I have never been the biggest Superman fan. I always knew the character because of my dad. He loves this guy. I however never really liked Superman. The bright blue and red suit, the trunks, the boy scout, yeah yeah yeah. He never really struck a chord with me and I would be into Marvel characters because that’s what was shoved down my throat because everywhere you go it would be Marvel and the rival company , DC, never got to that level. I never really knew what Superman was about. That was until recently when I searched up “Why is Superman special?”. I saw videos on what Superman means to so many people. I saw so many of those videos that it made me pick up a Superman comic. I read All-Star Superman and I understand why this character is so beloved.
He stands for hope, justice, and a better tomorrow. I think we need Superman now more than ever. There are so many evil Superman tropes in movies and TV, one of the most famous ones being, Homelander from the TV show, The Boys. I feel like it’s time to bring back Superman and give him the movie he deserves. Then last December, a teaser trailer showed up. It was for a Superman movie. I watched it and I could not be more excited. It was everything that the comic was; bright, hopeful, and really showed what Superman is all about.
I’m so excited for this movie and I know that the lead actor, the one who’s playing Superman, David Corenswet will do an amazing job. There are people skeptical about if he will do a good job. To that I say, people were skeptical about Robert Pattinson when he was cast as Batman in, The Batman and he turned out to be one of my favourite interpretations of Batman. I’m sure it will be the same case with David Corenswet as Superman. Even if the movie sucks, at least they tried to make a great Superman movie.
Superman lands into theaters on July 11th 2025
