David Corenswet is likely to be the titular tremendous man in James Gunn’s 2025 “Superman” film, however in line with a report from Matt Belloni at Puck Information, he isn’t the very best paid member of the principle solid.
This might 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 many years at this level, netted the very best wage of the principle solid with a reported $2 million. (Take into account, 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 necessary to notice that each one three of the “Superman” stars may get some fairly large bonuses if (effectively, extra seemingly, when) their film blows everybody away on the field workplace.
It is also necessary to underline the truth that each Corenswet and Brosnahan are tv actors who’re, as Belloni put it, “untested in movie.” Hoult, however, has been part of arthouse favorites, important darlings, and large 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 films like “Mad Max: Fury Street,” “The Favorite,” “X-Males: First Class” and its sequels, “The Menu,” “Juror No. 2,” and “Nosferatu.”
The paychecks had been considerably greater for the final big-budget standalone Superman film, 2013’s “Man of Metal,” however that one solid marquee names like Amy Adams, Michael Shannon, and Russell Crowe. In any case, it looks as if 2025’s “Superman” goes to do simply wonderful on the field workplace, and evaluations have been fairly overwhelmingly optimistic.
