James Gunn recalled the event when he posted a meme song on his social media accounts in September 2024. It was a Hindi song featuring Govinda’s iconic dance style. The song was from the film Dariya Dil (1988), where Govinda appeared as Superman and co-star Kimi Katkar as Spider-Man.

James Gunn mentioned, recalling the meme, “I love that! That’s the best.”  The host informed the director that the actor was none other than “our legend Govinda.”

David Corenswet added on saying, “Anybody who’s excited about Superman is gonna really love this movie. James loves the character, knows the character very well. The Superman robots, the Kaiju, Krypto…” Rachel Brosnahan shared, “Big adventure, an epic love story, all the things you hope from a Superman film.” David Corenswet concluded by saying, “So India. Look up, July 11.”
