Easily one of the most anticipated blockbusters of the year, Superman arrives with the enormous task of launching James Gunn’s bold new vision for the DC Universe. With David Corenswet donning the cape as Clark Kent and Rachel Brosnahan stepping into the role of Lois Lane, this latest superhero epic reimagines the Man of Steel for a new generation. We break down the entire cast (including Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luther, Nathan Fillion, and Isabela Merced) and explore what each actor brings to their updated take on these iconic comic characters. The film is packed with Gunn’s trademark emotional storytelling, bright colours, and flashy action. But the big question remains: does it all come together to deliver a truly super cinematic experience? After the review, we rank our favourite iterations of Superman across his long cinematic and television history. Plus dig into this year’s newly announced Emmy nominations.
