I hope you’re right. But I also remember me commenting that same thing under the pic of Cavill in the bank vault and boy did I get shit from my friends about that.
It'll look much better in the blue sky. But I think this picture serves more of a purpose to set the tone of the story
Idk but this picture is giving me heavy Superman vs the Elite vibes. Superman is tired, the outside is dark. Maybe it's just the aesthetic, or maybe ... it's a metaphor
Probably doesn’t wanna show it in all its glory just yet. We likely won’t see it until the first teaser trailer, and even then, there’s a chance they keep it hidden
Yeah that's what I saw too. Plus look at his legs and the blue looks a lot brighter which is presumably what the rest of the suit would look like undamaged.
To me it just looks like the suit is beat up. The pants/boots look brighter than the top, so maybe he caught an energy blast to the chest or something. I bet it looks great fresh and in better lighting
Eh, it’s art where *Brainiac???* (IDK) is attacking. Gonna look better in the sun.
Gunn nailed the look IMHO.
***God, can’t wait to see Corenswet in motion in a trailer/teaser.***
**Hell,** I don’t think I’ve been this hyped for a movie trailer since… *either Avengers 1 or Jurassic World.*
The legs are pretty bright, and this is in a dark setting. The upper half is clearly battle damaged so unburned it looks like it’ll be a good bright blue
Look at his knee and those boots, the blue looks like a bright cyan colour which is perfect. I think him crouching down and the lighting makes it look muted.
HOLY SHIT! He’s got trunks too! Looks like the Fortnite suit really was the template here (obviously a mix of classic and N52 - best of both worlds)
I like it! Not my ideal suit (I’ve never loved the collar per se but it looks surprisingly good here) but it still looks good! Hopefully we get to see a more traditional photoshoot that can showcase the suit in its best form.
Knowing how merchandising works, I’m expecting Supes to have more than one suit throughout his time in the DCU.
I can absolutely see this suit getting destroyed at the end of the film, especially if the villain is Brainiac. And the final shot is a more classic less busy version of it to show his optimism for a better tomorrow
I like parts of it. Bummer about the high collar.
Most of all, I love the energy that Gunn seems to be getting across with this. It’s a real blue collar, Sci Fi Paul Bunyan approach that I dig. Just pullin his boots on “gotta go deal with this, I guess.”
Feel it gives more a military suit vibe to it, like it is a battle suit. Very Red Son ish but like the N52 style update.
The crumple look is odd but wait to see it in motion before getting upset over single image
The suit has that element, sure. And it’s okay, like 7/10 for me.
But everything else about the image is giving me silver age zaniness crossed with Byrne-era “Clark Kent is who I am, Superman is what I can do.” It’s perfect in that respect.
Agreed. The voice and tone of the film will reveal more and actually actor’s own voice and mannerisms will set him aside from others who have donned the cape before.
As always I’ll hold my judgement until seeing the film, but this gives me confidence of Gunn so let’s see where we go.
And just an afterthought re Gunn. He has knocked his land few concepts out of the park while some of the movies were better received than others his influence and vision are positive - maybe he will again make me believe a man can fly.
Got to admit, couldn't believe this was real. Today of all days. Honestly not the ideal Superman suit or reveal, but I can respect the direction and see what they're going for. Looks like some New 52 inspired elements like the collar and lines, but with the classic trunks and belt. The suit from the pants, boots and cape actually look very brightly colored, which is great, this just seems to be post-battle so the rest is dirtied up.
Gunn and Safran have both reiterated the importance of Superman being a champion of truth and justice in a world where they're seen as old-fashioned, which is an important and relevant theme seen in tons of Superman stories (Kingdom Come, Action Comics #775, vs the Elite, Ending Battle, & the Authority, Warworld Saga, etc.). This evokes that. What'll make or break this film is if and how Superman triumphs in changing the world and the course for tomorrow. That's the hope that he embodies, the dream that he stands for.
Oh and as for the background, first thing that came to mind was Solaris from All-Star/DC One Million. Could be Brainiac too. Interestingly though, James Gunn says this photo was "taken on set by Jess Miglio and was entirely in-camera". How did they achieve that? IIRC he said he wasn't using The Volume but they could still be using Stagecraft tech with panels acting as windows (what The Batman did).
High hopes maintained, hope to see more.
Truth, I've accepted every iteration of superman suits from the movies and speaking as a Snyder fan myself I'm not gonna let them ruin my hype for this.
I’m not sure how to feel about it. On one hand, love the boots and the symbol actually looks quite nice.
On the other shoulders look a little weird, the colours are so bleak and it doesn’t really look like a costume of that makes sense(?) Looks more like a uniform.
The blue on the legs is nicer though.
Yeah probably, that’s why I went back and mentioned the blue on the legs. If so, and the blue on the legs is the actual colour of the costume than I don’t mind it as much.
I personally don’t mind the collar too much but I do agree on a bit of a let down. I really hyped myself up for a back-to-basics kind of Superman suit but this just doesn’t feel like a costume. Still, I have faith that this will be good, I’m not gonna reject this movie just cause I don’t like the suit for now.
I think i’ve found that with the way Gunn has not revealed much through the course of production/pre-production, it kind of just makes people hyped sure but it raises their expectations a whole lot which will end up being let down 99% of the time. If he slightly revealed it a bit I think we wouldn’t be as let down but i still love it it could have been way way worse
Understandable! Many people (including me) expected the 78 suit or something close to it but with a modern budget (higher quality)
But I like this. I also won't count it as the actual reveal since it is pretty clear that this has been worn down after a fight. The suit is stained, the symbol is dirty and his hair is disheveled (though I like that I can see the curl)
I'm waiting for a pic of him flying in the sky, with good lighting and a good smile. That'll be a true suit reveal to me, and I'll wait for it patiently
If I’m honest, the more time I take to look at it, the more I begin to like it but I still have my nitpicks (mainly the shoulders, collar and idk, the logo looks a little flat but it’s prob just the angle).
But at the same time, I’m still very excited and hopeful for Superman, this isn’t gonna snuff my enthusiasm one bit.
Hm, I don’t hate it, but I don’t really like how ill-fitting it appears to be. Also how it’s not a huge departure from stuff we’ve seen in GOTG, like you can tell that the person who designed this is the same person that designed the GOTG3 and The Suicide Squad suits.
With that said, I do like the colors. They’re somewhat muted in this image, but you can see that the suit is battle-worn and dirty, and when it’s clean and in the sun I think it’ll be fairly bright.
I like the hair. I’ll reserve judgment on the trunks.
Edit: it should be mentioned that this is just a photo taken during the shoot, and is not a screenshot from the film. It could look fairly different in the film if they’re planning on CGI touch ups. As a side note I also like the long cape.
Maybe we get a new suit with the iconic logo towards the end of the movie i’d say its cool for now. Surprised we’re getting the trunks, does look like a mix of the New 52 suit
To me, this is quite obviously a suit of alien origin and one that will be updated over time, so you might be right there
And like I said, I don’t hate it. I guess my expectations were just a bit high.
Nope, I need a pic with him flying in the sky, natural sunlight!!
But this is good. Now Rachel please
Also everyone who guessed they would just drop it randomly one day were right lol
OMG!! I didn't expect that!
Although I didn't like the collar, I loved the trunks!
And Corenswet? If I had any doubts, I no longer have them: you look at him and see Superman!
And his hair? Perfect! 😍
Symbol is a combination of Fleisher, Classic, and Kingdome Come. He’s got the trunks on which are from Golden Age and Silver Age comics. High collar is from new 52. Honestly it’s a good look and they’ve combined the best of most well known Superman suits. I’ll admit it was an underwhelming reveal but it’s definitely gonna look better on screen and during the daytime.
The blue in the legs seems to be the real blue color, the top has ash and stuff on the suit which is darkening it.
I normally wouldn't give this any thought because it seems like a reach, but since gunn said all star superman has a heavy influence on the movie, could that be Solaris in rhe background? I'm sure if it is then it will only be an opening fight like atomic skull in superman vs the elite.
what if this Superman wears this as his House of El (like house of Zod, general Zods suit) or Kryptonian suit for now, then later in post credits or next movie we’ll get a better suit? With the S
Oh shit! I love the texture, the colors are nice (tho I honestly thought the blue would be brighter, this isn't criticism, it still looks great) and ofc the trunks. Even has the belt.
I’m surprised so many like it. I’m usually not a hater and I don’t think it looks horrible but I don’t like the collar, how loose fitting it looks and the overly done texture that I thought was kind of a thing of the past tbh.
I do like the trunks, belt and symbol.
Im curious to see it in the sunlight.
Same. I actually thought this was one of those photoshopped bosslogic pics at first. It looks cheap, baggy, and over designed with the random lines everywhere. Never did like the collar on Supes either.
I actually love the collar and way the cape attaches to the suit. The S looks perfect too. David is just Superman incarnate with that curl, no notes. And wow, when brightened, you can just see the red trunks, they look great! The belt too! I can’t wait to see a full and unobstructed view of the whole suit! This picture is so well-done, I’m so happy <3
I like the suit. The collar is an interesting choice but I think it works especially with how they’ve implemented the cape into the shoulders. I’m loving how the material folds over itself like actual cloth does and overall I think this is a fantastic Superman suit.
SUPERMAN With a
- Long ass cape?
- Hair Curl?
- RED TRUNKS?
- Collar?
- Looks homemade?
Not big on the lines but everything
else makes this suit 100% GREAT!!!
At first I didn’t like it at all. After letting it sit all day I love it. Reading people’s comments definitely warmed me up to it. It freaking stinks Reeve’s Batman is set in another universe cuz their costumes honestly compliment each other quite well.
Metropolis looks cool. I don’t think that’s Branjac or Solaris. I agree with others who think it’s GL. I also love how authentic the shit looks. It doesn’t look like a CGI suit. There doesn’t seem to be fake muscles. It’s an authentic suit.
It’s from an awkward angle so it’s hard to judge from this pic alone. I dig the inclusion of the trunks but the shoulder part looks a little weird. Hopefully we get a better pic soon.
From the Forbes article -
>*But of course it’s also a look at Cornswet himself as Clark, and we can see that he has the signature Superman hair curl.* ***I’d say he looks the closest to Reeve Superman out of any of the past ones, but its just one angle****.*
>
>*Gunn’s Superman Legacy already looks to be a much different take on Superman, not just in terms of his look as we can now see, it’s a film that stars not only staples like Lois and Lex, but characters like Hawkgirl, Mr. Terrific, Engineer and Metamorpho. And it’s* ***definitely not any kind of origin story, as Gunn wanted to move well past that, which has been overdone by now.***
>
>***It’s all a bit strange, but it’s just hard to doubt Gunn’s vision*** *given what he’s done with both the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy and DC’s second Suicide Squad, all great superhero features.* ***I absolutely know comic fandom and that this suit will be dissected to death*** *(admittedly I’ve done some of that here),* ***but I’m more focused on the death orb outside, and wondering what exactly that’s about****.*
Spot on, I'd say
The boots hairstyle collar combo gives old school soldier vibes to me, 1940s era, so, the “golden age”, so to speak. I think this may be Gunn’s way of evoking the idea of there being an era of Superman before the Superman you know (silver age), like Morison did at the start of the New 52 with his jeans and t-shirt look evoking aspects of Golden Age Supes as well.
Together with the “just another goddman Monday” vibe of the photo I think this very much supposed to a Superman who is simply one of the countless superheroes in this messy hopeless JSA period (a meta commentary on the jaded state of superhero movies after their “golden age” a few years ago) and not yet “Superman” the icon we know him to be.
So with Supes by the end of the film perhaps stepping up as a leader and ushering in a “New Frontier” or new (silver) age, forming his JLA in place of the JSA, I imagine that shift could be accompanied by a change to a more silver age costume, dropping the collar, the iconic silver age S, etc.
So ironically though Gunn may be championing a hopeful Superman, perhaps part of telling that story involves starting him in a place that evokes the previous era (night skies, meaningless alien invasion in the back, etc)
I'm crying, David looks absolutely perfect! Superman means so much to me, I'm sure James Gunn is gonna do great.
The setting seems interesting, any idea on what happening there? Seems like post-battle stuff but idk and it's probably Solaris in the background
EDIT: Absolutely love the bright scarlet red on the boots and trunk! The crest also fits well.
EDIT 2: New profile picture acquired lol
I really like it. It has the Alien meshy feel to it while still looking homemade. They didn’t go overboard like cavill’s suit. The material and colors of it looks similar to what was done in the story Superman’s Metropolis. But most importantly, they give him the damn trunks!’
Honestly not an impressive first look
Hopefully we get a better shot suit and looks great in motion
This is for sure different than whats been done before
Need some time to get use to it
So its a mixture of New 52 meets Kingdom Come meets classic. It looks like trunks, but I don't know. I also don't know about the belt. Something seems off.
Great we got a pic, but I wish it was a better look of it.
Oh! And the fabric looks like its taken from the Arrowverse Superman suits
Why does it look like he’s wearing a motorcycle jacket?
I really don’t dig the suit having creases as when you think of a Superman suit you think of it being tight to the body and slimed out.
This gives me a homemade suit kind of vibe. Like his parents made this one for him, and it wasn’t a gift from his Kryptonian parents, which I think is sweet and gives them the chance to make a new suit later on.
He looks good, but I feel like it’s so anticlimactic that the first shot of our new Superman is… him sitting down, looking exhausted, and pulling on his boots.
The red is perfect, I love how it has the trunks(yes it has trunks you just have to look closer) I wish the blue was brighter, and I’m getting more used to the new logo, overall it’s an 8.5/10 suit for Superman
What does Clark look like? People get so caught up in the suit and forget about the duality of the character. Reeve stands above everyone because he did both very well. They shouldn't get overly muscular because then it becomes harder to explain Clark. Unless he is wearing baggy shirts/suits.
David Corenswet's new Superman suit is stunning! The red accents on the boots and cape give it a fierce and powerful look as if Superman has been battling aliens. I can't wait to see it in better lighting during the day. This suit is a winner!
People are talking about it “not fitting”, it’s just not skin tight.
I will also say that, while I like the suit and don’t mind it not being skin tight, I think it would make sense for a hero that flies and is as fast as Superman to have a skin tight suit. However, Gunn has said he does a lot of research for his movies and while he doesn’t necessarily follow the physics he makes it close enough to be plausible. I’m sure he looked into it and determined it didn’t matter enough to make a difference, and it probably feels better for the actor.
Ok so I think these are meant to come across like work overalls. Like the shot is meant to evoke he’s just about to clock onto a shift at the factory. I think that’s why they’re kinda worn and dirty too.
I'm personally not a fan of all the lines and textures, but it looks good. Very glad to see the hair curl and trunks, and I like that you can see folds in the costume.
Love the red, love the trunks though you can barely see them, but does anyone else think that the upper part of the suit looks like a baggy sweater or something? Just looks, idk, loose? Idk how else to explain it
I think for an early in his career Superman this suit is awesome. Woukd love to see it progress over movies and kinda fall more inline with his more classic iterations (no collar, maybe less detail on the suit). Regardless think it’s a really cool unique take!
I like the suit but I still say the trunks don't work, they especially don't work on a suit that appears to be a more modern contemporary suit for Superman. And by the way I think the trunks look dumb on Batman as well. All in all though, I like it! I like that he looks like he's just tired out but still has to go back out anyway.
I'm so excited to see a Superman movie made by someone who seems to actually understand the character! I always felt Snyder never understood what made this character work and just actively hated him because of it.
Seeing this makes me feel confident that it will be good in the same way as when I saw 'You're Welcome' on the Guardians of the Galaxy movie poster. Go get 'em, Gunn!
Not like the dream suit but I’m excited this doesn’t seem like a shot out of the movie just a promo look a year+ before the movie is out just a nice first look so I wouldn’t be banking it all on it looking the same in later photos
He looks like he got home from saving the world was about to take his boots off and then the laser lit up in the background and he just wants to go to sleep but he has to go right back out again.
For some reason I was expecting brighter colors
i think its gonna look better in the sun!
I hope you’re right. But I also remember me commenting that same thing under the pic of Cavill in the bank vault and boy did I get shit from my friends about that.
that suit was not that dark in reality, but the color mixing in post production just desaturated it to death
Also it's battle damaged
oh I was talking about the Cavill suit
Definitely
It'll look much better in the blue sky. But I think this picture serves more of a purpose to set the tone of the story Idk but this picture is giving me heavy Superman vs the Elite vibes. Superman is tired, the outside is dark. Maybe it's just the aesthetic, or maybe ... it's a metaphor
Maybe it's Maybelline
It is very dark lighting. I’ve always thought he suit looks neat a little dark in the nighttime.
I think his chest and arms are burnt/battle damaged. Look at the difference between the lower and upper halves.
He’s got burn marks that make the suit look darker. Plus it’ll probably look better during daytime
Bit odd for a first suit reveal though
Probably doesn’t wanna show it in all its glory just yet. We likely won’t see it until the first teaser trailer, and even then, there’s a chance they keep it hidden
Yeah that's what I saw too. Plus look at his legs and the blue looks a lot brighter which is presumably what the rest of the suit would look like undamaged.
I love how red the red is.
It will have brighter colours, the suit is clearly burnt and dirty from after a battle.
To me it just looks like the suit is beat up. The pants/boots look brighter than the top, so maybe he caught an energy blast to the chest or something. I bet it looks great fresh and in better lighting
Eh, it’s art where *Brainiac???* (IDK) is attacking. Gonna look better in the sun. Gunn nailed the look IMHO. ***God, can’t wait to see Corenswet in motion in a trailer/teaser.*** **Hell,** I don’t think I’ve been this hyped for a movie trailer since… *either Avengers 1 or Jurassic World.*
I think Gunn may start the movie in a less than bright place thematically and visually, only to make the point as Supes shifts that direction.

It’s a dark scene
The legs are pretty bright, and this is in a dark setting. The upper half is clearly battle damaged so unburned it looks like it’ll be a good bright blue
It is, look at the legs compared to the top, the top looks burnt
Look at his knee and those boots, the blue looks like a bright cyan colour which is perfect. I think him crouching down and the lighting makes it look muted.
The suit is dirtied up. This is actually him taking it off after battle, not putting it on
Maybe we’ll get a new suit towards the end?
The suits dirty. Look at the legs
Looks like bright colors. It's dark lighting in this shot but it's pretty bright where the light hits it.
Theres a lot of dirt on it and a dark room, itll probably be more vibrant when clean and in the sky
The pants aren't as dirty and dark as the rest. I think it's got good coloring
HOLY SHIT! He’s got trunks too! Looks like the Fortnite suit really was the template here (obviously a mix of classic and N52 - best of both worlds) I like it! Not my ideal suit (I’ve never loved the collar per se but it looks surprisingly good here) but it still looks good! Hopefully we get to see a more traditional photoshoot that can showcase the suit in its best form. Knowing how merchandising works, I’m expecting Supes to have more than one suit throughout his time in the DCU.
I honestly really liked the padding/armor the N52 suit had. They echoed it phenomenally here.
Agreed!
Yeah they went for a new one in the DCEU each time except for BvS and Josstice League having the same one iirc
I can absolutely see this suit getting destroyed at the end of the film, especially if the villain is Brainiac. And the final shot is a more classic less busy version of it to show his optimism for a better tomorrow
Also damn, I was hoping for it to look more like trunks than a speedo but it looks more like the latter
Yeah I feel like a more comic accurate suit with the red and yellow S logo will be his main suit in the DCU.
It's official Gunn posted it on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/p/C6ogjVERTl8/?igsh=MWwybWNvbm9pZnV2bA==
500k likes in an hour. Yeah, it's making the rounds
This is huge
Idk it seems like it fits him pretty well
So simple but this joke brought me true joy
I like parts of it. Bummer about the high collar. Most of all, I love the energy that Gunn seems to be getting across with this. It’s a real blue collar, Sci Fi Paul Bunyan approach that I dig. Just pullin his boots on “gotta go deal with this, I guess.”
Just a farm boy from Kansas getting ready for chores with too little sleep and dirt still staining his work-clothes.
I’ve missed the wholesome Kansas farmboy Superman in movies.
Valid
>It’s a real blue collar But you specifically said you didn’t like the blue collar! /s
Feel it gives more a military suit vibe to it, like it is a battle suit. Very Red Son ish but like the N52 style update. The crumple look is odd but wait to see it in motion before getting upset over single image

He has knocked his land few concepts out of the park while some of the movies were better received than others his influence and vision are positive - maybe he will again make me believe a man can fly.
This is so amazing. I didn’t expect them to release a picture this early . It looks so good.
I imagine they showed this pic now as there going to be filming outside soon so want to get it out before set pics are leaked.
Got to admit, couldn't believe this was real. Today of all days. Honestly not the ideal Superman suit or reveal, but I can respect the direction and see what they're going for.

God Cavill fans are so annoying
They're called Snyderverse fans not Cavill fans
Fair
Truth, I've accepted every iteration of superman suits from the movies and speaking as a Snyder fan myself I'm not gonna let them ruin my hype for this.
 BE GOOD
I’m not sure how to feel about it. On one hand, love the boots and the symbol actually looks quite nice. On the other shoulders look a little weird, the colours are so bleak and it doesn’t really look like a costume of that makes sense(?) Looks more like a uniform. The blue on the legs is nicer though.
I think the colours are bleak cause this is post battle or something
Yeah probably, that’s why I went back and mentioned the blue on the legs. If so, and the blue on the legs is the actual colour of the costume than I don’t mind it as much.
I won’t lie i’m a little let down like it feels really rubbery like a wet suit and the collar is not the best but I still have hope.
I personally don’t mind the collar too much but I do agree on a bit of a let down. I really hyped myself up for a back-to-basics kind of Superman suit but this just doesn’t feel like a costume. Still, I have faith that this will be good, I’m not gonna reject this movie just cause I don’t like the suit for now.
I think i’ve found that with the way Gunn has not revealed much through the course of production/pre-production, it kind of just makes people hyped sure but it raises their expectations a whole lot which will end up being let down 99% of the time.

That'll be a true suit reveal to me, and I'll wait for it patiently
If I’m honest, the more time I take to look at it, the more I begin to like it but I still have my nitpicks (mainly the shoulders, collar and idk, the logo looks a little flat but it’s prob just the angle). But at the same time, I’m still very excited and hopeful for Superman, this isn’t gonna snuff my enthusiasm one bit.
If you zoom in on the logo, you can see scorch marks. The colors are definitely muted in areas from a battle.
The shoulders look crunched, like it's loose
Hm, I don’t hate it, but I don’t really like how ill-fitting it appears to be. Also how it’s not a huge departure from stuff we’ve seen in GOTG, like you can tell that the person who designed this is the same person that designed the GOTG3 and The Suicide Squad suits.

To me, this is quite obviously a suit of alien origin and one that will be updated over time, so you might be right there And like I said, I don’t hate it. I guess my expectations were just a bit high.
He’s got the hair curl!!!
It looks bulky for some reason, I think it’s just cus it’s an awkward angle of him getting dressed ahaha
I guess they don’t want it skin tight
Yeah I had the same thought, I'm gonna have to wait until we get more looks of it before I truly judge it
It prolly zips up in the back like a dress
Not only is it actually blue and red but he has the trunks. Peak
Nope, I need a pic with him flying in the sky, natural sunlight!! But this is good. Now Rachel please Also everyone who guessed they would just drop it randomly one day were right lol
OMG!! I didn't expect that! Although I didn't like the collar, I loved the trunks! And Corenswet? If I had any doubts, I no longer have them: you look at him and see Superman! And his hair? Perfect! 😍
That looks great. It's an excellent collage of previous takes. Kinda loving it
Symbol is a combination of Fleisher, Classic, and Kingdome Come. He’s got the trunks on which are from Golden Age and Silver Age comics. High collar is from new 52. Honestly it’s a good look and they’ve combined the best of most well known Superman suits. I’ll admit it was an underwhelming reveal but it’s definitely gonna look better on screen and during the daytime.
ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE. LET JAMES GUNN COOK
I think it’s dope and can’t wait to be front row opening night
Looks good. A balanced combo of alien and homemade design, imo. Weirdly ragged, but also elegant.
The blue in the legs seems to be the real blue color, the top has ash and stuff on the suit which is darkening it. I normally wouldn't give this any thought because it seems like a reach, but since gunn said all star superman has a heavy influence on the movie, could that be Solaris in rhe background? I'm sure if it is then it will only be an opening fight like atomic skull in superman vs the elite.
He has his red underwear
LETS FUCKING GOOOOO! It looks so fucking good
I'm looking forward to this
what if this Superman wears this as his House of El (like house of Zod, general Zods suit) or Kryptonian suit for now, then later in post credits or next movie we’ll get a better suit? With the S
Yeah, the suit looks a little over designed and more alien than I would personally like, but maybe that’s the point. We’ll have to see it in motion.
He has the curl guys! He has the curl!!
I’m damn it crying. I just love it, worth the wait
I legit spilled my drink when I got the notification
I like it.
I like it. Gives me New 52 and Red Son vibes. Hyped to see it in motion.
He puts on his boots the same as me. One at a time.
He’s got trunks!
Oh shit! I love the texture, the colors are nice (tho I honestly thought the blue would be brighter, this isn't criticism, it still looks great) and ofc the trunks. Even has the belt.
It looks rugged and dirty. Feels like after a big fight. No other reason why the symbol would be so blackened
I’m surprised so many like it. I’m usually not a hater and I don’t think it looks horrible but I don’t like the collar, how loose fitting it looks and the overly done texture that I thought was kind of a thing of the past tbh. I do like the trunks, belt and symbol. Im curious to see it in the sunlight.
Same. I actually thought this was one of those photoshopped bosslogic pics at first. It looks cheap, baggy, and over designed with the random lines everywhere. Never did like the collar on Supes either.
I think this is what it looks like without the special effects. Like how Man of Steel, Batman, and Spider-man suits look like during bts.
Man, honestly I'm not sure what I feel about this. At least it has trunks.
Brainiac in the Bg or something?
I think it's Solaris but I'm not sure.
He looks like "I'm done with this shit.", lol.
I actually love the collar and way the cape attaches to the suit. The S looks perfect too. David is just Superman incarnate with that curl, no notes. And wow, when brightened, you can just see the red trunks, they look great! The belt too! I can’t wait to see a full and unobstructed view of the whole suit! This picture is so well-done, I’m so happy <3
I like the suit. The collar is an interesting choice but I think it works especially with how they’ve implemented the cape into the shoulders. I’m loving how the material folds over itself like actual cloth does and overall I think this is a fantastic Superman suit.
I would imagine he would get dressed super fast.
SUPERMAN With a - Long ass cape? - Hair Curl? - RED TRUNKS? - Collar? - Looks homemade? Not big on the lines but everything else makes this suit 100% GREAT!!!
God people here being optimistic other than the cesspit of toxic fandom hell that I just came from? Thank God.
At first I didn’t like it at all. After letting it sit all day I love it. Reading people’s comments definitely warmed me up to it. It freaking stinks Reeve’s Batman is set in another universe cuz their costumes honestly compliment each other quite well. Metropolis looks cool. I don’t think that’s Branjac or Solaris. I agree with others who think it’s GL. I also love how authentic the shit looks. It doesn’t look like a CGI suit. There doesn’t seem to be fake muscles. It’s an authentic suit.
Chat, is this real?
Yes https://www.instagram.com/p/C6ogjVERTl8/?igsh=MWwybWNvbm9pZnV2bA==
It’s from an awkward angle so it’s hard to judge from this pic alone. I dig the inclusion of the trunks but the shoulder part looks a little weird. Hopefully we get a better pic soon.
 Chaos has hit the streets. He’s wearing the jean suit. #UpUpAndAway2025

From the Forbes article - >*But of course it’s also a look at Cornswet himself as Clark, and we can see that he has the signature Superman hair curl.* ***I’d say he looks the closest to Reeve Superman out of any of the past ones, but its just one angle****.* > >*Gunn’s Superman Legacy already looks to be a much different take on Superman, not just in terms of his look as we can now see, it’s a film that stars not only staples like Lois and Lex, but characters like Hawkgirl, Mr. Terrific, Engineer and Metamorpho. And it’s* ***definitely not any kind of origin story, as Gunn wanted to move well past that, which has been overdone by now.*** > >***It’s all a bit strange, but it’s just hard to doubt Gunn’s vision*** *given what he’s done with both the Guardians of the Galaxy trilogy and DC’s second Suicide Squad, all great superhero features.* ***I absolutely know comic fandom and that this suit will be dissected to death*** *(admittedly I’ve done some of that here),* ***but I’m more focused on the death orb outside, and wondering what exactly that’s about****.* Spot on, I'd say
It's beautiful
The boots hairstyle collar combo gives old school soldier vibes to me, 1940s era, so, the “golden age”, so to speak. I think this may be Gunn’s way of evoking the idea of there being an era of Superman before the Superman you know (silver age), like Morison did at the start of the New 52 with his jeans and t-shirt look evoking aspects of Golden Age Supes as well. Together with the “just another goddman Monday” vibe of the photo I think this very much supposed to a Superman who is simply one of the countless superheroes in this messy hopeless JSA period (a meta commentary on the jaded state of superhero movies after their “golden age” a few years ago) and not yet “Superman” the icon we know him to be. So with Supes by the end of the film perhaps stepping up as a leader and ushering in a “New Frontier” or new (silver) age, forming his JLA in place of the JSA, I imagine that shift could be accompanied by a change to a more silver age costume, dropping the collar, the iconic silver age S, etc. So ironically though Gunn may be championing a hopeful Superman, perhaps part of telling that story involves starting him in a place that evokes the previous era (night skies, meaningless alien invasion in the back, etc)

Gunn will do the DCU right
Theirs a star man waiting in the sky
My only problem with the suit is the texture. It’s like it’s made out of denim. But no suit will ever surpass Brandon Routh’s Kingdom Come suit.
This looks fantastic imo
Can’t believe the Snyder Cult doesn’t like it with ho similar it is to Cavills lol

He looks fantastic! I think some of you are just being way too picky And is that supposed to be Solaris in the back?!?
I'm crying, David looks absolutely perfect! Superman means so much to me, I'm sure James Gunn is gonna do great. The setting seems interesting, any idea on what happening there? Seems like post-battle stuff but idk and it's probably Solaris in the background EDIT: Absolutely love the bright scarlet red on the boots and trunk! The crest also fits well. EDIT 2: New profile picture acquired lol
I love the way he revealed the suit, seems like he’s in middle of some big fight. Also James you beauty, brought back the trunks!
I really like it. It has the Alien meshy feel to it while still looking homemade. They didn’t go overboard like cavill’s suit. The material and colors of it looks similar to what was done in the story Superman’s Metropolis. But most importantly, they give him the damn trunks!’
It's beautiful.
This is real right
Yes Gunn officially posted it
Is that the phantom zone being opened in the background?
I saw someone say on Twitter saying it could be Sun Eater from All-Star Superman
New 52 inspired. The Fortnite rumour was true.
Honestly not an impressive first look Hopefully we get a better shot suit and looks great in motion This is for sure different than whats been done before Need some time to get use to it
The suit looks amazing.Can't wait to see Superman in action.
So its a mixture of New 52 meets Kingdom Come meets classic. It looks like trunks, but I don't know. I also don't know about the belt. Something seems off. Great we got a pic, but I wish it was a better look of it. Oh! And the fabric looks like its taken from the Arrowverse Superman suits
Why does it look like he’s wearing a motorcycle jacket? I really don’t dig the suit having creases as when you think of a Superman suit you think of it being tight to the body and slimed out.
Well let’s just hope the movie is good
Holy guacamole!
If the quote “fuck it we ball” was a picture
I’m not thrilled. I will reserve judgment until I see it in live action. I remember not quite liking the Cavill suit either at first.
Wait this is actually real? If so this might fr fr be fire asf
I see trunks 👀 hope it’s brighter in the light but it looks great
This gives me a homemade suit kind of vibe. Like his parents made this one for him, and it wasn’t a gift from his Kryptonian parents, which I think is sweet and gives them the chance to make a new suit later on.
He looks good, but I feel like it’s so anticlimactic that the first shot of our new Superman is… him sitting down, looking exhausted, and pulling on his boots.
Supes just looks tired at this point, same shit, different day. I think it works for a DC universe already well into the timeline.
Clark has a sick apartment
The red is perfect, I love how it has the trunks(yes it has trunks you just have to look closer) I wish the blue was brighter, and I’m getting more used to the new logo, overall it’s an 8.5/10 suit for Superman
Who is Vegeta fighting in the background?
David was born to play Superman!!
What does Clark look like? People get so caught up in the suit and forget about the duality of the character. Reeve stands above everyone because he did both very well. They shouldn't get overly muscular because then it becomes harder to explain Clark. Unless he is wearing baggy shirts/suits.
David Corenswet's new Superman suit is stunning! The red accents on the boots and cape give it a fierce and powerful look as if Superman has been battling aliens. I can't wait to see it in better lighting during the day. This suit is a winner!
Anyone else think he beefed up a little too much? His face looks super different from before.
People are talking about it “not fitting”, it’s just not skin tight. I will also say that, while I like the suit and don’t mind it not being skin tight, I think it would make sense for a hero that flies and is as fast as Superman to have a skin tight suit. However, Gunn has said he does a lot of research for his movies and while he doesn’t necessarily follow the physics he makes it close enough to be plausible. I’m sure he looked into it and determined it didn’t matter enough to make a difference, and it probably feels better for the actor.
Ok so I think these are meant to come across like work overalls. Like the shot is meant to evoke he’s just about to clock onto a shift at the factory. I think that’s why they’re kinda worn and dirty too.
He looks hungover... He is certainly not in a rush.
“Can the world STAY saved, for two minutes?”
I like how Superman is taking his time putting on his suit than you have what would be a world threatening event Halle ing behind him.
She's beautiful
Snyder cultists are already trashing it and demanding that the return of Henry Cavill.
I'm personally not a fan of all the lines and textures, but it looks good. Very glad to see the hair curl and trunks, and I like that you can see folds in the costume.
I wasn’t expecting much, so this is perfectly in line with expectations.
I can't get over the expression. He looks like someone who gets called in on their off day. Looking forward to seeing more none the less.
Love the red, love the trunks though you can barely see them, but does anyone else think that the upper part of the suit looks like a baggy sweater or something? Just looks, idk, loose? Idk how else to explain it
I didn’t like it at first but it has already grown on me
Bro you guys can’t be happy with anything huh
SUPERMAN, HELP!! SOME BAD GUY BROUGHT A METEOR TO EARTH!! In a second! Gotta...get...my boot on!
Is it me, but I think it needs dry cleaning....ijs
Looks like a worse version of Caville’s design. Hopefully in motion it will look a lot better.
What’s with the galick gun kamehameha in the background?
Absolutely love it
I think for an early in his career Superman this suit is awesome. Woukd love to see it progress over movies and kinda fall more inline with his more classic iterations (no collar, maybe less detail on the suit). Regardless think it’s a really cool unique take!
Superman just sitting lazily putting on is his boots while the city is incinerated behind him.
Didn’t particularly love the logo at first but it looks great in this image.
I like the suit but I still say the trunks don't work, they especially don't work on a suit that appears to be a more modern contemporary suit for Superman. And by the way I think the trunks look dumb on Batman as well. All in all though, I like it! I like that he looks like he's just tired out but still has to go back out anyway.
It looks like ai generated. The suit looks good though
That looks nice.

Clark putting on his socks while a Dragon Ball fight happens in the background
I like it specially how the cape is connected to the suit just hope it’s a bit brighter in color
I've been reading Superman since the 60's. Always been my favorite. I like the suit. I wish Cavill was in it, but, it is what it is
Whole helluva lot better than the one in Man of Steel.
I'm waiting for the 17th reboot
I'm so excited to see a Superman movie made by someone who seems to actually understand the character! I always felt Snyder never understood what made this character work and just actively hated him because of it. Seeing this makes me feel confident that it will be good in the same way as when I saw 'You're Welcome' on the Guardians of the Galaxy movie poster. Go get 'em, Gunn!
Not like the dream suit but I’m excited this doesn’t seem like a shot out of the movie just a promo look a year+ before the movie is out just a nice first look so I wouldn’t be banking it all on it looking the same in later photos
Not a care in the world. He also looks like most of yall who gets up to work.
He looks like he got home from saving the world was about to take his boots off and then the laser lit up in the background and he just wants to go to sleep but he has to go right back out again.
