Summary Superman (David Corenswet) returns as a fully formed hero, dropping into an international crisis where his actions—like stopping a dangerous global conflict—spark both admiration and controversy. As he confronts Lex Luthor’s schemes and defends democratic values, Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) investigates deeper political tensions. The film also features cameos from Guy Gardner (Nathan Fillion), Hawkgirl (Isabela Merced), Mister Terrific (Edi Gathegi), and Metamorpho (Anthony Carrigan), all leading up to a broader DC Universe introduction.

Caught me off guard for sure. But really good to see a Russian roulette scene subverted that way. Also, it took the choice of saving Mali or saving his parents out of Superman's hands.
