Steering the ship of the DC Universe was a task without Henry Cavill
, but James Gunn was ready to place his bets. Having been resolute in taking forward the story of Superman
with David Corenswet, major contentions, and criticism have flown Gunn’s way for his and Peter Safran’s re-imagination of the comic book live-action adaptation. But with each passing day, as the gap diminishes between his plans and turning them into reality, the anticipation skyrockets with glowing reviews from Nicholas Hoult.
Despite the apprehension surrounding the project, Hoult’s praise for Gunn and Corenswet is a cue for fans to fasten their seatbelts and buckle up for a super ride.
