Before you go in Supermanred boots and dawn of “s” over the chest, Franchise’s latest star, David CorenswetGot a super blessing – twice over – from two of the DC Comics character’s previous portrait.
“I had the pleasure of exchanging letters with two previous supermans – Henry Cavill and Tyler Hoechlin“Corswet told the heart At the premiere “Superman” London on July 3. “They were very encouraging, and we had a wonderful exchange, and I’m happy to meet them one day. It will be good when we can all come in a room together.”
The actors not only supported, but they also offered Corenswet advice on how to play Superman and his glass-clad deadly equivalent Clark Kent.
“They really only conveyed an encouragement and a sense of, you know, have fun with it, which I think is Superman’s way to do it too,” he said.
Corenswet was not the only artist who was considered to take on Superman in the new film. Nicholas Hoult, who ended up as the film’s Lex Luthor, also auditioned for the role. Author/director James Gunn declared “Jakes takes” (via variety) Why Hoult was thrown as the film’s antagonist instead.
“A lot of time casting is to find the right person for the right role,” Gunn said. “Most people (audition) did not do anything wrong, they just didn’t fit how I imagined this superman would be. Nicholas Hoult auditioned. He is a good actor. Some may say he is better than David in some ways, but he just didn’t fit the role. That’s why he didn’t.”
Gunn also said that Hoult in the end did not match so well with the filmmaker’s choice for Lois Lane, Rachel Brosnahan.
“One of the things we were doing was mixing and matching lois and clark actors When we were auditioning them. I Wanted to make Sure we had that chemistry right. The truth is nicholas, who is a more controlled agency Were Opposites. David Had Better Chemistry with Rachel because she’s a very controlled actor and david is a little bit more loose. That creates a different dynamism on screen, “said Gunn.
