Superman

We’re still trying to make Superman a thing again, eh? In an era of flawed, humanist heroes, it’s proven difficult to make an invincible Space Jesus all that appealing. But if anyone can make him interesting – or at least fun – it’s writer-director James Gunn, whose script appears to depict a crisis of identity for the Man of Steel. Twisters’ David Corenswet is the latest square-jawed white guy to tug Christopher Reeve’s cape, but the most intriguing bit of casting is Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor.
