James Gunn has announced a wrap on the production of the upcoming movie 'Superman: Legacy'.

James Gunn's heartwarming note for fans

“And that’s a wrap,” Gunn announced on Instagram. “God bless our cast and crew whose commitment, creativity, and hard work have brought this project to life.” Reflecting on the emotional turmoil of creating the film, he said, “I set out to make a movie about a good man in a world that isn’t always so much. And the goodness and kindness and love I’ve encountered on a daily basis on the set has inspired me and thrust me forward when I felt too spent to move on my own. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart. It has been an honor."

Highlighting the significance of the journey rather than just the destination, he added, “The destination has been Superman, but the journey has been the toil and the laughter and the emotions and ideas and magic we’ve shared together on set – and for that I am forever grateful."
