DC Studios, James Gunn, and Warner Bros. have officially revealed David Corenswet’s Superman costume, marking the kickoff of the DCU film series.
In the image, it’s evident that Clark is gearing up to soar over Metropolis, with the iconic red trunks making a striking appearance. This fresh iteration of the Man of Steel promises to uphold the superhero’s timeless legacy.
The unveiling of the Superman suit coincides with the transition from studio sets to real-world locations in Macon, Georgia, and later Cleveland, Ohio, signifying an exciting phase in production.
Upon first glance, the costume appears to draw inspiration from the 2011 DC Comics’ New 52 reboot, albeit with subtle modifications.
As previously mentioned, Superman, initially titled Superman: Legacy, is presently in production at a secluded soundstage in Atlanta, ensuring tight security and keeping leaks at bay, a departure from the norm for major comic book blockbusters.
Apart from filming in Macon, Georgia, the production team is gearing up to venture into Ohio, possibly scouting locations suitable for the iconic Hall of Justice scene, adding another layer of excitement to the production journey.
It seems Gun will be pulling double-duty over the next few months, as he’ll also be helming a few episodes of Peacemaker season 2, which is also filming at Trillith.
With cameras set to film out in the open soon, the hope among the fandom is that Gunn and DC Studios will soon reveal the first, official full look at Corenswet’s Man of Steel costume.
It was hoped that the reveal would come on the anniversary of the release of Action Comics #1 but while Gunn did share a social media post with Corsenwet and Rachel Brosnahan, the suit was not revealed.
The James Gunn-directed (and written) film stars David Corenswet as Kal-El/Clark Kent, Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner/Green Lantern, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific.
Rounding out the cast are Sean Gunn as Maxwell Lord, María Gabriela de Faría as Angela Spica/The Engineer, Terence Rosemore as Otis, Wendell Pierce as Perry White, Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher, and Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho.
Additionally, Nicholas Hoult has been confirmed by Gunn to portray Lex Luthor in the film. Milly Alcock was also recently cast as Supergirl and is also expected (but unconfirmed) to appear in Legacy, as well.
More recently Pruitt Taylor Vince was cast as Jonathan ‘Pa’ Kent, while Neva Howell signed on to play Martha ‘Ma’ Kent.
Currently set for release on July 11, 2025, Superman: Legacy Superman is the first film in Gunn’s reboot of the DCEU.
