He's perfect, or he's too small, or he's not Henry Cavill, or he looks so much like Superman, or... Well, you get the idea. It's fair to say that Superman's movie casting carries similar expectations as casting Batman or James Bond. There's a weight of history there thanks to those who came before and how millions of DC comic book pages have portrayed DC's most wholesome superhero. In all of that, one question can too easily be passed over: will David Corenswet actually be a good Superman?

He's a fresh face with the added benefit of looking an awful lot like Superman has been drawn on the page for decades. He's also an actor, of course, with work out there for everyone to see and judge.
