David Corenswet has done it! His Superman movie has surpassed the domestic haul of Henry Cavill’s Man of Steel as the highest-grossing solo Superman movie ever. He and James Gunn can breathe a sigh of relief now. This has been possible because of their fresh content and people’s willingness to see it without holding on to the past. Keep scrolling for the deets.

Ever since James Gunn and Peter Safran took over DC Studios and cast David as the new Kal-El, there have been huge uproars on social media. Cavill is a charming person who wooed the fans as the brooding Clark Kent. Thus, people were not quite ready to accept Corenswet in this role, but this success shows that people have moved on and given him a chance.

Surpasses Man of Steel as the biggest solo Clark Kent film

Henry Cavill-starrer Man of Steel was released in 2013, and Zack Snyder directed it. It showcased Kal-El in a different light, and people loved it, especially when they fell in love with Cavill in that character. The 2013 film collected $291.04 million in its domestic run. David Corenswet‘s film has surpassed that in less than 20 days.
