Superman star David Corenswet embodied the Man of Steel as he was seen on set in the iconic suit for filming of new movie, Supeman on Monday.

It was after his wartime service that he found success on TV in the Adventures of Superman, where he starred alongside Noel Neill as Lois Lane, before she was replaced by Phyllis Coates in the first season. The actor, now 45, starred alongside the likes of Allison Mack as Chloe Sullivan, Kristin Kreuk as Lana Lang and Michael Rosenbaum as Lex Luthor on Smallville. The actor, 29, who has never taken on a leading role in a major studio production before, will portray Clark Kent in the rebooted film series alongside Rachel Brosnahan, 32, as Lois Lane, replacing Amy Adams, reports Deadline.
