Gunn recently said of the auditioning process: “Now that we’ve kind of done a lot of auditions, we’re narrowing it down. We’re not done yet. By the way — there’s a lot of stories out there about who we’re auditioning and all these screen tests. I’m just saying it’s not all true, that’s for sure. There’s things in there that are completely false, but I can’t go out there and say ‘Oh this isn’t true, and this isn’t true’ without going through everything.”
We’ve heard that David Corenswet (Pearl, Hollywood and The Politician) is the top choice for Superman followed by Jacob Elordi (The Kissing Booth), and Andrew Richardson (Daughter of the Bride) who are also up for the role.
Some of the other rumors include Rachel Brosnahan (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Samara Weaving (Ready or Not), Phoebe Dynevor (Bridgerton), and Emma Mackey (Sex Education) up for the role of Lois Lane. Nicholas Hoult (Renfeild) is also in the running, possibly as Lex Luthor.
The film will tell the story of “Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.”
Superman: Legacy will launch the movie part of DC Studios’ Gods and Monsters: Part 1. The movie is set to be released on July 11, 2025.
