Director James Gunn has unveiled the new Superman suit for his upcoming superhero film, and it’s a departure from the classic design.

At first glance, the suit looks quite worn and dirty, suggesting there will be lots of action-packed battle scenes to enjoy.

So what’s the internet’s take on this grittier look for the iconic character?

People took to social media to share their admittedly mixed thoughts.

David Corenswet, known for his roles in Netflix series like 'The Politician' and 'Hollywood', steps into the red and blue suit. This marks his first time leading a major Hollywood film, and fans are eager to see his take on the legendary hero.

Other stars in the film include Emmy winner Rachel Brosnahan, who takes on the role of Lois Lane - Superman’s intrepid reporter love interest, while Nicholas Hoult steps into the shoes of Superman’s infamous nemesis, Lex Luthor. Gunn’s cast also includes Skyler Gisondo as Jimmy Olsen, Anthony Carrigan as Metamorpho, Edi Gathegi as Mister Terrific, Nathan Fillion as Guy Gardner, and Isabela Merced as Hawkgirl.

'Superman' is expected to be in cinemas on July 11th, 2025.
