David Corenswet is the new Superman actor. In latest pictures he looks more like predecessor Henry Cavill than ever before. Reason could be his hard training.
David Corenswet (House of Cards) is controversial among DC fans. Many are looking forward to a fresh start with the new Superman actor, others are mourning their favourite Henry Cavill. It doesn’t help that the superhero newcomer is looking more and more like his predecessor.

It is to be expected that Corenswet has been preparing extensively for his role since his casting announcement for the upcoming blockbuster Superman: Legacy several months ago. Whether the resemblance to Cavill is intentional, however, seems debatable.

In all likelihood, there will be many months of potential visual changes between now and the theatrical release of Superman: Legacy anyway. The DC blockbuster is scheduled for release on 10 July 2025.
