Superman (formerlySuperman: Legacy) is now filming, and the cast has marked the moment with a new video.
Shared by Lois Lane star Rachel Brosnahan, theTikToksees her looking at the camera as the Superman 1978 main theme plays. She’s then joined by a bald Nicholas Hoult (who’s already looking like his character Lex Luthor) and the Man of Steel himself David Corenswet who move their heads into the frame.
The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel star also shared a perfect caption to go along with it: “A supervillain, a journalist and an alien walk into a bar…” Fans were particularly excited to see the trio together on set, with a lot of love for Hoult’s supervillain look,which we had previously only glimpsed in a cast photo. Check it out below, and pay close attention to Hoult’s choice of clothing: yes, that’s a sweater featuring the Creature Commandos, the DCU’s first project.
