David Corenswet is perhaps the titular tremendous man in James Gunn’s 2025 “Superman” film, however based on a report from Matt Belloni at Puck Information, he isn’t the very best paid member of the principle forged.
This could possibly be perceived as considerably scandalous, as a result of the report claims that Corenswet, who performs Clark Kent within the film, was paid $750,000 — the identical quantity as his Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan of “The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel” fame) — whereas Nicholas Hoult, who’s been a big-screen staple for a long time at this level, netted the very best wage of the principle forged with a reported $2 million. (Bear in mind, Robert Downey Jr. was solely paid $500,000 for the primary “Iron Man,” and Chris Evans acquired $300,000 for the primary “Captain America.”) As Belloni says, although, it is essential to notice that each one three of the “Superman” stars may get some fairly massive bonuses if (nicely, extra probably, when) their film blows everybody away on the field workplace.
It is also essential to underline the truth that each Corenswet and Brosnahan are tv actors who’re, as Belloni put it, “untested in movie.” Hoult, then again, has been part of arthouse favorites, vital darlings, and big blockbusters since he acquired his begin in “A few Boy” in 2002. Sure, Hoult did the mandatory stint on “Skins” (different future stars hailing from Britain like Daniel Kaluuya did the identical), however he is additionally been in motion pictures like “Mad Max: Fury Highway,” “The Favorite,” “X-Males: First Class” and its sequels, “The Menu,” “Juror No. 2,” and “Nosferatu.”
The paychecks have been considerably larger for the final big-budget standalone Superman film, 2013’s “Man of Metal,” however that one forged marquee names like Amy Adams, Michael Shannon, and Russell Crowe. In any case, it looks as if 2025’s “Superman” goes to do simply nice on the field workplace, and evaluations have been fairly overwhelmingly optimistic.
