The trailer features a blend of AI-generated archival clips from all the classic Superman films. To make it seem more real, the creators included visuals of Will dressed in a Superman suit and used AI technology to tweak voice snippets that sound like Will Smith. It’s important to note that this trailer is entirely a fan creation and is not affiliated with any official production.
Could Will Smith’s Superman release in 2025?
No, Will Smith’s Superman is not releasing in 2025. There are no credible sources that confirm that he will be starring in any Superman-related projects.
