If you need further convincing that David Corenswet is the Man of Tomorrow after the past week or so of set photos, look no further than these latest snaps from the set of Superman.

Production continues in Cleveland, Ohio, and the iconic DC Comics superhero has now been spotted taking flight. As you might expect, Corenswet's Kal-El kneeled to the ground before leaping up, up and away (with special effects no doubt set to show him taking off after he jumped into the air). 

The actor certainly looks the part and this is an iconic piece of Superman imagery which should look incredible on screen.

We're hearing rumblings that Hawkgirl and Supergirl could be next to be seen on set, so the reveals might not end here. In the meantime, though, this is a fantastic sight to behold and we'll hopefully get some footage to go with the photos in due course.

Check out this new look at Superman in the X posts below. A full gallery of images can be found at Cleveland.com.

Superman tells the story of Superman's journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, guided by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.

David Corenswet is playing the Man of Steel, while Rachel Brosnahan has been tapped to star as Lois Lane.

The cast includes Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, and Gabriela de Faría as The Engineer.

Supporting characters include Sara Sampaio as Eve Teschmacher, Wendell Pierce as Perry White, Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Pruitt Taylor Vince as Pa Kent, Neva Howell as Ma Kent, Beck Bennett as Steve Lombard, Mikaela Hoover as Cat Grant, Christopher MacDonald as Ron Troupe, and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.

Milly Alcock is also expected to make a cameo appearance as Supergirl before taking flight in her own movie, Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow.

Superman is currently set to be released in theaters on July 11, 2025.

@WhatIfRickJames - RIGHT.

I told myself I’d stop looking at the set photos. But oh man, so glad I saw this one! Supes is my all time fav, and it really looks like Gunn “gets” it.

My dad just sent me a clip of his Superman cartoon, the New Adventures from the 80s. Listening to that theme song, and these images. Such a perfect fit. Wishing we’ll get the hopeful, bright hero we know, who can also fight and bring the spectacle, but only draws when he has too. Someone compared him to the western Shane, and yeah I dig that.

@DocSpock - I agree with both points...the colors look good the suit isn't good.Supes looks like he's wearing an old man diaper....while wearing Cap jacket.

David looks solid as Supes...that Clark Kent hair though...wtf!

The film may turn out good, but the suit will always be a back-peddling disappointment.

The suit needs to be tightened up and removed its lines, then be perfect

@RolandD - You will suspend your disbelief that a man can't fly, long enough to enjoy this film.

(that was the original tagline)

@RolandD - Debbie Downer's randomly dispensed facts are both depressing and correct. So, you're right.
RolandD
RolandD - 7/1/2024, 6:42 PM
@Lisa89 - LOL. Hey, i did notice that you may have hopes that the film turns out good despite your dislike of the suit. There are things I would change and expect that the bagginess will be smoothed out in the final product and I would ditch the high collar and the lines, but I love the colors. I liked Cavill’s suit overall but I have always thought that the suit needs the red in the middle for tradition’s sake and for color balance. They improved the colors in JL, theatrical version, IMHO by brightening them. I mainly hope that the movie is good and I will take what I can get with the suit.

@Lisa89 - ...so exactly what superman's costume was based on?
Lisa89
Lisa89 - 7/1/2024, 7:09 PM
@RolandD - Wonder Woman was introduced with a screamingly 1940s hairstyle. Fortunately, this was remedied as her hairstyle changed with the times. For some reason, the screamingly 1930s aspect of Superman's suit (trunks over pants, 1930s circus strongman style) took decades to be phased out. To insist that the trunks be brought back "for tradition's sake" is no less bizarre than insisting that Wonder Woman should retain her 1940s hairstyle.
Lisa89
Lisa89 - 7/1/2024, 7:10 PM
@Origame - See above.
Origame
Origame - 7/1/2024, 7:20 PM
@Lisa89 - well from that same token why is there no conversation about removing his cape? No one wears capes anymore. That doesn't match the times.

Not to mention skin tight clothes in public was also a style by strongmen. So why not insist that should be phased out?

Hell, the current style for wonder woman is a battle attire akin to ancient Greek or Roman warriors. That was well before comics existed and, by your example, should be phased out.

Simply saying these are old fashion styles isn't enough to say they should change, because these are old fashioned characters.

Coulson put it best in this clip

@Lisa89 - They may have been phased out as you said, but as of Action 1000, they are again comic accurate.
Lisa89
Lisa89 - 7/1/2024, 7:38 PM
@Origame - As you know, superheroes wearing capes and tight clothing predates Superman. The only thing that screams 1938 about his appearance is the trunks over pants. That's why so many celebrated when they finally disappeared. If you like the trunks, that's great for you. You're getting what you want. Any justification for them, beyond you liking them, will never truly fly.
Origame
Origame - 7/1/2024, 8:14 PM
@Lisa89 - no, because superman was literally the first and everyone was copying him.

And you claim that's the only thing that screams strongman. But the whole reason it's skintight is because of strongmen to show off their muscles.

And yes, some people celebrated. Others criticized it for the removal. And others still also criticized how no red was placed there in order to properly break up the blue. There is a reason why the trunks came back, both in the comics and live action.

And guess what? You have zero justification for why the trunks should go beyond being old fashioned. And no, your justification for other old fashioned elements of the costume don't fly either by your logic, because all you can say is it's the superhero tradition.
Origame
Origame - 7/1/2024, 8:41 PM
@Lisa89 - first of all these aren't superheroes. They're pulp heroes. Most of them don't even wear costumes, but instead clothes matching the times (hence the reason for capes, because capes were in fashion depending on the time).

Really the closest thing to a superhero you have is the phantom, but even he isn't really a superhero because he doesn't have a significant secret identity nor a city he is sworn to protect.
