Man of Tomorrow Updates, Supergirl Casting Praise, and a Villain Worth Teaming Up For

James Gunn dropped fresh hints on Man of Tomorrow, describing it as a story where Lex Luthor and Superman work together against a bigger threat. We break down what that setup implies, why Brainiac makes the most sense as the antagonist, and how a Lex-Supes alliance could play on screen. We also touch on Gunn calling Milly Alcock “the best casting I’ve ever done” for Supergirl, and explain how Tom King’s Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow frames her introduction for audiences who only know the TV version. Quick hits include brief mentions of Lanterns and Clayface.

  • 00:50 Supergirl casting notes and tone

  • 01:02 Quick hits: Lanterns and Clayface

  • 01:07 Sign off and speculation

  • Man of Tomorrow positions Lex and Superman on the same side against a larger enemy.

  • Brainiac fits that “bigger threat” brief and naturally tests both Superman’s power and Lex’s intellect.

  • Milly Alcock’s Supergirl will likely reflect the grit of Woman of Tomorrow, which starts with a rougher, more human Kara before growth kicks in.

  • Gunn’s comments set expectations for a DCU that leans into character dynamics as much as spectacle.

  • “It’s a story about Lex Luthor and Superman having to work together to a certain degree against a much, much bigger threat.”

  • “Might be the best bit of casting I have ever done in my life.” — on Milly Alcock as Supergirl

  • “In my opinion, it’s Brainiac.”

  • “That’s the kind of combo you would need to fight Brainiac.”
