Superman<\/a><\/em> may be still playing in theaters and may have just hit HBO Max<\/a>, but director and DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn<\/a>‘s already looking to the future. Not only has he announced a follow-up titled Man of Tomorrow<\/a><\/em>, but he also took to Instagram to share a picture of a draft of the completed script.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On first glance, there’s nothing remarkable about the image. It has the title Man of Tomorrow<\/em>, an appellation for Superman that can also apply to Lex Luthor<\/a>, whom, Gunn has stated, will be a co-protagonist of the film. There’s the author credits, one for Gunn and a “Superman created by” credit for Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster, reflecting the director’s commitment to the character’s comic book roots. But what does jump out is the picture on the cover, that of an old-timey medical drawing showing the human brain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
