Nobody at Skydance has seen Man of Tomorrow.

James Gunn says no one from Skydance has seen Man of Tomorrow, and that rumors of sweeping changes are false.

On November 14, 2026, the US search was not the movie. It was the rumor. Google’s trending list showed about 500+ searches for “james gunn man of tomorrow rumors.” The headline on that search was Deadline’s report of a post James Gunn wrote on Threads.

His point, as Deadline reported it, was narrow. A lot of untrue rumors are circulating. One of them says Skydance has seen Man of Tomorrow and is making sweeping changes. Gunn said nobody from Skydance has seen the movie. The people who have, he said, are Peter Safran and a small group of friends and family. Stories built on the other version are false. That is his post, via Deadline. Glare was not in the room.

A denial is not the cut

A director can say who has not seen a film. The same sentence does not show you the film. Deadline also reports that principal photography wrapped in August and that Man of Tomorrow is dated July 9, 2027, with David Corenswet again as Clark Kent. Those lines are Deadline’s. They are not a cut of the sequel, and they do not confirm whatever a rumor site added on top. The photograph is James Gunn on the Superman set in Cleveland in June 2024, not a studio still.

Leave the rumor blog alone

Other posts this week claimed mandatory reshoots, a scrapped release, or a recast. Gunn’s post answers one claim: that Skydance had already seen the film and was rewriting it. It does not certify the rest. A large search is not a source.
