James Gunn Removed A Controversial Superman Trailer Shot From The Movie

James Gunn is not a foreign dispute. In the early part of his career, he actively justified it by writing the premiere of the 90s Bad Maun’s 90’s Troma Entertainment and made his name “Romeo & Juliet, called Customs called the title called “Tromeo & Julia,” It brought enough sex and violence to Shakespeare to blush. And then was her Shooting a sad (and subsequent reuse) “Guardians of the Galaxy: Vol 3” after Gunn’s well -known NSFW Twitter history dug alt -right through jokes in the same curse.

For every Gunni before Marvelia fans, you are surprised to hear that his latest controversy is not only light compared to, but hardly even reaches the title of “dispute”. Because this is not a controversy that Superman crave Lois Lane, such as Troma production may delight, but rather a simple shot A 30 seconds TV ads It shows that Superman turns through the air before flying directly into the camera. Some online commentators pointed out that the shot feels awkward and wondered if this was just a tricky part of CGI or Doom for a movie that is A lot of rides on its wide shoulders.

Nothing about making a movie is easy in an interview Entertainment, Gunn talks about experimenting and mistake, which is necessary when that superhero lives in a new way. He compares the process of what he learned “Guardians of the Galaxy” and how he learned so much to shoot Superman flying out and describing it.

The fact that the anecdote urges EW to ask in particular about a commercial shot, asking if it became a controversial shot, “tells” that he has to do the job “to determine how these mechanics can be pulled to make David to fly authentically?” Gunn reduces the importance of the conversation around this shot by saying:

“No, I don’t think it was so much. It was a TV ad, and it was not ready for visual effects. So part of him, it was a photo of his face and flying him. It was a photo of a real droon flying in front of the real background. So all the songs were real, but it was included in the Funky.” I come from shots, but sometimes the ads, I forget to look at this carefully.

Using an unfinished VFX shot in a 30 -second ad usually does not cause such a blend, and maybe now that we have confirmed, the shot is not even in the final picture, we can put this whole “dispute” in the bed. But something tells me that the Lex skis on the Internet just look for some other supposed cryptonite to help “Superman”.

Gunn, for his part, has encouraged his partners and fans Don’t consider haters who “make their lives by hating us” And the fact that “every f ******ide Reddit is” “terrible thing to do for your soul”. So it’s good to hear that this shot is not removed because of setbacks, but because Gunn pays special attention to make sure that every “superman” frame rises as high as possible.

See yourself when “Superman” hits theaters on July 11, 2025.
