Reportedly, the estate of Joseph Shuster, co-creator of Superman, has filed a copyright lawsuit against Warner Bros Discovery as the studio prepares to unveil its new Superman reboot. Shuster, alongside writer Jerry Siegel, created the legendary superhero, and now his family is seeking justice over alleged rights violations. The lawsuit claims that, under British law, the rights to Superman reverted to Shuster’s estate in 2017, 25 years after his death. The estate accuses Warner Bros of failing to pay royalties in regions like the UK, Canada and Australia. With the release of James Gunn’s Superman film set for July, this legal challenge could impact the movie’s international rollout. The Shuster estate is demanding compensation and a court order to stop Warner Bros from using Superman without proper licensing. Reportedly, Warner Bros has vowed to defend itself against the lawsuit vigorously.
