James Gunn recently announced that he will officially be directing Superman: Legacy after previously revealing that he’s penning the script. Fans have been wondering who will don the red and blue suit, and some names that have been coming up a lot are Jacob Elordi (Euphoria), Wolfgang Novogratz (Feel the Beat), and even David Corenswet (Pearl). Corenswet has been a name that has been coming up for years since it was revealed that Henry Cavill was done with the role the first time, and he still remains a favorite in the fan community. Now, an artist on Instagram that goes by the handle of @Youssef_defenshi has created a new design that shows off how Corenswet could look as the Man of Steel for what we assume can be Gunn’s Superman: Legacy. In the fan art, the actor gets a suit that is similar to Superman’s look in The New 52. While Gunn hasn’t yet begun casting his Man of Steel, Corenswet could be a really good choice.
You can check out the fan art below.

Gunn and Safran began their jobs as Co-CEO’s of DC Studios last year and it’s safe to say that the future of DC is looking bright. When the duo was announced by the new Warner Bros. Discovery boss, they released a statement on their excitement for the job.
“We’re honored to be the stewards of these DC characters we’ve loved since we were children,” Gunn and Safran added in a joint statement. “We look forward to collaborating with the most talented writers, directors, and actors in the world to create an integrated, multilayered universe that still allows for the individual expression of the artists involved.
