James Gunn has dropped a hint about when Man of Tomorrow’s trailer will arrive. The filmmaker recently engaged in social media banter with a fan regarding the highly anticipated preview.
On Friday, Gunn responded to a Threads post claiming that “The first trailer for ‘MAN OF TOMORROW’ is expected to be released in mid-December and attached to ‘DUNE: PART 3’.” The filmmaker debunked the report, saying, “Expected by whom???”
When a fan challenged him by answering, “James hating fans being hyped once again,” Gunn fired back, “More like James not wanting people to be disappointed when there’s no trailer in December.”
Gunn’s statement confirms that fans will have to wait a little longer for Man of Tomorrow’s trailer. The filmmaker has yet to share when the preview may arrive. However, it probably won’t arrive before 2027.
