    New New New Superman and Lois on set

     

    Cinematically speaking, Christopher Reeve was Superman, Brandon Routh was New Superman, Henry Cavill was New New Superman, which makes David Corenswet New New New Superman. Corenswet was on set in Cleveland yesterday along with Rachel Brosnahan, giving us a look at our many-new Superman and Lois in action.

     

    People are super in their feelings about Superman’s costume bringing back the classic yellow belt and red pants, most because of nostalgia—the suit also has the yellow “S” logo on the cape—as Corenswet’s whole look is clearly derived from Christopher Reeve, whose suit was lifted straight out of the comics. Though some are in their feelings because the new suit looks a little silly and Superman is supposed to be Big Tough Man…in a cape.

     

    Honestly, between watching dudes melt down over Superman’s silly little belt and speedo and The Bikeriders not being a tough guy movie (it’s Drive all over again!), it’s been a rough few days for insecure men. They really need their tough guy emblems to prop up their sense of masculinity, and Superman wearing a sporty little belt with his swim trunks is a direct threat to their testosterone levels. 

     

    Every superhero costume looks dumb on set, even the really well designed ones, like Robert Pattinson’s beginner Batsuit, look stupid as f-ck on set. Everyone HAS to remember that, especially as we’re on the cusp of seeing new Fantastic Four suit designs later this summer, and they’re sure to be dumb as hell (those costumes are just footie pajamas, change my mind). David Corenswet looks as convincing as any dark-haired hunk who has ever played Clark Kent, and the hope is that we aren’t really tuned into the suit so much in the moment, when we’re watching the movie, because we’re swept away by the adventure and thrill of it all. Until then, yes, Superman’s suit is dumb. Every version is dumb. 

     

    Meanwhile, Rachel Brosnahan looks GREAT as Lois Lane. Honestly, I’m more excited about her than Superman, at the moment.

     

     

  2. @Lilja K and the trailer ;)

     

     

    Zemeckis' “Here” (11.15.24) is a risk-taking endeavor as it was shot from a single POV, without movement or zooms, across a centuries-spanning narrative. I covered the film yesterday, and now a trailer has been released.

    Based on Richard McGuire’s graphic novel, “Here,” which clocks in at 104 minutes, covers the events of a single room and its inhabitants spanning from the past (paleolithic, dinosaurs) to well into the future as Tom Hanks and Robin Wright get de-aged in a film that sees them meet as teenagers and grow old well into their 80s.

    In “Here,” Zemeckis uses deepfake VFX to de-age actors with the help of effects studio Metaphysic. The technology will use high-resolution photorealistic face swaps and de-aging effects on top of actors’ performances live and in real-time without the need for further compositing or VFX work.
