In a major reveal at CinemaCon 2024, Warner Bros. unveiled the first look at David Corenswet as Superman in the upcoming film of the same name, directed by James Gunn. The new image shows Corenswet sitting casually in a Metropolis skyscraper with an earth-shattering event taking place outside.

Corenswet's costume appears to be a blend of spandex and armor, featuring the iconic red and blue suit with the 'S' shield prominently displayed on his chest. The image also reveals that Corenswet will portray both Clark Kent and Superman in the film.

Gunn confirmed that Superman is indeed the primary protagonist of this new DC Universe installment, with Lex Luthor serving as the main villain. The ensemble cast includes Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Milly Alcock as Supergirl, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Sean Gunn as Maxwell Lord and Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher.

The first look at Corenswet's Superman costume comes after months of speculation and rumors about the actor taking on the iconic role. Fans were initially skeptical when news broke that Corenswet had been cast, but Gunn's confirmation and this official image have put those concerns to rest.

Superman is set to open in theaters on July 11, 2025.

    The author makes several statements that are factual and do not contain any fallacies. However, there is an instance of an appeal to authority when the author compares the unveiling of David Corenswet as Superman to the first look at a new James Bond. This comparison is meant to convey importance and prestige associated with these roles, but it does not provide any logical reasoning or evidence for why Corenswet's role as Superman should be significant beyond what is already stated in the article.
    • The unveiling of an actor in costume as Superman is a rare affair, akin to the first look at a new James Bond.
