the second highest-rated late night talk show program on television, behind only “Gutfeld!” on the Fox News Channel. On network television, it leads the pack,...

James Gunn’s Superman is flying rings around the box office with a worldwide debut of $217 million, giving the Blue Boy Scout a reason to smile all the way to the Metropolis Bank. The film’s tremendous success comes after months of speculation and online smear campaigns. However, the proof is in Ma Kent’s Blue Ribbon-winning pudding pie, as the movie boasts an A-rating on CinemaScore, and tickets continue to sell like hotcakes.

On Sunday, James Gunn posted a thank-you message to fans, expressing gratitude for their support and willingness to give his vision of the Man of Steel an honest shot.

“I’m incredibly grateful for your enthusiasm and kind words over the past few days,” Gunn wrote on Threads. “We’ve had a lot of ‘Super’ in ‘Superman’ over the years, and I’m happy to have made a movie that focuses on the ‘man’ part of...

James Gunn’s “Superman” is finally here a lot of famous characters dropping in.

Kicking off DC’s revamped slate, the film follows Superman (David Corenswet) three years into his life as a superhero, as he tries to balance his alien Kryptonian background with his human upbringing. Along with directing, Gunn also wrote the script, using characters originally created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.

DC Studios heads Peter Safran and James Gunn are launching a new cinematic universe with Superman, which Gunn has written and directed – and things are off to a strong start, as the movie already pulled in $21 million from its Thursday previews.

After years of waiting, David Corenswet is now all set to take to the skies as the Man of Steel in James Gunn’s Superman reboot. The reviews from critics have now emerged, with the Dcu take on the superhero icon having now received a rating on Rotten Tomatoes. So, is Superman the cinematic iteration of the character that fans have been longing for? Or does the Man of Tomorrow come crashing down with a rotten thud?

While Rotten Tomatoes is not the be-all and end-all when it comes to movie criticism, it has become a quick and simple way for fans to gauge whether something has succeeded or failed. Of course, there will always be discrepancies, but with this in mind (and we would still always recommend that you check out a movie for yourself regardless), let’s find out how Superman has fared with critics, and whether James...

James Gunn’s Superman reboot kicks off the new Dcu this summer, with the first outing for the Man of Steel both reintroducing the character to audiences while setting up the wider franchise. And while Gunn has previously explained how the Dcu will differentiate itself from the MCU (think quality over quantity), the writer, director, and co-Chief of DC Studios will take some cues from modern comic book moviemaking. Namely, we now have details of Superman’s post-credits scenes.

As the first social media reactions flood in, with critics and lucky fans finally able to reveal their thoughts, feelings, and minor details about the highly anticipated comic book movie, X/Twitter user @HollywoodHandle has revealed that Superman will offer double the fun with its post-credits scenes. Popularized by the MCU and the franchise’s desire to world-build, the Dcu will seemingly follow suit, delivering not one but two scenes after the credits.

Well, love is in the air. After years, Andrew Garfield is making waves online with his relationship status as he has been taken by this beautiful woman, Monica Barbaro. The Amazing Spider-Man actor has found love, and while their dating rumors have been surfacing since early this year, their presence at Wimbledon has finally confirmed that they are dating.

The speculations started to stir up the internet in the early months of 2025, since February. Their latest Pda at Wimbledon, where Andrew can be seen planting a soft, playful kiss on Monica’s cheek, has proved what the fans have been suspecting for months after tracking their whereabouts. But do you know who Monica Barbaro is?

The summer of Superman is finally upon us and, with the social media embargo now lifted, we finally know if all the waiting, all the hype, all the discourse, and all the marketing, was worth it. Written and directed by Guardians of the Galaxy’sJames Gunn and starring relative newcomer David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, Superman marks the beginning of the newly recalibrated Dcu on the big screen. So, will we be looking up in awe, or looking down in misery? Let's find out...

“‘Superman’ soars with heart, humor, and style—a bold yet faithful take on the iconic hero,” one critic wrote on X/Twitter. “James Gunn sets a fresh tone while honoring the character’s legacy, and David Corenswet shines with sincerity and strength. A promising, thrilling start to DC’s new era.”

“David Corenswet portrays an exceptional iteration of [Superman] with sincerity, heroism, purity, and inspirational traits,...

Playing an iconic character like Superman, and dealing with all the baggage and public scrutiny that comes with it, isn’t for everyone. Even David Corenswet, who stars in James Gunn’s upcoming Superman, admitted to GQ that he wrestled with the decision and tried to come up with reasons to say no.

“A role like Superman seems like something that everybody would want, and that’s not true. There are some people who wouldn’t want that role and who would, if given the opportunity, say no. I am obviously not one of those people. But I certainly tried to think of reasons not to,” Corenswet said. “Ultimately, what I landed on for myself was, if this is the only role I get to play for the rest of my life, and that means whether I get to play it once or get to play it 10 times, would I still say yes?...

** This Contest Has Ended **

In one week on July 11, the entire world will look up.

“Superman,” DC Studios’ first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from Warner Bros. Pictures. In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind. DC Studios heads Peter Safran and Gunn are producing the film, which Gunn directs from his own screenplay, based on characters from DC, Superman created by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster.

The film stars David Corenswet in the dual role of Superman/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan (“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”) as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.

While this weekend at the box office belongs to Jurassic World Rebirth, the next two-day respite from work (for most) belongs to the Man of Steel in the red trunks, Superman! James Gunn’s highly anticipated superhero film flies into theaters on July 11, giving the Dcu a fresh start after years of Zack Snyder-directed sequels, subpar solo films, and outliers that deserved better – I’m looking at you, Blue Beetle, Birds of Prey, and The Suicide Squad. Leaping tall buildings in a single bound for Superman is David Corenswet. However, there’s an Elseworlds scenario in which Nicholas Hoult (Lex Luthor) suited up as Big Blue, but James Gunn wanted a particular chemistry for his latest DC film.

During an interview on Jake’s Takes, Gunn spoke about choosing the right person to play Superman, saying, “A lot of time casting is finding the right person for the right role,...

We’re days away from the big blue boy scout flying back into theaters for a new reimagining, courtesy of James Gunn’s new Dcu. David Corenswet fills the shoes of the most famous superhero this time around, but it’s been public knowledge that Lex Luthor actor Nicholas Hoult originally tried out for the role of Superman. According to Variety, James Gunn recently appeared on Jake’s Takes and explained why he made the choice of Corenswet over Hoult for the last son of Krypton.

Gunn said,

A lot of time casting is finding the right person for the right role. Most people [auditioning for Superman] weren’t doing anything wrong, they just didn’t fit how I envisioned this Superman to be. Nicholas Hoult auditioned. He’s a great actor. Some might say he’s better than David in certain ways, but he just didn’t fit the role. That’s...

A little over a week from now, the Superman movie will debut in theaters, marking our first real look at the new DC Universe in action. With plenty of other DC projects in the works, the question remains: when will we next see the Man of Steel?

During an interview with Phase Hero, James Gunn was asked that very question. “A couple of years,” Gunn responded, before quickly adding, “Well, no, you might see him… you’ll see him before then.” Gunn asked if the interviewer meant “the character” or David Corenswet, saying, “Yeah, you’ll see the character before then.“

Fans have theorized that this means our next glimpse of Superman could arrive in one of DC’s upcoming animated shows, or perhaps as a faceless Superman cameo in another project. Maybe even just a brief glimpse of Superman flying across the sky. Place your bets!

Now that a Wonder Woman movie is in the early stages of development at DC Studios, it’s only a matter of time before a new actress is cast as the Amazonian warrior. One of the favourite contenders for the role among fans is Adria Arjona (Andor), and DC Studios co-ceo James Gunn recently said she’d make a “great Wonder Woman.“

In an interview with Extra, Gunn was asked whether fans should read into any of his social media follows of popular actresses, and what that might mean for her chances of being the next Wonder Woman. “50%,” Gunn joked, before bringing up Adria Arjona as an example.

“I follow Adria on Instagram but everybody came out [and said], ‘He just followed her, that means she’s Wonder Woman,’” Gunn said. “She’d be a great Wonder Woman, by the way.“

Gunn continued, “She was in a movie that I made seven years ago.

Christopher Reeve was seemingly Superman to a generation, but in reality, Reeve was Superman for all time. The installments in the Superman films and shows following Reeve’s series have paid tribute to the actor in some fashion. His legacy would no doubt go on with the upcoming James Gunn film, Superman. Entertainment Weekly reports that Will Reeve, son of Christopher, had visited the set of the film and the new Man of Steel, David Corenswet, would recall meeting him.

Corenswet recalled,

Will is great. He is the Superman type for obvious reasons. He’s tall, he’s handsome, and he’s got a great smile. Having him show up and give his support in that moment was very heartwarming. He also got to meet my kid when she was only a few months old. She happened to be on set that day, too. I don’t think she’ll remember it,...

DC Studios heads Peter Safran and James Gunn are launching a new cinematic universe with Superman, which Gunn has written and directed, aiming for a July 11th theatrical release. The marketing is shifting into overdrive as that date draws near, and the film’s stars David Corenswet (Pearl) and Nicholas Hoult (Mad Max: Fury Road), who play Superman / Clark Kent and the villainous Lex Luthor, respectively, both made appearances on Jimmy Kimmel Live! to talk about the movie with guest host Diego Luna last night. During the interview, they shared a clip that shows Superman confronting Luthor about a missing dog – and you can watch that clip right here:

You might want to stay off the internet for the next two weeks to avoid spoilers for James Gunn’s Superman. DC Studios, and by extension, Gunn, are going hard in the paint to promote the upcoming superhero film, and some fans are beginning to get upset. On Tuesday afternoon, James Gunn shared a new look at Ultraman, an evil alternate-universe counterpart of Superman and the leader of the Crime Syndicate, to social media, effectively ruining the character’s reveal for some.

Interestingly, Gunn’s Ultraman looks unlike his comic book counterpart. The character is covered in beige-colored armor and wears goggles over his eyes. Ultraman looks more like a Star Wars villain than an evil version of Superman, but it’s just a singular image. It could be David Corenswet beneath the armor, his identity revealed to the Man of Steel later in the film. We’ll need to wait to find out.

Not everything has been super leading up to the release of James Gunn’s Superman. When DC Studios unleashed the first teaser for the Last Son of Krypton’s latest silver-screen adventure, online audiences couldn’t stop talking about a sequence featuring Supes in flight. Instead of people flocking to their keyboards to celebrate the hero speeding like a bullet through a snowy tundra, they viciously mocked the look on David Corenswet’s face as he performed a daring barrel roll that would make Starfox’s Peppy Hare beam with pride. In no time, countless memes of Corenswet with googly eyes began circulating online, tarnishing the launch of an otherwise exciting marketing campaign. Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Gunn says he cut the controversial scene from the film’s final cut, and he’s not looking back.

“The part of him flying, it was a photograph of his face and him flying.

I’ve previously noted that the future of DC rests heavily on the success of the upcoming Superman movie — but James Gunn doesn’t see it that way. In an interview with Rolling Stone, the director and DC Studios co-ceo was asked how it feels to have the weight of the entire franchise on his shoulders.

“Really, I just go, ‘That’s their business.’ Because that’s not the truth for me. My truth is this is the first movie out of DC Studios,” Gunn said. “Other people may say, ‘It’s gotta be a home run, nothing else.’ I’m like, ‘No, I’d be very happy with a double.” F*****g Iron Man wasn’t the be-all and end-all. It wasn’t Avatar. We are doing something that’s a piece of the puzzle. It’s not the puzzle itself. We have Peacemaker, we have Supergirl, and what...

It seems like the perfect bridge from Marvel to DC is now here as Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn, who has had a long, good-natured history with the company (pre-Vol. 3 controversy notwithstanding), is now the co-head of DC Studios over at the parent company of Warner Bros. Gunn talked with Rolling Stone in preparation for the release of Superman and the writer/director says a crossover with the two rival brands is nowhere near impossible.

When the interviewer pointed out that a Superman/Spider-Man comic from the 70s is sitting near them on the table, they asked Gunn if something like that could happen ten years down the line. Gunn responds,

We’ve talked about it a billion times. That could easily happen, but simultaneous to that, I think it would be interesting. But I also think people are a little over it. I think people wanna...

On Wednesday, Fandango announced that Amazon Prime Early Access Screening for James Gunn’s Superman has become Fandango’s best first-day ticket pre-seller of 2025, outselling all other movies’ general first-day ticket sales this year. Prime early access tickets are available exclusively through Fandango.

Wonder Woman fans can rest easy, because DC Studios' head James Gunn has confirmed to Entertainment Weekly that a new "Wonder Woman" movie is being written right now. But fans shouldn't expect to see Gal Gadot back as Diana, because while this is the third live-action "Wonder Woman" film, it is almost certainly going to be a reboot, not a sequel to "Wonder Woman 1984."

The previous silver screen Wonder Woman movies were part of the now-dead DC Extended Universe. We're about a month out from seeing if Gunn's DC Universe Take Two can soar with "Superman." So far, of the DC Trinity, we only have David Corenswet cast as Superman. But Gunn does have plans for the other two.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, James Gunn confirmed that Superman will include a post-credits scene—now a staple of comic book movies. However, he noted that he’s learned from past missteps while at Marvel Studios.

“I have a philosophy about post-credit scenes,” Gunns said. “It’s somewhat related to my own mistakes in my time with Marvel.” The director explained that while these scenes can be exciting in the moment, they sometimes introduce storylines or characters that end up being tricky to follow through on in future films.

“I did not like what I did in Guardians 2 where we set up Adam Warlock and we set up the Guardians of the Galaxy and we set up all this s— that I didn’t necessarily plan on,” Gunn said. “Well, I guess I kind of planned on fulfilling that [Adam Warlock] promise, but you want to be careful about that.

Some blockbusters go right down to the wire, with the filmmakers tinkering away until the last minute, but Superman won’t be one of those. Director James Gunn took to social media to announce that Superman is 100% done and ready for its premiere next month.

The director also recently confirmed that Superman will run 2 hours and 9 minutes. The film has also officially received a PG-13 rating for “for violence, action and language.“

Early buzz is split: some insiders claim Superman is a fiasco, while others tout it as a spectacular kickoff for the new DC Universe. Either way,...

Big franchise releases are just around the corner for the summer movie season and two anticipated films for fans are the reboot to the most famous superhero of all-time and the sequel to one of the most beloved comedies ever made. Superman has been confirmed by James Gunn himself to have a runtime of 2 hours and 9 minutes and debunked the rumor that Warner Bros. interfered with his cut. According to Gunn, referring to the rumor, “Zero truth to that. And they couldn’t even if that’s something that they wanted to. It’s a DC Studios film.”

The MPA just released their new ratings bulletin and one thing they are confirming that Gunn doesn’t have to is the rating according to the content in the new DC Universe debut. It can easily be predicted, but Superman has been Rated PG-13 “for violence, action and language.”

Superman‘s runtime became a topic of conversation when an erroneous previous report was announced and a source claimed that the James Gunn film was to be 122 minutes. Gunn would later come out and say that the report was false, explaining, “That’s not correct. It’s almost totally locked – meaning we’re just finishing a couple VFX shots over the weekend – but that’s not the running time.” Straight from Gunn’s mouth, Superman‘s runtime will not be 2 hours and 2 minutes, but he has now confirmed the film’s runtime, according to Deadline.

As a filmmaker who often addresses fans online, Gunn was asked on Threads if it was true that Superman would be 2 hours and 9 minutes. Gunn responded definitively,

Inclusive of credits/post credits the runtime is 2 hours 9 minutes.”

I’m talking about more Superman character posters, folks! What? Do you think Gunn was done after just a few images of characters from the film looking their bravest and boldest? Think again!

Today’s new Superman character posters feature Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Maria Gabriela De Faria as The Engineer, Sara Sampaio as Eve Techmacher, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, and Frank Grillo as Rick Flag Sr. Like the previous posters, the red, blue, and gold light surrounds the cast, keeping on-theme with Big Blue’s iconic colors.

Original Article: Before you leap any tall buildings in a single bound to land at your local theater for a screening of James Gunn’s Superman, you might want to know how long you’ll be seated for one of this year’s most-anticipated cinematic spectacles.

The latest trailer for this year’s highly-anticipated SupermanSuperman reboot teased more of James Gunn’s action-packed comic book movie, as well as offering a hint of how the filmmaker will bring the Big Blue Boy Scout back to the big screen. While we were treated to a whole host of exciting new footage from the Dcu outing, one moment was shown again...but with a difference.

The first Superman trailer teased a scene in which a mob bombards the Man of Steel with angry protests, with one particularly disgruntled member of the public hurling a can at the superhero’s head. When we first saw this scene, Superman blinks as the tin can hits his head, which left many confused as he can, of course, brush off bullets without a second thought. Now, in the latest trailer, the blink has been removed, with Superman’s stoic expression remaining unchanged...

“I wasn’t representing anyone except for me, and doing good! People were going to die.”

In theaters and IMAX nationwide on July 11, Warner Bros. Pictures has released a fantastic 2nd trailer and new poster for Superman.

Superman, DC Studios’ first feature film to hit the big screen, is set to soar into theaters worldwide this summer from Warner Bros. Pictures. In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor and heart, delivering a Superman who’s driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind.

Check out the new trailer and get ready for the movie event of the summer!

When people think of superheroics, they focus on the lives saved, order maintained, and justice upheld. However, there’s another side to flying into foreign territory and laying waste to your oppressors. In the latest trailer for DC Studios‘ Superman, the Man of Steel faces the consequences of his actions, learning the hard way that saving the day isn’t as easy as rescuing bystanders, knocking out monsters, and causing untold amounts of structural damage.

In his signature style, James Gunn takes on the original superhero in the newly imagined DC universe with a singular blend of epic action, humor, and heart, delivering a Superman driven by compassion and an inherent belief in the goodness of humankind. Many versions of the Man of Steel exist across screens, large and small. Still, Gunn’s version thrives on optimism during a time when much appears bleak. It’s a refreshing take on...

It feels like we’ve already seen a lot from Superman, including a teaser trailer, a 5-minute preview, and a behind-the-scenes featurette, but a lot is riding on this one. Sure,Creature Commandos did give us our first little taste of the Dcu, but Superman will be the real test. Depending on who you listen to (or your opinions on the trailers), the buzz hasn’t all been positive, so Warner Bros. will want to push this one really hard to get people in theaters.

I hope the new trailer doesn’t show us too much,...

“31 Candles,” a romantic comedy from “Exmas” director Jonah Feingold, has been acquired by Level 33 Entertainment.

The film will hit theaters in North America later this year. Level 33 will also represent “31 Candles” for international sales at the upcoming Cannes Film Market.

“31 Candles” follows a 30-year-old New Yorker named Leo Kadner (Feingold), who spontaneously plans his long-overdue Bar Mitzvah after running into his former summer camp crush, Eva Shapiro (newcomer Sarah Coffey). Jackie Sandler, Dale Moss (“The Bachelorette”), comedian Jared Freid, Catherine Cohen (“Only Murders In The Building”), Lori Tan Chinn (“A Man on the Inside”), Caroline Aaron (“The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel”), Larry Owens (“Abbott Elementary”) round out the cast.

“This is all a Bar Mitzvah boy could ever want — a chance to share a personal, funny, Jewish love story with the world,” Feingold said. “I hope audiences support our completely independent film.”

Feingold also wrote and directed “31 Candles,” which is his fifth feature film.

The sneak peek also shows a little Superman and Lois Lane action, a few snippets of Lex Luthor, and robots healing the critically injured superhero.

David Corenswet (Twisters) leads the cast as Superman / Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel) plays Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult (Nosferatu) stars as Lex Luthor.
