Superman Cast’s Highest-Paid Actor Revealed, Isn’t David Corenswet

by

It’s been disclosed that the top three actors from the Superman film cast aren’t earning the same salary, with David Corenswet, our title character, not being the highest-paid. The debut DC Studios movie based on the DC Universe is currently screening in cinemas globally.

The following synopsis describes how, in his distinctive manner, James Gunn reinterprets the original superhero within the fresh DC universe. He skillfully combines intense action, humor, and emotional depth to create a Superman who is motivated by compassion and an unwavering faith in human kindness.

In a unique way, director James Gunn portrays the classic superhero in a new version of the DC universe, combining exciting action scenes, funny moments, and heartfelt emotions. The Superman he presents is driven by compassion and deeply believes in human goodness.

Who is the highest-paid actor in the Superman cast?

As a movie enthusiast, I’m thrilled to share some exciting news about Nicholas Hoult, who’s made quite a name for himself in the film industry. According to recent reports from Puck, he’s just bagged a mind-blowing $2 million deal to play Lex Luthor in the DCU! This makes him the highest-paid actor within the Superman cast.

Before diving into the DCU, Hoult has left indelible marks with his exceptional performances in the X-Men series by Fox, Warm Bodies, and Mad Max: Fury Road. Truly a versatile talent, I can’t wait to see what he brings to the role of Lex Luthor!

Regarding their co-stars, Corenswet and Rachel Brosnahan, they were initially paid $750,000 each. This is because they don’t have extensive experience in leading movie franchises or blockbusters yet, although Brosnahan has a notable TV career that earned critical acclaim. Similar to the leads of many superhero films, Hoult, Corenswet, and Brosnahan also stand to receive bonuses if Superman proves successful at the box office.

In this film titled Superman, James Gunn takes the helm both in writing and directing, drawing inspiration from the DC characters originally conceived by Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster. Skyler Gisondo portrays Jimmy Olsen, Wendell Pierce becomes Perry White, Mikaela Hoover assumes the role of Cat Grant, Beck Bennett steps into Steve Lombard’s shoes, María Gabriela de Faría embodies The Engineer, Sara Sampaio plays Eve Teschmacher, Anthony Carrigan dons the role of Metarmorpho, Frank Grillo transforms into Rick Flag Sr., Edi Gathegi and Isabela Merced bring Hawkgirl to life, Nathan Fillion takes on Green Lantern, Pruitt Taylor Vince and Neva Howell slip into the roles of Jonathan Kent and Martha Kent respectively. Alan Tudyk, Michael Rooker, and Grace Chan also make notable appearances in this production, which is overseen by Nikolas Korda, Chantal Nong Vo, and Lars Winther as executive producers.
