The names of contenders who can play the role of Superman have been revealed in a report by The Hollywood Reporter.

David Corenswet, best known for his role in Pearl, is among the top contenders to play Superman.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the actor has advanced to the screen test stage.

According to the publication, two other contenders may also be in the mix but their identities remain unknown.

The report said that casting for Superman: Legacy, the feature that is meant to kick off Gunn and Peter Safran’s much-vaunted first chapter of DC Studios, is hitting a crucial phase.

Citing sources, the Hollywood Reporter said Jacob Elordi name also surfaced for the role of Kent but he never submitted himself into the ring.
