The Daily Planet - Superman News and Speculation Thread (🚨TAG SPOILERS🚨)

Well I know it works for me because I haven’t once looked at that pic and seen David Corenswet. I just see Superman. Like, that’s Supes sitting in a chair.

My counterargument to that is that comics and live-action can be two very different mediums. IRL a 1:1 classic Superman suit would look quite plain. You need something breaking up the design somehow, even if it's just some kind of texturing. Unfortunately they went overboard with it here.

Sure, yes. There's a middle ground that is hard to obtain. But sometimes they add up so many little small changes from one design to the other that the original concept design gets disfigured. It happens in music too. The demo can be vastly different from the final song and there are many elements that get lost in the middle.

Ok @Invader Joker the eyebrows are definitely still lightened in the pic. Idk what’s up with that. I mean it looks fine in that pic, I just don’t get the point of doing it at all?

The best guess I have is maybe he wants Superman to intentionally look a bit weird because he's an alien.

 

[emielaen]

He's not smiling with his chest out, so that means he's depressed and sad and the movie will just be MoS again? Is that really what we're doing?

 

[BobJM]

Does this mean we’re about to see set pics with Corenswet in the suit?

It'd narrow down Superman's secret identity a little more for the likes of Lois, Jimmy, and Perry.

'Hey, who else do we know who's built like a linebacker and who has weird eyebrows like a bizarro Bogdan?'

The other guess I have is that he has darker eyebrows as Clark Kent and it's part of the look to throw people off

 

[Alien Anal]

I see a focused and determined looking Superman rather than sad or miserable and it looks like it's been a rough day of work for him.

I just hope we get a bright clean suit for most of the film and the damaged look far later.

I reaaally hope we get the classic look of him in costume minus the top.

David Corenswet at the gym!

 

[Herolee10]

Too bad the costume pretty much hides most of that physique.

 

[Boom]

Yeah...

Those traps were made for a low-cut collar. Criminal.

 

[TheGDBatman]

I mean, literally all the costumes do…

Is this like the Spider-Man spank video...

 

[Karelia]

Even though this isn't the suit I was hoping for, neither the hairstyle (at least from what I can tell) I don't think it's the worst thing like a part of the internet seems to think it is. I'm a little shocked how it seems to be getting blasted, but at the same time.. being a big DC fan my whole life (and being on these boards since Smallville was on air) it just seems DC always has some loud haters. Sometimes I get it, but it just seems almost everything gets crapped on before it even comes out.

It'd be pretty quiet around here if we waited for the final product to say anything

 

[Lily Adler]

Someone needs to ask Gunn why Clark doesn't wash his suit or does he not understand the Bio Electric Aura of Kryptonian anatomy?

Right! It always annoys me when people act like you should only deliver praise onto something before the movie comes out.

 

[jetage]

I wonder if the eyebrows is for an aesthetic reason. Maybe with his skin tone, and blue eyes with that dark of a hair color he looked, non organic, or slightly odd.

Supes that can't look battles damaged is boring and Supes that can lift an entire plan from the tip of the wing because of this aura is boring.

It's that same crazy level of pseudoscience that makes it so amazing.

It looks so goofy. Supes should have to use that handsome noggin of his to figure out the best way to save a large falling object. It's fun watching Spider-Man have to think quick about where and when to shoot webs.
