IMDB Names ‘Superman’ The #1 Anticipated Film of 2025

Internet Movie Data Base (IMDB) creates their annual most anticipated films list based on what users have searched the most –this can be seen from IMDBPro’s Moviemeter rankings. At the top of this year’s list is unsurprisingly Superman set to release on July 11. IMDB users have been coming to the page for years now for the latest on James Gunn and DC Studios’ production and it all comes to a head this summer. 

Superman takes the place ahead of Marvel’s 2025 superhero projects – Thunderbolts, and even Fantastic Four: First steps. Others include long-awaited entries in franchises like 28 Days Later,  Jurassic World: Rebirth, and Mission Impossible – The Final Reckoning. Then there are the live-action adaptions of How to Train Your Dragon, Snow White, and Minecraft. 

“IMDb fans are counting down the days until James Gunn’s Superman kicks off the first of five planned films in his “Gods and Monsters” arc as part of the DC Universe reboot. The first teaser gave us a taste of an already superhero-filled world with glimpses of Hawkgirl, Mister Terrific, Green Lantern, and the hero we’re most excited for, Krypto the (goodest boy) Superdog. Shifting a bit from Snyder’s darker take on the Kryptonian, Gunn is promising “a Superman who is about kindness, love and compassion…the best of humanity, even though he is an alien from outer space,” IMDB writes. 

‘Superman‘ is set for release on 11th July 2025.
