Director James Gunn has revealed a song that he will not be including in his upcoming DC superhero film, Superman: Legacy.

Gunn will write and direct the upcoming DC Universe superhero movie. This film will “tell the story of Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice, and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.”

A fan asked Gunn on BlueSky what Superman-related songs would appear in the film, asking if he would use “Kryptonite” by 3 Doors Down. Gunn politely responded that he was sorry, but “that’s not going to happen.”

Gunn is known for his well-timed needle drops, with his soundtracks for the Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and The Suicide Squad being a major element of his superhero films.

Who is in the Superman: Legacy cast?

The film has cast David Corenswet as Superman/Clark Kent and Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane. The movie is set to release on July 11, 2025, by Warner Bros. Pictures.
