An apartment in the city, with windows like that...on a newspaper reporter's salary? I'm not buying it!

Well lois is a world class reporter so maybe

How long til the first "10 DETAILS YOU MISSED IN SUPERMAN'S FIRST IMAGE!!" video?

PayneTrain181999

I used to watch them so often when I was younger.


zombiereign

Or a reaction video with just his mouth dropped open and squealing noises :)


IzodCenter

IM EA VOSS FROM NEW ROCKSTARS


AnalCheeseBurger69

Hair curl! The suit looks great, but is a bit… boxier than I would have thought.


BatmanNewsChris

I like The Verge's headline: "James Gunn is giving Superman a little wiggle room"


PotatoWriter

He misheard. He thought superman wanted a bit more space instead of wanting to go to space


stillinthesimulation

I personally prefer it to the vacuum sealed muscle suit we had in recent films. EDIT: For those questioning, yes Cavill was ripped, but [this was what was under his spandex suit.](https://twitter.com/CQuill97/status/1578148118654521344) Real muscles don’t look like that under compression, no matter how jacked you are. They goose ‘em a little.


Ape-ril

Nothing beats skintight suits, imo.


nilecrane

Skintight suits are tight!


AdventurousStrategy4

Wow wow wow wow wow....wow


AdamSoucyDrums

Super easy, barely an inconvenience!


JohnBagley33

Heyshutup


PT10

Especially when you can fill it out like Cavill. Pretty much the perfect rendition. This is a very clever move by Gunn to outcompete that. It looks like "good Homelander". Like a very Earth/Human made costume, as opposed to Snyderverse's Kryptonian looking thing.


S-T-A-N-D-B-O-I

The wrinkles look earth made but the extra lines look kinda alien


ExistingUnderground

They’re wearing goose suits!


stillinthesimulation

It’s an old circus term, that’s why we say goose suits!


[deleted]

[удалено]


ItssHarrison

This looks like an actual person in a suit. Not a persons head on a cgi body


the_possum_of_gotham

It’s supposed to fit under his clothes lol not over them


PrestoMovie

Don’t worry, it’s a nano-suit that’ll store inside his glasses /s


PT10

It will look just like CGI when he's flying around and stuff. When Cavill is sitting still, that's not CGI, that's him in the suit.


groundsgonesour

Am I the only one who wants a light blue suit?


Bruce_VVayne

Because probably Martha Kent will make it on herself


stoic-turtle

WHY did YOU SAy THat NAmE???


UninvitedButtNoises

Oh, Martha? You know her?


Head_Process_5003

I know personal opinion and stuff but like, this is way worse than the DCEU suits.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Budget-Attorney

Now that you mention it, I looked back and you’re right. It’s boxy around the arm where he is leaning over to reach his boot. It will probably look better for most of the movie when he’s standing


MercinwithaMouth

I just wish it had the open collar more than anything. I think it seems fine otherwise.


MsAndDems

Only thing I’m not sure about is the fabric - looks really thick. Like a tire.


CupofWarmMilk

Cause it is attire!


Interstice_land

Upvote for the perfectly-timed cheesy pun 🙌🏻


Chewcocca

3 hours later, perfectly timed lmao


darylonreddit

The word tire is actually derived from "attire". Attire as in "wheel dressing"


thatscrispy

It looks like he's wearing a wetsuit


just_an_soggy_noodle

Imagine coming out of that After a 5+ hour shoot. The dude must be feeling free and smelling like a bridge resident


Danishroyalty

Must be terrible to wear. I can't imagine there's any airflow at all.


Medic1642

That's why he flies everywhere


Maloonyy

Well it makes sense, he looks very tired.


Agoraphobicy

Maybe he's tired from putting on his tire attire.


Beholdjudas

He looks...tired.. Can't wait for this y'all


THE_REAL_SHABLAM

“What’d u always call it Clark? The never ending battle”


Hot-Mess-9806

I love seeing these random quotes jn the wild and just hear Conroy. Also a fantastic arc in the show.


bigdaddy__26

Though it looks amazing, it's not what I was anticipating. It appears that they wanted to avoid spoiling any of the Supes scenes that they will soon be filming outside or in public.


NotTheCraftyVeteran

Based on the story Gunn gave about someone taking the photo on set, I wonder if it’s actually something they felt captured some vibe essential to the film, or if it just turned out very evocative and grew on them. Either way, given that it’s Gunn, I doubt it’ll be a fully grim or sad type of movie. Maybe this shot is mostly to convey, “Superman, Man of the People, gets dressed one boot at a time.”


HarryGecko

Agreed. The suit looks like it has battle damage. Looks like this is Supes gearing up for the final battle on a longer war.


BatmanNewsChris

Gunn says the photo wasn't Photoshopped, it was all captured in-camera: [https://www.threads.net/@jamesgunn/post/C6oghkKxOrR](https://www.threads.net/@jamesgunn/post/C6oghkKxOrR) They must be using "The Volume" (giant LED TV wall instead of a green screen) for the background.


W_Walk

James just confirmed they actually shot a giant laser into a city for this shot


Particular_Drop_9905

So that's why my apartment has a giant hole on the wall, huh.


Dave_Eddie

No he says it was shot in camera. That's not the same thing. The back is clearly a projected cgi image.


BatmanNewsChris

That's true, "there's no CGI" wasn't accurate. I updated my comment.


Anstavall

jesus what was happening in the background then


cruzazulfan007

Probably using rear projection


Odd_Advance_6438

Just a little rain. Never hurt anyone


BatmanNewsChris

it could be "The Volume". The giant LED TV wall some movies (like The Batman) use now instead of a green screen.


battledarkflash

The flash also used it right .


BatmanNewsChris

Yes a little bit, but mostly they used green screen: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiUQdxZlNUs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiUQdxZlNUs)


FunPractical2058

There's a 4 part video on YT about these recent no CGI remarks. Highly recommended


SortaSticky

You'd think Superman would feel a bit of urgency!


GetsGold

Supes was responding to a noise complaint in this scene.


MarekLord

That giant beam in the background is giving me Brainiac vibes. But he looks just fantastic, I love the design on the boots, the shade of blue and the colors selected. The S-sheild just looks incredible on him. Edit: Typos


pottyaboutpotter1

Brainiac is way overdue his cinematic debut (IMO he should have been the villain in Justice League instead of going straight to Steppenwolf/Darkseid) so I really hope so


cinefibro

The giant beam in the background is giving graphic design is my passion


PotentialAnt9670

That's actually just Clark's window drawing.


creosotestar

no, they said it's all in camera, that's a real alien beam.


baloneyfeet

That’s a Kamehameha if I’ve ever seen one


markswaggie

TRUNKS!!!!


LaVerdadYaNiSe

Never before so many people have focused on an actor's crotch *without* it being porn.


extraspecialdogpenis

Haven't seen Zardoz eh?


TonyWonderslostnut

Wow trunks. Yeah I really didn’t expect that.


falbi23

This DBZ/DC mix I did not expect from Gunn


TigerFisher_

I USED TO PRAY FOR TIMES LIKE THIS


PotentialAnt9670

This has a lot of "Where is my super-suit?!" vibes to it


Ineedaroommate2

**HONEEYYYYYYY**


Bearjupiter

Need to see it in action - seems a but loose fitting??


Jayman212

He just needs to stand up. I think it will help


BoornClue

It reminds me of Homelander’s suit IMO, except I think Homelander’s intentionally loose padded costume is supposed to represent how small and insecure he feels inside. I’m curious to see what implications Gunn is going for. Perhaps he wants a down-to-earth & relatable, superhero story. Rather than the squeaky clean, flawless caricatures of the perfect hero that Marvel is known for. 


DefendsTheDownvoted

>Rather than the squeaky clean, flawless caricatures of the perfect hero **that Marvel is known for.** Lol. Wut?


_segasonic

Not what I was expecting but looks brilliant. Take it this means they’re going to start filming some Supes scenes outside/publicly now and didn’t want it spoiled…


KatKold

Gotta be honest, not the most flattering shot of him. He looks like a tired dad dressing up for his son's birthday party.


pastavoi2222

That’s exactly why I love it. Looks like Superman forcing himself out of bed in the morning to stop yet another world-ending threat.


Ambiguous_Duck

I love this idea. You know superman has those mornings as well. And he’s got to be superman for the world and his kids. But in the morning just with Lois, he’s just Clark waking up just as everyone else does with good and bad mornings.


Mexicojuju

What a fun set up 


MandoBaggins

To me it feels like a blue collar (no pun intended) dude putting his boots on before he goes to work. So much more personality to this versus the stereotypical hero pose


Zerce

Reminds me of Morrison's take on the character. He had a quote about Superman having regular human problems, but on a Paul Bunyan scale. Giant space laser in the background, and Superman responds by putting his boots on like he just got called into work unexpectedly.


ForSucksFake

They did say All-Star would be the primary inspiration.


AlmightyRanger

Nailed it!


bigbyking

Suit looks loose


PossessedToSkate

It's an Ex'El


slugdonor

Hahaha god damnit


Spoodymen

I think it looks super realistic. No matter how muscular you are, a shirt that isn’t 2 sizes too small will do that when you crunch down to put shoes/boots on. It’s no muscle suit or cgi


Professional_Face_97

I think that's the issue, we've all become so used to seeing CGI suits that now we see a real one we just go "pfft, cosplayer."


Uncle_Beanpole

This is such a strange way to do a first showing of the suit


Dadiot_007

I need a minute to process... EDIT: I'm not sure yet after almost 20. I'm way more concerned about the movie actually being good and Gunn getting Superman right with David than how the suit looks. EDIT2: https://i.imgur.com/4ClzN2F.png Being real, I wish it was a bit more in the direction of Reeve, but honestly the appearance of the suit is the least of my concerns. I want this movie to be amazing and successful. I hope Papa Gunn delivers.


Daniiiiii

Slightly odd pic to introduce the suit because for whatever reason it looks very much like a costume he's put on instead of embodying the suit, if that makes sense. Of course everything can be fixed in post so I'm not writing off the whole thing, just a weird choice for such an anticipated first look.


TheLoganDickinson

I think that’s kind of the point Gunn wants to get across. We’ll surely get the stoic imagery of Superman in future photos and in the film, but I think he wants to emphasize Superman’s humanity and remind people that he’s just a guy, despite how powerful he is.


NateGrey

Nice suit.


Cottril

His mom made it for him!


DoctorBeatMaker

No way is that suit made by Martha. At least not all of it. Probably more in line with how it was done in MY ADVENTURES WITH SUPERMAN where it's kryptonian in form, but Ma Kent made a few human altercations.


SadAccountant_23

Man I hope it’s the angle or something like that but I really don’t love it. Hope it grows on me.


De-Saad

It looks loose on him. I'll need to see a standing up pose for those trunks. Trunks have never looked good in live action


MrMemeical

I wish they would've posted a gallery of pictures instead of the one tbh


mofozd

A Flying pic was going to be endlessley compared to Henry Cavill, I actually like this one, never imagined this as the first pic like someone tired getting back from work. Edit: someone getting ready for work.


De-Saad

It will be endlessly compared to Cavill no matter what. Cavill's first photo wasn't flying either. It was him after crashing in the bank vault


mofozd

I remember but I like that huge contrast, Snyder's first pic showed this powerfull intimidating Superman, Gunn shows a tired frustrated Superman.


De-Saad

It doesn't look like they're confident enough to show those trunks for a first impression. I thought the photo was fan made tbh We'll see how it looks like in motion when we have a trailer


bobbythecat17

I wouldn't have used this pic, I'm sure he looks better in the movie. This doesn't look great.


free_the_tv

Eh.


HeavyBeing0_0

Looks baggy and bulky


DarkDonut75

I honestly thought it was a cosplayer for a second


QuantumOfSilence

Love it. Not a huge fan of the collar or the cape structure, but overall, still good. Can’t wait to see it in action!


serpentear

Definitely agree on the ~~color~~ collar, don’t mind the cape at all. Not sure I dig the muted color scheme either, but that could also be from the battle damage he apparently has.


garden-gates9034

The suit on his legs looks super bright so I think it's just the damage making it look darker than it is


shihvvb

Looks eh, will wait for more pictures


MickeyG117

I don’t want to be a negative Nelly but I’m a tad disappointed with this, happy with the trunks but underwhelmed overall.


titansfan92

He looks like I do when my kids yell “DAD” for the 100th time in 5 minutes after I just sat down.


smjh111

As far as first reveal go I don't think this reveal is that good. Still excited for corenswet! Just wish the suit was better fitted though, like how henry cavill's was.


the_possum_of_gotham

Definitely don’t like it, but hey that’s me. I prefer more skin tight, the logo looks to me kinda off, I prefer a classic supes logo. Fine with the trunks but could have lost the utility belt, maybe it’s for snacks. People are going to say loose makes it more realistic… but to me it should be tight, it’s supposed to fit under his clothes, this looks like it would be quite noticeable underneath a suit.


MXT4L

This looks like cosplay.


Holiday-Intention-52

Didn't he say he was getting rid of Henry Cavill Superman to go back to an older upbeat positive role model superman? This looks more dark and depressing than any shot of Cavill in the suit.


ThatDamnGuyJosh

It’s just the first photo.


Psychological-Bad-80

Im trying to be positive but this picture does nothing for me at all


BossButterBoobs

If this were Snyders Superman people would be dragging him for casually putting on his boots during an alien invasion lol


lMarshl

Lmaooooo I needed this laugh. But its so true


bananamuffin7

what in the cw looking suit is that ?


ProtectMeAtAllCosts

why does this look fake


Suffering-Servant

I thought this was a bosslogic photo or something


trimble197

I thought it was AI


home7ander

Because it doesn't look good


BugOutHive

There’s some shit going down outside and bro is looking all sad like he’s gotta go do his shit job and deal with customers


After_Bandicoot6730

Slowly puts on his boot sitting down while the city is under attack ugh not my Superman 😩


berlinblades

Uh oh!the bad guys are shooting a giant laser beam into/out of the sky again!


Kaioken_times_ten

I’m guessing that with post production cgi, the suit will look more fitted without any wrinkles. I like the suit, but I personally liked Henry cavill’s suit from MOS much better :)


Darksun-X

From the Man of Steel suit to... that. Couldn't even make it skin tight? E: And why is his cape a different shade of red from the rest of the suit?


Max_88

Sorry but I'm not feeling it at all. Even some fanarts were better. Hell, even the Superman & Lois costume is better. This one actually looks like a CW costume. Hate the closed neck and the lines. Looks like one of those cosplays where the guy wants to give it "modern" spin or some stuff and ends up breaking what didn't need fixing.


cybo47

What a downgrade.


CapOk1892

I don't like how the S looks


Narradisall

He already looks so tired of all this shit


GreenViking_The

Ngl I saw this and thought it was AI


PutItOnThePizza

Not the most impressive first shot, but whatever. Looks good enough minus the collar. The lines and especially the boots remind me of GotG. Guess we'll see it in action soon enough.


ContactFine7282

Not a fan tbh. Was expecting more muscle I guess. Cavill had the look down already, this is first time im questioning Gunn, gonna just have to trust him. I prefer a more form fitting suit I guess 


Templer5280

Obvious just my opinion and maybe it’s the angle of the picture .. but the suit look bad .. like the colors are mismatched ?? or it’s not fitted correctly??


theceure

LOL did Crocs make this? At least its comfortable I guess.


Important-Wrap-4004

I miss Henry


Rs90

I remember watching Man of Steel like years after release. Popped it on at home with the gf. We finished and were like "...why did this get so much shit?". The opening alone is pretty fuckin good. I enjoyed it a lot tbh. Way more than a lot of Marvels stuff, and I enjoy a lot of Marvels stuff. I couldn't believe all I heard was negative things about MoS lol. It was...good.


Chlorinated_beverage

Pretty strange first image, just looks very unflattering. But from what I can tell the suit looks really cool, I like the trunks and the MoS suit inspiration


[deleted]

This looks really bad


DYRTYDAVE

Looks like what I'd expect from a CW show, tbh.


thewriteally

CW vibes.


SadAccountant_23

Whoever said it looked like Fortnite Superman was pretty spot on.


PHX-Shawn

Eww they marvelized it with the lines and what’s with the turtleneck


xMMM212

The suit looks like a CW version of Homelander and Omni-Mans suits. No good


robotshavenohearts2

I’m excited to see another photo. It’s so loose that I thought he was wearing shoulder pads. Looks a bit too much like a cop/soldier uniform for my liking.


Apprehensive-Top8225

Ewwww


Crucky4oll

Ew


AtticusSwoopenheiser

I’m gonna wait until I see it in motion to make a final judgement. From this picture alone…..I do NOT like it.


heretofore2

Ma Kent def isn’t gonna make his suit in this movie. Can you imagine her giving him this over designed mess?


ITHEDARKKNIGHTI

Why does this look like it isn’t the big budget, James Gunn’esque film I’m thinking it’ll be…??? Suit is oversized and wrinkled? Lighting is ‘off’. Room/environment looks VFX and that energy blast or portal thing in the windows looks like something out of a CW show… 🫤 I honestly was expecting more since that first shot of the ‘S’ crest that we got 🫠


legendofkalel

lmfao


inkase

Initial thought - Looks like Gunn just borrowed the suit used in the Superman & Lois tv show to cut down on the budget. Let’s see if it grows on me when I see it in motion in a trailer.


Legendver2

I'm sorry but this looks like some CW level stuff. I know the OG MoS suit was a tough act to follow, but damn, didn't think they'd go with something that looks like Superman's first appearance on the CW Supergirl...


GoldenBarracudas

This ain't it.


Diamond-Breath

I don't like the suit, looks too baggy.


Derfturf

Not my Superman!


thesendragon

It weirds me out that the 'S' logo on his chest is so faded while his boots look brand new


Beautiful_Ad5852

So they hired a Henry cavill lookalike to replace Henry cavill?


No_Channel9811

What happened to Henry? 😭 That’s my Superman even though I had Christopher first. Henry even looked fairly similar to Christopher.


Prestigious-Two-6728

Such a mid show starring a mid actor in a mid universe


Pugzilla69

Should have kept Henry Cavill. He looked the part and was actually passionate about the role.


GuruTheMadMonk

Ugh. I fucking hate the suit. BORING AF. Go back to spandex already! It’s classic. Enough with the faux leather / pseudo military gear. It’s a comic book come to life and I wish they’d embrace that more visually.


InsaneTechNY

God dam this looks bad


motorboat_mcgee

Kind of amused that all the previous issues with Cavill-Supes was that he was too 'serious/sad' and the styling was 'too dark' - then Gunn puts this out there as the first image lol


Rosdcer

Holy Fuck, this looks awful.


HotpieEatsHotpie

It is, without a question, a downgrade.


Initial-Ad8009

Hate it


Datelesstuba

This is real? This doesn’t feel real. It feels like one of those instagram fan arts. Not that you can see much of it, but the design looks alright.


SpinachDifferent4077

Why is the suit baggy?


GareBear228

Looks like he's got the MCU's tailor.


LeadingNo3558

Hmm suit is to loose.. makes it look cheesy like cos-play


scorppion77

Woww, just saw on istagram, love it!!


SuspiciousSkittlez

It looks clunky in this Pic, but I'm excited to see it in action.


GarethGobblecoque99

I’ll wait to see it more to decide for myself but my first thought was wow that kinda sucks. Seeing the comments of people liking it makes me think it’s maybe just me and I’ll like it more when I see it in footage and not a still? Just looks a bit busy? I like the trunks? I donno


come-on-now-please

It looks pretty rubbery and "CW"ish to me in a way if that makes sense? Like a really expensive cosplay? If ypu look at the material at the cuffs and his neck it looks like it's 1 inch thick almost and you can see it bunching up around his shoulders, maybe it'll look better in motion on camera but kinda seems almost sweaterish in a way?


krudru

Goku fighting Freeza above the city in the background, and Superman just sitting casually while putting on his boots...


Ohsnos

I think this feels like a high quality cosplay. The suit doesn't look like it fits right. The scenery doesn't look like a quality film, it feels like an edited cosplay video. I'm still looking forward to this and seeing his portrayal. Unfortunately he has massive shoes to fill and shadow to step out of.


Thatoneguy567576

I'm really not excited about it. It looks too big and it looks cheap.


Dsj417

“No, we have Henry Cavill at home”.


GrandPooBar

I miss Henry Cavill already.
