A Superman reboot when he and Lois become public domain
In 2024, it was revealed that Batman and Superman will enter the public domain in 2034 and 2035. Meaning anybody and anyone could use the characters without copyright. However, there's some restrictions of this. You're only allowed to use Golden Age Batman and Superman from their first appearances, characters like Lois Lane, Commissioner Gordon, and Julie Madison are allowed but nobody else in the franchise are allowed. You could use Superman's origins, but you can't call it "Krypton," or use the Kents' first names, Superman can't fly and can't be weakened by Kryptonite since those came later. And you can't market your projects with "Batman" or "Superman" in the title to avoid confusion from consumers to think it's official DC projects. So you gotta be original and creative with these stories and be careful. And I figured I should be prepared with fun fancastings for Superman and Lois Lane with young actors who will grow to be in their 30s 9 head later.
