James Gunn Reveals Superman Filming Wrap Gift From Lex Luthor Actor Nicholas Hoult
Superman writer-director and DC Studios co-head James Gunn thanks Nicholas Hoult for a wrap gift after the actor completed his filming as Lex Luthor.
Putting the spotlight on Superman itself, Superman writer-director and DC Studios co-head James Gunn touched upon Corenswet’s Superman screen test with Lois Lane actor Rachel Brosnahan, avowing, “One year ago today David and Rachel screen-tested for Clark and Lois. When they first read together it was like magic. What a wonderful year it’s been with two of the most extraordinary, vibrant, and meticulous actors I’ve ever had the opportunity to work with. I can’t wait for you to see them on screen in just a little over a year.”
“Superman and Supergirl. Played by David Corenswet and Milly Alcock. Who else is looking forward to this meeting?”
Tying into that, Brosnahan revealed what drew her to the role, asserting that she’s always loved Lois Lane and that Lois is “smart, ambitious and can be funny.” Brosnahan added, “She knows she’s the smartest person in the room more often than not. When the opportunity came on…I’m such a fan of James Gunn from afar…we’re still finding these characters. We haven’t started shooting yet. You’ll meet the final version of them.”

Superman Crewmember Dies Tragically Near Atlanta Movie Set
A crewmember working on James Gunn’s Superman movie was found deceased near the set.
Shifting the focus to Supergirl: Woman of Tomorrow, Gunn delved into Alcock being cast as Supergirl in January, remarking at the time, “Strangely, Milly was the FIRST person I brought up to Peter [Safran] for this role, well over a year ago, when I had only read the comics. I was watching House of the Dragon & thought she might have the edge, grace & authenticity we needed for the DCU’s Supergirl. And now here we are. Life is wild sometimes.”
Milly Alcock Gets Support From Supergirl Star Melissa Benoist
Additionally, veteran Supergirl actor Melissa Benoist shared her two cents on Alcock’s casting, conveying that she thinks “any and all takes on the character are valuable because of what she stands for.” She went on to further note, “Supergirl as an entity is iconic for a reason and has been since the ’50s. I personally think that every iteration of her is valuable for young women to see, and hopefully [with] every take on her, someone will see themselves in it.”
Circling back to Superman, Gunn promised that Superman won’t feel like a Guardians of the Galaxy movie in 2023. Gunn also promised that the Last Son of Krypton’s newest cinematic outing won’t be a silly one.
