Furthermore, it has been confirmed that Henry Cavill, who received acclaim for his portrayal of Superman in Man of Steel and its sequels, will not be returning.

Who will replace Henry Cavill in Superman Legacy?

The past few months have seen speculation regarding the actor who will replace Henry Cavill in the upcoming superhero film Superman Legacy, which promises a reimagining of the character's origin story. According to recent reports from Hollywood Reporter, director James Gunn and his team have been actively considering top contenders for the role of Superman/Clark Kent.

Reports suggest that David Corenswet, best known for his role in Pearl, is the top contender to play Superman in the upcoming film Superman Legacy. Corenswet is expected to undergo a screen test for the role, likely after Memorial Day or early June this year. While two other young actors are reportedly being considered, their names have not yet been disclosed. However, it has been confirmed that Jacob Elordi, previously rumored to be shortlisted for the role, was never under consideration. These updates come from Hollywood Reporter.

Who will play Lois Lane?

Superman Legacy is not only looking for a new Superman but also a new Lois Lane. Emma Mackey, Rachel Brosnahan, Phoebe Dynevor, and Samara Weaving are among the actresses being considered for the role of the Daily Planet reporter and Superman's love interest. It is still unclear who will be selected for the screen test.

James Gunn's Superman and Lois Lane

Director James Gunn aims to cast actors in their mid-twenties for the roles of Superman and Lois Lane in Superman Legacy, presenting the characters as younger than in the previous Man of Steel series. Gunn emphasized the importance of finding someone with the kindness and compassion of Superman, while also being an alien. An announcement regarding the cast is expected in August or September of 2023.
