David Corenswet has been dubbed the front-runner for the role of Superman: Legacy by James Gunn.
With the success of James Gunn’s Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 3
, the cast for Gunn’s upcoming Superman Legacy appears to be taking shape. According to a bombshell report in THR, David Corenswet, who memorably starred opposite Mia Goth in Pearl, seems to be the frontrunner to play Clark Kent/ Superman. The square-jawed actor, who is 29 years old, looks the part. In fact, many people have said that he looks like Henry Cavill. Many assumed Jacob Eloridi from Euphoria had the role in the bag, but according to the article, the actor didn’t actively pursue the part. In addition to Pearl, Corenswet also starred in Ryan Murphy’s Netflix series Hollywood. The article claims that Rachel Brosnahan, star of The Fabulous Mrs. Maisel, gave an “outstanding performance” as Lois Lane. However, they also suggest she is a bit too old at 32. It’s absurd because she is only three years older than Corenswet. If she really did a great reading, then they should definitely cast her. Bridgerton star Phoebe Dynevor (who’s about to blow people away in the Sundance fave
Fair Play) and Emma Mackey are also listed as frontrunners to play Lane.Notably, the article also reveals that. Nicholas Hoult, who has been a WB favourite since Fury road, is almost certain to play Lex Luthor. He was one the frontrunners for The Batman
, and he looks great with a shaved hair. This casting seems perfect. Does David Corenswet make a good Superman, or not? Comment below!
