It’s been two years since Clark Kent last appeared on the big screen, but now DC fans have something new to celebrate. James Gunn’s Superman (2025) has officially hit cinemas, starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, and Nicholas Hoult as the villainous Lex Luthor. The film also introduces fan-favorite DC characters like Green Lantern, Mister Terrific, and Hawkgirl.
While it’s best experienced in theatres, many fans are already asking the big question: When can you watch Superman at home? The good news? The wait isn’t long at all.
Superman’s Surprisingly Quick VOD Release
Unlike most superhero blockbusters, Superman 2025 landed on digital platforms just 35 days after its theatrical debut. That’s unusually fast considering the movie has been a box office success, grossing over $595 million worldwide.

Director James Gunn explained the decision, citing scheduling with the upcoming Peacemaker series:
“I wanted everyone to be able to see Superman that wanted to, even those people who couldn’t get to a theater before Peacemaker,” Gunn told Variety.
This move follows a trend by Warner Bros., with other films like Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (32 days) and Minecraft Movie (39 days) also heading to digital quickly.
When Will Superman Release on DVD & Blu-ray?
For collectors, the wait is short:
- US Release Date: Tuesday, 23 September 2025 (Available for pre-order on Amazon US)
- UK Release Date: Expected a few days later, as Warner films typically arrive in the UK around 42 days after their digital release.
When Will Superman Be Available on Streaming?
Streaming timelines can vary, but based on previous Warner Bros. releases, here’s what we know:
- In the US: Superman will debut on HBO Max. If the studio follows recent patterns (Dune: Part Two, Beetlejuice Beetlejuice), Superman should arrive between 30 September and 31 October 2025.
- In the UK: Expect the film to stream on Sky Cinema and NOW TV, though exact dates may differ from the US launch.
