Via Mr. Man: Happy birthday to the new Superman, David Corenswet, who turned the big 3-0 this month! Last month David Corenswet, Nicholas Hoult and Tom Brittney all screen-tested to be the next Superman.
James Gunn, who is taking the reins of the DC Universe and will be directing the upcoming Superman movie, Superman: Legacy, auditioned all three men in full costume (spandex and all), and after what we're sure was a nail-biter, went with up and coming hottie David Corenswet.
Meanwhile Rachel Brosnahan will be the new Lois Lane. See David’s nudity here This Philadelphia-born David stands at an imposing 6' 4" tall and with his chiseled jawline, piercing blue eyes, and thick dark locks, embodies Superman as he was depicted in the original comics.
We couldn't be any happier for David and can't wait to see him in action as Superman! With all of that said... There's something that we like more than a man in uniform.
