Superman Spoiler Review, New Batman Casting & Why Fantastic Four Is Crucial
Episode 20
Friday, 18 July, 2025

Henry Calvert joins me on The Movie Dweeb Podcast for a full-on deep dive into superhero chaos, starting with a spoiler-packed review of Superman. We break down the biggest twists, surprises, and what James Gunn’s vision means for the future of the DC Universe.Then it’s onto the next Caped Crusader: who should take on the mantle of Batman? We share our dream casting choices and debate who could bring something bold and new to the role in DC’s next chapter.We also dig into Marvel’s Fantastic Four: First Steps, and why it might secretly be the most important project in shaping the next era of the MCU, more than Doomsday or Secret Wars.And just when you think we couldn’t go more unhinged, Henry pitches a Muppets remake of The Italian Job, followed by a Fleetwood Mac biopic… also starring The Muppets. Honestly? It might be genius.Plus, I share my recent chats with Pom Klementieff and Vanessa Kirby, including Pom revealing who she’d love to play in James Gunn’s new-look DCU.
