David Corenswet reportedly leading Superman: Legacy search

It didn't take long for fans to gravitate towards the potential Superman actor, with some creating fan art with Corenswet wearing the iconic suit - hope symbol and all.

The fan's imagination and artistic prowess reflect their eagerness to accept Corenswet as the new Superman.

Superman is an integral part of global pop culture, which is why it was such a big deal for Henry Cavill [to return to the role](https://www.xfire.com/dceu-henry-cavill-officially-back-as-superman-black-adam/\) only to vacate it months later.

With the potential casting of David Corensweat, fans are eager to see how he will carry the legacy forward. With his charm and talent, Corenswet might just be the gust of fresh air that the franchise has desperately needed for years.

For now, though, fans will have to wait for official confirmation.

As for Gunn, he isn't quite done with the Marvel Cinematic Universe yet. His final outing, Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, is still showing in theaters with no signs of slowing down. It's highly unlikely that its box office numbers will drop significantly, at least until Fast X arrives on May 19.
