If you left ‘Superman’ thinking Corenswet was born to play this character, his audition tape will further prove you right.
The world was abuzz with speculation just a few years ago when it came time for James Gunn to cast his new Superman. Even before the part ultimately went to David Corenswet, he was being floated around as a likely candidate, and now you can watch how he got the part.
YouTube account 21Casting posted the actor’s audition tape, which he performed with his wife Julia Warner. The three-minute video features him as Clark Kent being interviewed as Superman by Lois Lane over his intervention in Biayla—not Jarnanphur, as it is in the finished film—and early parts of their argument that helps inform the film’s core philosophy about the hero’s place in the world.
