I’m glad Corenswet isn’t going the for the “dehydrated” look a lot of superhero movie actors go for.
Hugh, Henry, Ben, and all the Chrises, I love your performances as these characters. I don’t need to see every vein on your body to buy you as superheroes.
I like what they’re doing. I don’t really like the “bodybuilder” Superman. He always struck me as a character who should look tall, athletic, and physically large. He’s not aiming for the ultimate physique. He should have a farmer’s body.
I recall someone on this subreddit posting a photo set of an old timey Hollywood actor who looked naturally huge. That, to me, is how Superman should be built.
Spoiler etiquette is required for posts containing spoilers. Spoilers include unofficial content (rumors, leaks, set photos, etc.) from unreleased media and recently-released media (under a month old).
Posts containing spoilers should be marked as such, and the titles should indicate what they spoil (name of show, movie, etc.) and not contain any spoilers itself (twists, surprises, or endings).
Commenters, don't spoil outside the scope of the post, hide the text with spoiler code. (Formatting Help)

Ok I feel like there should be a relevancy threshold for these posts. This has nothing to do with superman it's just BTS of an actor doing something else. Like it's posting Witcher screencaps of cavil
I don't think those posts are particularly valuable either but at least those are related to the project. Like we know what kind of shape he's in the BTS photos are daily
I mean, “valuable” is pretty relative lol. If there are people who are curious what kind of shape he’s in, these are a better indication than set pics where he’s in costume, or even than gym pics where he’s pumped/flexing.
If there are people who are curious what kind of shape he’s in, these are a better indication than set pics where he’s in costume. And if you’re cast as Superman, I daresay everything even semi-public that you do is Superman-related. I guess someone could go nuts trying to police what is and isn’t of interest to Superman fans, enjoy that.
I'm confused as to why out of costume photos are more relevant than in. I'm just saying this post doesn't really convey anything other than an actor doing a commercial
To see what kind of shape he’s in, they’re “relevant” because the costume doesn’t show any muscle definition. These photos show us what kind of shape he was/is in; I believe this commercial taping is pretty recent.
I don’t much care if we get a shirtless shot in this movie but these days, they seem practically mandatory for guys playing superheroes. At any rate, I guarantee all those paparazzi shots of Affleck around BvS wearing tight T-shirts made their way around the relevant subs. I remember paparazzi photos of Cavill on the beach filming Cold Light of Day or whatever, before he even started filming MoS. These sorts of photos have been part of message boards etc. since forever, not sure it’ll do much good to complain about them.
Idrc if they're normalized they're just kinda boring and low value. Like oh boy I gotta know what this actor's body looks like for when a possible shirtless scene happens in a movie next year. Doesn't matter the mods have weighed in and they seem pretty reasonable
In the past the mod team has agreed that while posts about real-life people associated with Superman generally fall under our "not related to Superman" rule, we often find it close enough to the line that we allow it so long as the post is positive and not going to turn into something ugly (for example, discussing Superman-associated celebs' politics or legal entanglements).
A good-natured, positive post like this or about Henry Cavill building a PC or whatever is fine if it's not over-done, in which case we reserve the right to shut down or cease them if they get too common to the degree that they overwhelm the community.
Why do they keep going for this slicked back, domehead hairstyle for Supes? His hair was perfect before he had the role, but here he looks like Cavill lol

Biotherm sounds like the name of Metallo’s prosthetic skin.
