In an old interview, David Corenswet, the new Superman actor, talked about wanting to play the character, not knowing that four years later he would be cast for the role.
During a conversation with Entertainment Weekly in 2019, Corenswet said, “Superman is an amazing character, a classic American character.” “What’s great about him is the complexity of the character, because he is invincible.”
“That’s the most interesting thing about him. What a difficult position to be in,” said the actor. “There’s a lot to explore, and dealing with the drama of someone who has no problems and can’t die.”
At the time, when asked about the resemblance to Henry Cavill, the last Superman, pointed out by social media, Corenswet agreed with the internet: “Actually, I noticed it before it was online, and my somewhat utopian ambition is definitely to play Superman.”
Four years after the interview, in 2023, he was announced to play Clark Kent in “Superman: Legacy“, which hits theaters next year.
