Rumors: Corenswet Filmed Fortress of Solitude Scenes in Norway for Gunn’s ‘Superman’
As the new year begins, there’s anticipation for the launch of a new cinematic universe centered around DC characters, known as DCU. While the previous DCEU concluded with the relatively successful ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom,’ most of its movies didn’t perform well. This led to Gunn and Safran being brought in to reboot DCU, with ‘Superman’ being a highly anticipated project, despite ‘Creature Commandos’ releasing first.
After much speculation, Gunn happily announced that ‘Superman’ began filming on February 29th, coinciding with Superman’s birthday. Although filming started at Trilith Studios in Atlanta, there’s a buzz about another undisclosed location leaked by Daniel Richtman. Richtman suggests that Corenswet filmed scenes in Norway, possibly for the Fortress of Solitude.
The Fortress of Solitude serves as Superman’s base and a gathering spot for other superheroes. Typically located at one of Earth’s poles, it houses Kryptonian technology and equipment. Norway aligns with this tradition, given its Arctic-like conditions. Previous rumors of Gunn scouting locations in Norway make Richtman’s claim credible.
Filming has already commenced in Atlanta, with Henry Braham returning as cinematographer and plans to shoot for IMAX. A significant portion of filming, lasting 37 days, is slated for Ohio from April to August, with additional filming in Macon, Georgia, expected to span four months. Shooting is anticipated to wrap up in July, aiming for a release date of July 11, 2025.
