According to a new report from Deadline, James Gunn has found his Clark Kent and Lois Lane to lead Superman: Legacy, who will takeover the leading roles from the DCEU’s Henry Cavill and Amy Adams.

After a long audition process that culminated in screen tests involving six actors, the rebooted DCU has found its Superman in David Corenswet – a popular fan cast for the role due to his classic Clark Kent appearance.

Corenswet filmography includes the slasher-horror movie Pearl and Netflix comedy-drama The Politician, with his next role ahead of Superman: Legacy coming with the 2024 disaster epic Twister.

The role of Lois Lane has seemingly gone to Emmy-winning actress Rachel Brosnahan, best known for her five-season run in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, with her reportedly having given the best audition of the bunch.
