Anonymous sources state that whether David Corenswet continues to play Superman may depend on the commercial performance of the film "Man of Tomorrow." His existing contract is said to expire after this film, and while renewal is possible, DC's new management may make a decision based on box office results.
The leaker also claimed that management has prepared for potential financial losses on projects, hoping to keep them under $100 million. However, this figure lacks official documentation and should not be considered the studio's announced budget or profit expectations.
Related rumors also involve management changes at DC Studios. Reports suggest that James Gunn and Peter Safran will step down from their executive roles, with Jeremy Latcham taking over management duties starting December 1; Gunn and Safran will still be involved in creative projects, including the new Superman film.
Sources further speculate that the new management may reassess the direction of the DC Cinematic Universe, mentioning the possibility of Henry Cavill returning as Superman. Currently, no formal negotiations or agreements have been confirmed, and DC has not yet decided on recasting. "Man of Tomorrow" is reportedly scheduled for release on July 9, 2027.
