James Gunn’s Superman: First Look At Daily Planet

Take a look at the Daily Planet in James Gunn’s Superman.

An image has surfaced from Cleveland, Ohio of the Leader Building where at least the entrance has been transformed into the outside of the Daily Planet.

The Leader building was originally built in 1913 to house The Cleveland Leader, a Cleveland newspaper, and the Cleveland News, but has since been turned into retails space, offices, and apartments. At the time, The Leader Building was the largest office building in Cleveland.

David Corenswet stars as Superman and mild mannered reporter, Clark Kent, with Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane.

Making up the additional Daily Planet newsroom includes Wendell Pierce as Perry White, Beck Bennett as Steve Lombard, Mikaela Hoover as Cat Grant, and Christopher MacDonald as Ron Troupe.
