Superman Shows the Start of the DC Universe Era with 'Man of Steel'; Superhero Made Fun of by MCU's Deadpool
Superman, being one of the primary stepping stones for the DC universe to come forth, was given an explanation in terms of relevance. The team said that it only makes sense for the team to push through with their plans after the Kryptonian icon's first rebooted appearance.
The DC universe seems to be stepping up their game in terms of creating quality films to rival that of the Marvel counterpart. This started with the implication that Superman will lead more characters forward-not just the Kryptonian nation, but also those from the Justice League timeline-both good and bad entities.
According to Comic Book, Producer Charles Roven claimed that it has always been the company's plan to launch the universe after the red-caped hero, with Warner Bros. considering the idea well and the successors delivering something unique dependent on their directors. This is also something that could further be beneficial to the DC universe in the theaters, given that the world of the television series is doing remarkably well. Supposedly, fans can still wait on other revelations to surface for the DC world apart from Superman himself.
Meanwhile, one of the most hilarious bits that came out recently is that of Marvel's Deadpool firing a comedic shot at Superman with their latest trailer. Upon seeing a crime take place, the Merc with a Mouth ran to a phone booth and tried to change to his superhero outfit. However, it took the red-and-black anti-hero took a little too long in the cubicle, with the victim of the stick-up lying dead on the ground. Stan Lee himself also had a cameo appearance in the clip, adding more humor to note.
In the future, Superman is expected to appear in the "Justice League" film and even further on with the sequels and other possible DC films. Stay posted for further news and updates.
