Speaking with GQ, Corenswet says he was very committed to trying to make James Gunn’s vision for Superman come true. To that end, it seems the actor was constantly asking questions in order to better understand what Gunn was doing. However, it would sometimes drive the director crazy. Corenswet said…

David Corenswet shares the key to balancing being ‘Superman’ by day and going into full dad mode by night: his wife, Julia Best Warner! 'Superman' flies into theaters on July 11.

Nicholas Hoult co-stars as criminal mastermind Lex Luthor, who twists public opinion to turn the world against the superhero, while pitting him against metahuman adversaries.

During the London premiere of James Gunn’s “Superman,” star David Corenswet revealed that Henry Cavill and Tyler Hoechlin, who both played the DC superhero before, refused to give him influential advice before he stepped into the role.

Hoult took the dig in stride, commenting a series of twin emojis on Corenswet’s post. He also shared the photos on his Instagram Story — to the tune of Rosemary Clooney’s “Sisters” — and added several laughing emojis and a skull.

As teens, Julia and David both attended a Pennsylvania summer theater program called Upper Darby Summer Stage (which, fun fact, was also attended by Tina Fey!). It was there that they crossed paths for the first time, as David told People during his June cover story interview).

The film, directed by DC Studios co-CEO James Gunn, kicks off the new DC Universe with the superhero. Superman sees David Corenswet ( Twisters, Pearl) as the title character and as Clark Kent, a reporter for The Daily Planet. The role has previously been played by Christopher Reeve, Henry Cavill, Brandon Routh and Tyler Hoechlin, among others.

James Gunn’s “Superman” — starring David Corenswet as the Man of Steel — surprised even the most worn-out critics with its “charm.”
