Episode notes

DC’s new cinematic universe is heating up with Superman, Supergirl, and Clayface hitting screens this year — but don’t expect a perfectly linear timeline. James Gunn’s “Man of Tomorrow” teases Brainiac’s return, while “Clayface” throws a curveball with its R-rating and off-kilter chronology. Warner Bros. and Gunn are aiming for clarity and simplicity, avoiding the tangled continuity of past universes — except for Matt Reeves’ “The Batman Part II,” which exists in its own world. Set for July 2027, “Man of Tomorrow” reunites David Corenswet as Superman and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, facing a cosmic threat that could redefine the DCU.
