New image arrives from producer James Gunn’s Brightburn

Last Updated on July 21, 2021

One of the upcoming horror movies that I'm looking forward to checking out as soon as I can is producer James Gunn (SLITHER, GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY) "What if Superman was a Horror Movie?" flick BRIGHTBURN. The movie is directed by David Yarovesky (THE HIVE) from a script by Mark Gunn and Brian Gunn, and the film stars Elizabeth Banks, David Denman, Jackson A. Dunn, Matt Jones, and Meredith Hagner. The movie will be unleashed onto a screen near you this May and today we have an all-new image to share.

Check it out below!

I don't know about you but I'm (pardon the pun) super excited about this new superhero horror movie. It seems like a direct parody of director Zack Snyder's MAN OF STEEL, but is that such a bad thing? Personally, I don't think so. I think it was only a matter of time before someone made a full-on superhero horror flick, and James Gunn (who helmed SUPER starring Rainn Wilson) is just the man to bring it to us. 

If you need more of a plot rundown that "What if Man of Steel was a Horror Movie?" then here's the current official synopsis:

A couple's prayers are seemingly answered when an object crash-lands on Earth, carrying a life-form that looks like a baby boy. As the years pass and the alien grows older, it starts to use its mysterious powers in sinister and destructive ways.

BRIGHTBURN is directed by David Yarovesky (THE HIVE) from a screenplay written by Mark Gunn and Brian Gunn. James Gunn and Kenneth Huang produce and the film stars Elizabeth Banks (SLITHER, THE HAPPYTIME MURDERS), David Denman (THE OFFICE), Jackson A. Dunn, Matt Jones, Steve Agee, Becky Wahlstrom, Stephen Blackehart, and Meredith Hagner. The movie will be unleashed onto a screen near you on May 24th, 2019.
