Let’s Revisit Superman (2025) - THE FINAL REVIEW!

Before Supergirl takes flight, we’re putting Superman 2025 on trial. In this episode of Should This Have Happened?, Rob and Tater look back at the movie meant to launch the new DCU and ask whether James Gunn’s Superman gave the Man of Steel the fresh start he deserved, or if it was just another studio reset button wrapped in a cape and a marketing budget. Because apparently rebooting Superman is now a sacred Hollywood tradition, like tax breaks and pretending every universe was planned from the beginning. We break down David Corenswet’s Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult’s Lex Luthor, Krypto, the tone, the action, the heart, and how well this version of Superman sets the stage for Supergirl. Did this movie restore hope, humanity, and purpose to DC’s biggest hero, or did it leave Supergirl carrying more weight than she should have to? With Supergirl right around the corner, it’s time to ask: Should Superman 2025 have happened?
