James Gunn’s Superman is now in its second week of filming in Cleveland, Ohio, and those latest images suggest that a first showdown between superpowers may be imminent.
Yesterday we attended a practice session at Progressive Field (dubbing of LordTech Field) that foreshadowed a confrontation between the Man of Steel (David Corenswet) and a tough enemy (most likely the anonymous villain we saw in the images of previous shoots). ), and those most recent shots reveal that Mr. Terrific (Edi Gathegi) and The Engineer (María Gabriela de Faría) will also be involved.
The footage isn’t particularly telling, but if you watch the video and wait until the end, you’ll see Superman and “Ultraman” strapped to harnesses as they prepare to melt into the ground.
