New Superman Actor Dreamed of Playing More Optimistic Clark Kent
DC Studios has finally crowned its new Man of Steel, with David Corenswet set to play Clark Kent/Superman in 2025's highly anticipated Superman: Legacy. In what is perhaps a case of extreme intuition - or just good luck - a four-year-old interview with Corenswet reveals that donning Superman's cape has been one of the actor's biggest goals.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT During a 2019 interview with Entertainment Weekly about his Netflix series Hollywood, Corenswet said that he was aware of his physical resemblance to Henry Cavill, who played Superman in the DC Extended Universe. Corenswet admitted that he had been cognizant of the similarities for a while.
"My pie-in-the-sky ambition is definitely to play Superman. I would love to see somebody do an upbeat, throwback [take on Superman]. I love the Henry Cavill dark and gritty take, but I would love to see the next one be very bright and optimistic.
While most other casting for the film remains under wraps, it is known who Corenswet's co-star will be: Rachel Brosnahan was cast to portray Clark Kent's love interest and Daily Planet co-worker, Lois Lane, marking another high-profile role for the star of The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel. While Brosnahan is already well-established, Corenswet is not a household name, and will likely be able to provide a sense of anonymity to Superman that will help the character grow.
