Superman Breaks Records, Murderbot Shocks Fans, Momoa Goes Epic
This week on Flick News, Izola breaks down the biggest entertainment stories making waves across film and TV. James Gunn’s Superman soared to $217 million globally and claimed the third-highest domestic opening of 2025, surpassing every solo Superman film before it. Reactions are mostly positive, with some Snyder loyalists pushing back and Dean Cain calling it “woke”—even though his Lois & Clark had similar themes. Izola weighs in with her thoughts ahead of seeing it herself and reflects on how box office expectations shift over time.
Also featured this week: Wake Up Dead Man heads to the BFI Gala, making Rian Johnson a returning favorite; Chief of War brings Jason Momoa back in a dramatic, battle-heavy historical epic set in Hawaii with a Hans Zimmer score; and Murderbot ends its Apple TV+ season with a bang—already renewed for Season 2. Izola praises its intelligent, dry-humored take on artificial life, led by Alexander Skarsgård. From streaming to blockbusters, this week’s Flick News has all your must-know stories.
