Recently, some behind-the-scenes photos of “Superman: Legacy” starring David Corenswet were leaked, causing a huge wave of controversy in the DC fan community. Some people praised the new Superman’s costume for being close to the original, while others criticized it because they saw it as a copy of Henry Cavill.

Recently, many behind-the-scenes photos of the movie Superman: Legacy were taken and published by paparazzi of the Cleveland website . After that, many locals where the film crew chose to film also competed to post the photos they took on social networks.

These photos reveal the new Superman (played by David Corenswet), female reporter Lois Lane – Superman’s girlfriend (played by Rachel Brosnahan) and Mister Terrific (played by Edi Gathegi), a superhero character adapted for the big screen for the first time

After the above photos were widely circulated, public opinion, especially DC fans, had two opposing opinions about Superman’s appearance. Many people praised the superhero’s costume for its color scheme, details and “comic standard” texture, typically like in classic stories Adventure Comics #247 or All-Star Superman .

David Corenswet’s Superman is very close to the original comic book.

Along with the positive reactions, many viewers also criticized the new Superman costume. Some opinions said that except for the adjustment of the pants and costume color, the new Superman’s appearance is no different from a ” copy-paste ” of Henry Cavill, from the hairstyle to the demeanor.

And if director James Gunn was determined to “eliminate” Henry Cavill from the new DC Universe to choose another actor for the role of Superman, he had to ensure that he created a character with his own highlights and personality, not an unattractive “copy” that is less likely to leave an impression on the audience in the future.

The “two but one” look of two versions of Superman.

Some comments from netizens :

” Too beautiful, too close to the comic, bright colors bring bright hope to DCU. ”

” Your vibe David Corenswet is fine, very fine. ”

” The costume looks like a throwback to 90s Superman, out of date. ”

” I mean, people can’t criticize a character just from behind-the-scenes photos, what about post-production and CGI? ”

“Every time I mention Superman, I think of Henry, and when I watch Journey to the West, I immediately think of Liu Xiao Ling Tong. So I think it’s difficult to replace a cinematic icon. ”
