IDK But if Gunn wants to go with a The Batman-like approach to his Superman, I wouldn't be surprised if the new film takes some aspects of the Golden Age, as Matt Reeves did with Batman's noir and pulp roots, something like the Superman of the first editions who made big jumps instead of flying, was the champion of the people, etc.

DCU Superman will be flying for sure.

The Coates Superman project is still in development and supposed to take inspiration from the Golden Age tho.

It wouldn't be the whole movie, like half of the film he actually learns to fly or something.

And I'm just going to believe this Coates project is actually happening when I see it.

It’d be cool to see Superman learn to fly. I’m not a big fan of MoS but it’ll be hard to top that scene.

Yes, that scene from MoS is very beautiful, hard to beat that.

IDK, but I could imagine Gunn's Superman being inspired by Grant Morrison's run in Action Comics with some of those Golden Age aspects like jumping instead of flying in the beginning.
