Description

A new Superman is flying into theaters—and one of us is flying off into the sunset.


In this bittersweet episode, we react to James Gunn’s Superman (2025). Did we like the suit? How was the casting? Are we vibing with the new tone? And can this reboot can actually save the DC Universe? We talk about what excites us, what worries us, and what this new era of DC films could mean for superhero movies.


And… it’s Nicole’s final episode as a regular host. We celebrate her time on the podcast with laughs, nostalgia, and a few jabs (because, let’s be honest, she wouldn’t want it any other way).


We discuss:

🦸‍♀️ David Corenswet stepping into the cape
