While they're shooting in Cleveland right now -- the film is reportedly filming some of its scenes in Atlanta ... which is known for its tax incentives for productions, and is a go-to city for filming these days. Either way, they're out there and cameras are rolling.

This update comes over a month after Gunn shared the first photo of David in the iconic Superman suit where he looked a little worse for wear (maybe after a fight scene). Alongside the upload, the filmmaker confirmed the film's release date -- which is July '25.
