‘Superman’ to Film a ‘Day and a Half of Pickup Shots’ but ‘No Reshoots,’ Says James Gunn: ‘Just a Handful of Individual Shots to Enhance the Film’


James Gunn's "Superman" will not have reshoots but will film a day and a half of pickup shots, the director says.

Gunn previously shut down a follower on Threads for suggesting “Superman” would need to spend a significant amount of time and money on reshoots, writing: “I don’t know. “2) Don’t start shooting until I have a finished script my whole team is happy with 3) Hire actors and department heads I know can do their jobs 4) Surround myself with people who will challenge me and not just yes-sir everything 5) Ask myself daily – are there any small imperfections in the script or what we’re shooting that might end up feeling like huge imperfections when we cut the film together? The cast also includes Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, plus Skyler Gisondo (Jimmy Olsen), Anthony Carrigan (Metamorpho), Edi Gathegi (Mister Terrific), Nathan Fillion (Guy Gardner), Isabela Merced (Hawkgirl) and more.
