David Corenswet Reflects on Playing Superman and the Role’s Deeper Stakes
In a recent interview with Time, Corenswet talked up his Man of Steel.
“Would this be worth doing if this was the only thing I do as an actor for the rest of my life?” he questioned. “I think the answer is yes.”
“Compared to Batman and Spider-Man, he isn’t depicted as having great inner turmoil. If he’s invincible, what’s at stake?” Corenswet said: “All the important stuff. You can be the most well-adjusted, well-intentioned person, but people will still die. You can’t save everyone forever.”
