David Corenswet as Superman (2025) next to Henry Cavill as Superman from Justice League (2017)
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT David Corenswet's outfit for the DCU's Superman has been revealed, bringing to light the ways it is different, similar, and unique in comparison to comics and movies past. Although the film has been in production since February 2024, updates about James Gunn's DCU Superman movie have been somewhat rare since the barrage of casting announcements that confirmed the film's main characters.
As alluded to, it is difficult to compare boots to other costumes be it live-action or comics, as footwear is hardly something that requires regular changes. However, the boots draw comparisons to Christopher Reeve's Superman costume from the 1978 movie. They have the same V-shaped delve at the top, an element shared by other live-action Superman actors including Brandon Routh, Henry Cavill, and Tyler Hoechlin.
The red trunks being part of Superman links to the comics, with most versions across the decades also wearing them. However, much like how Corenswet's Superman is bringing the trunks back for the first time in years in live-action, the same can be said for the comics. Most classic versions of Clark wore red trunks, though the New 52 DC rebrand saw the DC comic Superman costume change this.
