James Gunn has hinted that in Superman: Legacy, there will be a unique approach to reimagining the iconic music for the Man of Steel. The film, directed by Gunn, is part of DC Studios' Chapter 1, "Gods and Monsters," and is set to start filming in 2024.

Superman: Legacy Is Already Setting Itself Apart From Other Superman Movies
: When this story was published, the composer for Superman: Legacy was unknown. However, Gunn's comments indicate that there is a growing vision for the score's composition. While a composer has not been announced yet, it is not surprising to expect an announcement later in the year, considering they have a clear idea of what they are seeking.Gunn discusses the need for a fresh approach to the score of Superman: Legacy, indicating the creative direction for DC Studios' revival of the character. From the outset, Gunn has been explicit in stating that although Superman: Legacy is a reboot, it will not be a conventional origin tale for this youthful iteration of Clark Kent. Instead, the narrative will trace Superman's early days as a superhero while he concurrently navigates his role as a journalist at the Daily Planet.
Superman: Legacy will draw inspiration from The Batman, as stated by Gunn. In this universe, superheroes are already established, and it wouldn't be surprising if Clark is familiar with other DC icons. More details will likely be revealed during filming, either through official announcements or set photos and videos.
Throughout the rest of the year, it will be exciting to see which actors are cast in Superman: Legacy, as rumors suggest that Lex Luthor and members of The Authority will be included. If everything goes according to plan, production will begin in January 2024, so fans can expect news to come out soon. Only time will tell what other surprises await in Superman: Legacy.
