When head of DC Studios James Gunn announced that David Corenswet had been selected to play Superman, launching a new cinematic universe in a bid to compete with Marvel, it seemed as though the actor had been plucked from obscurity. Maybe even harvested on a farm where they grow movie stars who look perfectly suited to play superheroes, like Chris Evans as Captain America and Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark before him -- who knows? But although Corenswet was hardly a household name at the time, he had a respectable number of credits on his resume, proving that he had both the talent and the screen presence to do justice to the character.

From serious HBO dramas and unnerving horror films to Ryan Murphy Netflix series and warm-hearted romantic comedies, Corenswet has demonstrated an impressive range for someone who...

As we reach towards the end of the summer moviegoing season, it is clear that DC Studios' first cinematic entry in the new Dcu, "Superman," is an absolute home run for the franchise. The film's critical and commercial success gives DC its first undisputed victory over Marvel Studios in 17 years, and while James Gunn's creative vision has been receiving much of the credit for its success amidst turbulent waters for the comic book movie genre after its domination during the 2010s, much of that credit should also go to the film's breakthrough lead actor, David Corenswet.

David Corenswet, 32, is a Juilliard-trained actor, like the legendary Christopher Reeve. Some of his most notable early works include the television shows "The Politician," "Hollywood," and "We Own This City." As for film credits, his two most prominent films before suiting up as the Dcu's Man of Steel were "Pearl" and "Twisters." Years...

Jane Morgan, the elegant American singer who dazzled audiences in Paris nightclubs, on just about every TV variety show of her era and at the Oscars and had a hit record with the lovely standard “Fascination,” has died. She was 101.

Morgan was in hospice care and died Monday in her sleep of natural causes in Naples, Florida, her family announced.

A classy performer known for her silky smooth phrasing, Morgan moved from New York to France in the late 1940s to build her career before returning the U.S. and becoming a very popular singer through the mid-1960s.

She recorded about 40 albums around the world and sang in five languages, making her a true international star.

A fun piece of trivia about actor David Corenswet: his maternal grandfather is Edward Packard, the creator of the popular "Choose Your Own Adventure" books.

Corenswet was recently thrust into the public eye when he was cast as Clark Kent in James Gunn's new superhero flick "Superman." The 32-year-old actor, however, has been acting since he was a child, having appeared in various stage productions as early as age nine. He acted throughout his teen years and eventually attended Juilliard, where he graduated with a Bfa. Corenswet also dabbled in writing and directing, having helmed and starred in a short film called "Following Chase" in 2011, and co-wrote and produced the online comedy show "Moe & Jerryweather" in 2014. Two years later, he starred in an unpurchased pilot for a TV series called "The Tap," directed by Rob Reiner. He...

When Superman will go to theatres next June, Amy Adams will have a mixed bag of emotions.

Most of the world might know David Corenswet as the man who stole Henry Cavill’s DC thunder. However, with the actor beefing up for his role in Superman: Legacy, he proved to be a rather perfect choice for the iconic character. The 31-year-old may have had a score to settle with the fans after they voiced their concerns about his physique. But it looks like the young star had more reasons to go out of his way and bulk up.

In fact, long before Corenswet had been thrown into the storm that was Cavill’s booting from the Man of Steel role, he had already had a rather harsh past experience that had ended up sticking with him through the years.

After being cast as James Gunn...

As the first feature film in James Gunn and Peter Safran's new DC Universe, Superman boasts an impressive cast. After Gunn and Safran were hired as co-CEOs of DC Studios in November 2022, the pair stressed how important Superman would be to the future of the Dcu. While it was initially thought that Henry Cavill would reprise the role he played since 2013's Man of Steel, the actor confirmed he wouldn't be returning, paving the way for a new actor to take on the iconic role. Gunn announced Superman alongside the rest of the Dcu's Chapter 1 in January 2023, and work started on finding the perfect cast.

Set to release on July 11, 2025, Superman is set to tell the story of "Superman's journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing." While teasing a more down-to-Earth storyline for the Dcu's Superman reboot, the film's official synopsis also suggests Gunn will deliver...

Since it was announced that David Corenswet would be playing the role of Superman, fans can’t help but be excited. While they are trying to hold onto the past with Henry Cavill’s version, they cannot help but accept that things are beginning to change, and who better to lead it than someone as talented as Corenswet?

However, before it was announced that he got the role, two other actors were running for the role; Tom Brittney and Nicholas Hoult. Although DC and James Gunn made an excellent decision when they decided to go for Corenswet, there is no denying that the days leading up to the reveal were quite straining for both the fans and those involved.

On this special occasion of David Corenswet’s birthday, it’s intriguing to reflect on his early ventures that paved the way for his current success as a prominent figure in Hollywood.

Henry Cavill can continue to insist that he’s still the Man of Steel all he wants, but it seems like Warner Bros. is ready to move on. The studio is currently compiling a list of actors they want to take over the role and according to our sources – the same ones who said J.J. Abrams had been offered a Green Lantern and/or Superman movie months ago, which Variety confirmed the other day – one of the names being discussed is David Corenswet.

The 26-year-old has risen to fame recently due to his performance in Netflix’s The Politician. He’s also appeared in House of Cards, Elementary, Instinct and Affairs of State. Portraying Clark Kent on the big screen would inevitably launch the young actor into stardom though, if Warner Bros. does decide to go with him instead of the other options.

Despite being ranked as the best Superman of all-time by many,...
