I like David Corenswet more than Cavill. How about you?
One of my greatest frustrations with Cavill’s Superman was the lack of dialog. It felt like David’s Superman had more dialog in one film than Cavill did in all three appearances in the dceu. More on reddit.com

David Corenswet Is on the 2025 TIME100 Next
September 30, 2025 - I’ve learned so much from David Corenswet—as an actor, as a father, and from the time we took a lie-detector test together. He has this rare ability to be completely present with the people around him and to truly understand them. His awareness and caring make him both a brilliant actor and a natural leader.

Jonathan Bailey, David Corenswet on Wicked, Superman and 'Sexiest Man Alive'
2 weeks ago - Instead, they’ve become heartthrobs — with Corenswet’s dark hair and strong jaw earning him Clark Kent comparisons years before he booked the role and Bailey recently being crowned as People’s first openly gay Sexiest Man Alive — at the center of box office smashes. But as they marvel at their own successes and each other’s, their most profound similarity isn’t their career trajectories. It’s their earnestness. David Corenswet: I said to James Gunn, “If you wanted somebody cool, you should have hired somebody else.” And he was like, “Oh, believe me.

r/superman on Reddit: I like David Corenswet more than Cavill. How about you?
August 15, 2025 -
In my opinion he was the better Superman. I do like Cavill as a person and he definitely looks like Superman, but Zack Snyder didn’t do the character of Superman justice. I feel like Zack Snyder didn’t really read comics and just kinda saw that he was super powerful so he made that his whole personality. Which sucks since I know that Cavill wanted to portray a comic accurate Superman. And he would’ve done a good job, too. I’d love to see him return someday if the DCU ever gets into multiversal stuff though. Anyway, I’m glad that we have David Corenswet and I couldn’t have asked for a better Superman movie.

Corenswet had much better material to work with. It’s unreasonable to place any fault on Cavill for how the films went. I think they are par with each other as Superman, but Corenswet is the far superior Clark.

I like both. They're both diffrent takes on the character.
