(Warner Bros., theaters): James Gunn is ushering in a new era of Superman, with a fresh face in David Corenswet and the promise that he’s a different Superman than what audiences have seen before. Gunn told the AP that this is “a Superman that’s both more grounded in his own personality and his relationship, which is much more complex than has been in the past. And then also the big magic world of Superman being in the world of the DCU with flying dogs and robots and giant monsters.” There’s romance with Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane, and a “pretty scary” Lex Luthor in Nicholas Hoult. “He’s actually going to kill (Superman),” Gunn said. “And that’s cool to see.”
O’Ward also got the Indiana Dairy Association to bring a— a rookie tradition at the Indy 500 that he missed because his first appearance was during the pandemic.
“We need more guys like Pato in NASCAR,” said Larson, his Arrow McLaren teammate at Indy.Alex Palou has won four of the first five IndyCar races this season but has flown under the radar this month. The Spaniard will start sixth. His best finish is second and he’s been inside the top nine the last four years.Palou is the two-time reigning IndyCar champion and has three titles in the last four years. He admitted if he never wins the Indy 500, his career would not be complete — and the 14-race winner has yet to earn a victory on an oval.
“In that race, you don’t think about the championship at all,” Palou said. “A third place is not good enough. A second place is not good enough. It’s only first that counts.”The NASCAR star is attempting to complete the Indianapolis 500 and the Coca-Cola 600 in North Carolina on Sunday, an accomplishment that he fell short of last year because of rain.
A long delay in Indianapolis made Larson late to Charlotte Motor Speedway, and the race had not only started by the time he arrived but been stopped by rain. He didn’t turn a single lap of the NASCAR leg.
He’s not shown the same speed at Indy as he did a year ago, and being teammates with O’Ward has dulled some of the spotlight on him. Larson will make the NASCAR race his priority.The Nasdaq is up 1,081.17, or 6%.
