AceShowbiz - James Gunn, the director of the upcoming DC Universe (DCU) movie "Superman," has shared a new set photo featuring a surprise guest: Chris Pratt, the star of Marvel Studios' "Guardians of the Galaxy" franchise.
This is the first time a Marvel Studios star has visited the set of a DC project. Pratt's appearance has sparked speculation that he may have a role in the film, especially considering his previous comments teasing a potential appearance in Gunn's DCU.
Gunn has been known to include his friends and family members in his projects, but it is unclear if Pratt's visit to the set was strictly for personal reasons.
"Superman" will star David Corenswet as the titular hero, alongside Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, and a host of other notable actors.
Pratt remains close friends with Gunn after working together on the "Guardians of the Galaxy" movies. Pratt's most recent projects include "The Garfield Movie," "Jurassic World Dominion," and "The Super Mario Bros. Movie."
The production of "Superman" is on schedule, with the film set to hit theaters on July 11, 2025. It will be the first movie in the new DCU, which is being overseen by Gunn and Peter Safran.
