What We Know About Superman: Legacy

The fan art enhances Corenswet's appearance by dressing him in a vibrant and iconic Superman costume. Additionally, his adoption of the Man of Tomorrow's trademark hair curl perfectly complements his portrayal as the new Superman in the DCU. If Corenswet's portrayal in Superman: Legacy comes close to his impressive depiction in the fan art, fans can anticipate a remarkable experience that celebrates the beloved superhero.

In addition to Corenswet's casting as Clark Kent, Superman: Legacy has an exciting lineup of new additions to the cast.

Alongside them, an ensemble of other DCU heroes will be featured, including Nathan Fillion as the Green Lantern Guy Gardner, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, and Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho.

Jimmy Olsen and Lex Luthor are waiting to be cast once the SAG-AFTRA strike concludes. Due to the actor's strike and the recent end of the Writers Guild of America strike, filming for Superman: Legacy had to be postponed. Instead of the planned start in January, the DC Universe movie will now begin production in Spring 2024.

While Gunn is keeping the main story of Superman: Legacy under wraps, some aspects have been revealed by the director and various reports. Corenswet's Clark Kent will receive assistance from Lois and Jimmy when he joins the Daily Planet. Unlike an origin story, Superman: Legacy portrays Clark as having already been Superman for a while. The movie aims to create a well-established DCU, with the focus remaining on Superman and Lois despite the introduction of other heroes. Further details about Superman: Legacy will be disclosed after the conclusion of the SAG-AFTRA strike.
