Superman: Legacy Casts Superman & Lois
The ComicBook Nation crew agreed that David Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan are – if nothing else – solid choices for the new Superman and Lois Lane for DC Studios. That said, there were some concerns about the casting that got debated:
- We hope Rachel Brosnahan was chosen for more than her snappy persona on The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel and would portray a version of Lois who has complexity and range.
- We hope David Corenswet similarly gets to show off a range of personality and emotions. While not hugely famous yet, what we’ve seen of him in projects like Ryan Murphy’s Hollywood and Ty West’s Pearl has been impressive.
- We hope James Gunn takes on the challenge of exploring Clark and Lois’s relationship from a new angle: when they are already together and Lois knows full well that Clark is Kal-El/Superman.
