Henry Braham Appointed as Cinematographer for ‘Superman: Legacy’

Following the conclusion of the DCEU with the release of ‘Aquaman: The Lost Kingdom,’ James Gunn has been diligently preparing for the production of ‘Superman: Legacy,’ an upcoming Superman movie that both Gunn and Safran view as the true starting point of the DCU, despite ‘Creature Commandos’ being released earlier.

Known for his active presence on social media, Gunn frequently engages with fans, addressing questions, dispelling rumors, and offering valuable insights into the anticipated final product. Fans are particularly eager about the cast members, with Gunn stating that over 90% of the cast is already confirmed. Another aspect generating excitement is the selection of technical personnel poised to elevate ‘Superman: Legacy’ into the cinematic masterpiece envisioned by Gunn.

Responding to inquiries on Threads about potential cinematographers for the project, Gunn enthusiastically revealed that Henry Braham, a cinematographer he has previously collaborated with, is set to take on the role.

Henry Braham, a distinguished British cinematographer, is renowned for his contributions to notable films such as ‘Nanny McPhee,’ ‘The Legend of Tarzan,’ ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2,’ ‘The Suicide Squad,’ ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3,’ and ‘The Flash.’ Commencing his cinematographic journey in 1989 with the British band The KLF, he played a key role in their 1991 road movie, ‘The White Room.’ Braham has consistently collaborated with directors Kirk Jones and James Gunn, lending his expertise to films like ‘Waking Ned Divine,’ ‘Everybody’s Fine,’ and ‘The Golden Compass.’ Beyond cinematography, he has directed commercials and showcased his lighting design skills in exhibitions. A proud member of the British Society of Cinematographers, Henry Braham is also a co-founder of the Good Hemp Food brand alongside Glynis Murray.

Clearly, the film is under the guidance of an accomplished expert with a proven track record in handling superhero movies. Have any thoughts to contribute? Feel free to share in the comments section below!
