If he’s invincible, what’s at stake?” He then cited writer Grant Morrison: “All the important stuff.



You can be the most well-adjusted, well-intentioned person, but people will still die. You can’t save everyone forever.”This comparison highlights Superman’s unique emotional burden, contrasting with the more overt struggles of Batman and Spider-Man.

Despite his powers, Corenswet noted that Superman faces existential challenges about mortality, responsibility, and limits, revealing a subtler form of turmoil beneath his invincible exterior.Corenswet’s working relationship with director James Gunn further illustrates his approach to the role. Gunn said, “David’s a pain in the a– because he asks a ton of questions about every single little moment.

” He added, “But I honestly think my favorite moments were when I would get irritated by his endless questions and indulge him anyway, and then I’d see him turn those questions into something magical in his performance.” Corenswet’s detailed inquiry during production reflects the same intensity that led Juilliard professors to call him “too intellectual” and “too analytical.”Gunn deliberately cast Corenswet for his humility and character, saying, “They treated everyone with kindness and respect.

.. He is Superman, even in his nerdiness.

” Gunn also noted that Corenswet listens to old jazz standards and called him “a simple man in complicated times.” This aligns with Gunn’s intention to present a lighter, brighter Superman, distancing from the darker tones of previous DC films.Warner Bros.

has positioned Corenswet’s Superman as the starting point for a new series of DC films. Its success will influence the future of the franchise. Corenswet acknowledged the role may define his career.
