Title: Superman's Farewell to Alan Tudyk's Robot Character Touched Hearts; Surprisingly, Not Originally Planned by James Gunn
In the blockbuster movie Superman, released in 2025, Alan Tudyk's character, Four, took on a new identity by the film's end – Gary. This name change was not part of the original script, but rather an ad-libbed idea by Tudyk himself.
Throughout most of the movie, Four was known simply as Four, leading the automatons that followed. However, Tudyk felt that his character, being the perfected model in a series of robots built by Superman, deserved a personal name instead of just a number.
Initially, James Gunn, the director of Superman, was hesitant about the name change. But after discussions with David Corenswet and Nathan Fillion, who played significant roles in the film, Gunn agreed to shoot the scene with the new name "Gary."
Tudyk's idea was well-received, as it added a unique touch to his character. In an interview with The Direct, Tudyk explained that it was fitting for Gary to have a personal name, especially considering his role in the story.
As for the future of Gary, there are plans for more appearances of the character in the DC Universe. He may make an appearance in a Superman sequel, Supergirl, or another upcoming DC movie.
Superman is currently playing in theaters, and the digital release will be available starting August 15. The Ultra-HD Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and DVD release of Superman are scheduled for September 23. Unfortunately, no announcement has been made about when Superman will be available for streaming with an HBO Max subscription.
For fans of Alan Tudyk and the DC Universe, Gary is a character to watch in the upcoming Superman saga. His ad-libbed name change has added a personal touch to his character, making him stand out among the other robots in the movie.
Daily Blend readers are eagerly awaiting news about Gary, the unique character played by Alan Tudyk in the latest DC Universe movie, Superman. In movies-and-tv discussions, the entertainment community is praising Tudyk for ad-libbing Gary's name change in the film, adding a touch of personal entertainment to an otherwise action-packed superhero story.
