One of the biggest questions online is: who is the masked villain “Ultraman” seen beating up Superman in the trailer for James Gunn’s upcoming film *Superman* (formerly *Superman: Legacy*), releasing on July 11, 2025? All trailers show this mysterious figure overpowering Superman, but his identity remains unknown. One theory suggests Ultraman is a clone of Superman, created by Lex Luthor. He has the same strength but is morally corrupted — a violent, twisted version built only for destruction. According to this theory, David Corenswet plays both roles. The trailers showing Ultraman masked and brutal add fuel to this belief. The truth will finally be revealed when the film hits theaters.
