Superman fans, time to gather! The latest buzz regarding the upcoming Superman movie has hit the internet. Reportedly, this latest installment in Superman movies will be leaning into humor, and fans are having a field day reporting to the internet comment section with hilarious reactions.

Fans are already having differing opinions about this. Some netizens are excited about seeing James Gunn adding humor to the otherwise gritty tale of the DC superhero, while others are doubting this decision.

Overall, the reactions are a mix of disapproval, funny digs and signature online hilarity. A netizen imaginatively created a funny scenario in which, unlike Superman's serious tone, he and Batman are having a casual conversation.

The comment goes, (via @DoNotFearReaper/X)

"Batman - *knock knock*
Superman - Oh hi Bruce! :D"

If you are wondering what the buzz is all about, we have got you covered:

James Gunn movies are praised by fans for how they find a mix of grit and humor in them. Fans could not help but mention Guardians of the Galaxy and Suicide Squad. Amongst those who are doubtful of this decision are taking funny digs on it.

Some netizens said that instead of adding humor into the movie franchise, efforts should be made to write a good plot. As sarcastic comments are pouring in, some fans are also expressing what they would actually want to see in the upcoming movie this time.

A netizen posted his thoughts on the movie and said that it'd be weird to see Clark wear stunt gear and do kung fu. However, amidst all the jabs and sarcasms, excitement is high amongst Superman fans as the buzz of Gunn incorporating humor into the gritty superhero's tale hits the internet.

Imagine Superman taking a selfie with a dog filter on with other superheroes, or him attending a 9-to-5 job and rushing to the office with his cappuccino. Would be hilarious, right? Well, only time will tell how funny the movie will be.

Meanwhile, let us look at the fun comments:
