James Gunn's Superman movie swooped into theaters Friday, offering thrilling battles, big-hearted heroes and an amusingly untrained canine sidekick. You might want to see the superhero epic if you're into other films written and directed by Gunn (such as Suicide Squad and Guardians of the Galaxy) or want to catch the cinematic start to the new DC Universe.

In the wake of the soaring success of 'Superman', Gunn briefly spoke about recruiting a 'Guardians of the Galaxy' friend to play Kal-El's father.

"Superman," written and directed by James Gunn, brings Clark Kent and his superhero alter ego back to the silver screen.
