The latest round of images, courtesy of Cleveland.com, shows The last of us Season 2 star Isabela Merced dressed up as the winged superhero alongside Firefly Gardner, played by alum Nathan Fillion, is one of numerous DC characters to take up the Green Lantern mantle. The pair are seen filming a scene alongside Man of Steel (David Corenswet) and Mr. Terrific (Edi Gathegi), and the quartet are greeted by a small but enthusiastic group of Metropolis citizens after they presumably save the day in some way.

This new batch of secretly taken photos came a week after two other big leaks surfaced from the DC Cinematic Universe (DCU) film’s outdoor set in Ohio. The first gave fans a better look at the Superman suit and revealed the first images of Gathegi’s Mr. Terrific, while the second showed Mr. Terrific seemingly meeting up with the Man of Steel’s most loyal friend, Krypto the Superdog.
Gunn, who has dual duties as the film's head writer and director, recently admitted on Threads that he “fully expected” such leaks to emerge from the DCU Chapter One movie's latest filming location. Fortunately, SupermanThe biggest and/or most shocking plot threads from 's will not be revealed before release, and Gunn also wrote in Threads: “I would never film a big spoiler out in the open in the middle of the city.”
What is the Justice League International? And why is it seemingly associated with DC villain Maxwell Lord?
Another look at HAWGIRL and GUY GARDNER in Superman! from r/DCULeaks
There is no confirmation that Justice League International, one of many iterations of the Justice League superteam in DC comics, will be part of the 2025 series. Superman However, with Hawkgirl, Guy Gardner, and Superman all being part of this superpowered group in the comic book giant's literary works, fans are putting two and two together and theorizing that we'll see a variation of this team in the Man of Steel's next cinematic adventure.
If that's true, it looks like the international lineup of the DCU's Justice League will consist of Hawkgirl, Gardner, Mr. Terrific, and Metamorpho, the latter another hero who has the ability to alter his body on a molecular level. He will be played by BarryThat's Anthony Carrigan, who, while it's hard to tell if it's the actor himself, appears to be the person wearing a full-body blue spandex suit in the latest leak.
The Justice League International fan theory also seems to have merit, considering the similarity between Hawkgirl, Gardner, and Mr. Terrific's costumes. The trio's supersuits are primarily black and white ensembles, and have the same sleek V-shaped design around the neck and shoulder area. To me, it's just too much of a coincidence if they all act like individual heroes until Superman shows up.
Comment from r/DCULeaks
Even more intriguing is the fact that they could be employed by a particular DC villain: Maxwell Lord, who will be played by Gunn's brother and frequent collaborator Sean Gunn (Guardians of the Galaxy, The Suicide Squad) and has a minor role in 2025. Superman It’s really hard to tell, but thanks to some eagle-eyed fans on the DCU Leaks sub-Reddit, zooming in on a specific image of Gardner (Fillion) reveals a giant logo etched into the white t-shirt he’s wearing. Normally, that wouldn’t be anything to write home about, but when you compare that emblem to the logo for Lord’s in-universe company, LordTech, which can be seen in this image posted to the DCU Leaks sub-Reddit, they’re identical in design.
It seems, then, that Lord created and is funding the DCU's corporately sponsored Justice League International in much the same way that Vought International does in BoysIn fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Hawkgirl and company became known as the Justice Lords, a parallel universe superteam that exists in DC comics, in Gunn and Safran's rebooted comic book world. If I and my fellow DC aficionados are on the right track, this would certainly tie into the rumors that Corenswet's Superman is the catalyst behind the revitalization of the world's band of jaded superheroes; the aforementioned individuals are likely among that contingent. We'll see if we're right when we hear about it. Superman It will hit theaters in July 2025.
