Gunn prioritizes giving VFX artists time and respect to do their jobs properly.
The Superman movie wrapped a year before release, with VFX artists working on shots for months prior for top-notch results.
Gunn states Supergirl will be handled the same way.

James Gunn reveals how the VFX process will be tackled for the DC Universe films Superman and Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.
As Gunn's Superman movie is currently in post-production, a fan asked on Threads about the ongoing struggle for VFX workers in Hollywood when it comes to being overworked and underpaid, which has been an ongoing topic in the world of superhero films, too. Gunn addressed his past work and what that will mean for Superman and Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow when it comes to VFX, sharing the following:

If you do some research you’ll see my films have always taken a different approach and I’ve always given my VFX artist-collaborators time to do their jobs properly, and the respect they deserve. And the quality of the VFX in those films is uniformly great because of it (and because my friends at Weta and Framestore and ILM and more are amazingly talented).

This is why we wrapped on Superman a year before release and why they’ve been hard at work on many shots for months before that. This is why we start heartily editing during the shoot. It’s why I prepare so vigorously and why we only shoot finished screenplays. And Supergirl, which I’m not directing, is being handled the same way. I can’t praise the VFX artists that help us create magic enough.
