James Gunn drops first official photo of Man of Tomorrow's iconic super suit

James Gunn reveals first look at Nicholas Hoult in Luthor's iconic Warsuit James Gunn's Man of Tomorrow is only about a year away, and filming is well underway on the follow-up to 2025's Superman. On Monday, Gunn gave DC fans a promising update on the 2027 film, offering a crystal clear and enticing look at Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) in his trademark Warsuit. Posted "live from the set of Man of Tomorrow," Gunn wrote on social media, Luthor's Warsuit appears to be comics-accurate — meaning the suit of armor is bright green, purple, and absolutely massive. Luthor's Warsuits are designed to give the tech-genius supervillain strength and resilience comparable to Superman, and that will clearly play a role in Man of Tomorrow. Gunn previously teased Luthor's Warsuit in the original announcement for Man of Tomorrow, which featured artwork of Superman and Lex palling around, as illustrated by DC Comics president and chief creative officer Jim Lee. According to Gunn, Man of Tomorrow will be "a story about Lex Luthor and Superman having to work together to a certain degree against a much, much bigger threat." That big threat appears to be the alien Brainiac, who will be played by Lars Eidin
