David Corenswet Said to Make Superman ‘Bright and Optimistic’ After Henry Cavill’s Run Because Superheroes ‘Become Boring If You Just Keep Doing the Same Thing’


David Corenswet said he wanted a brighter and more optimistic Superman after Henry Cavill's run, but it was never shade against the SnyderVerse.

Comments the actor made to Entertainment Weekly in 2019 resurfaced online at the time as Corenswet spoke about how the role of Superman was his dream gig, although not the dark and gritty version that Snyder and Cavill brought to the big screen. Gunn revealed on X shortly after taking over DC Studios that he had touched base with Snyder and there were no hard feelings between them. In an interview with Fandango last month, Gunn even revealed that he consulted with Snyder when it came to designing the new Superman suit and whether or not to add the red trunks.
