Rachel Brosnahan
Golden Globe and Primetime Emmy Award-winning actress Rachel Brosnahan plays Lois Lane in Gunn’s movie. People have praised her chemistry with Corenswet. Some of her other movies include I’m Your Woman, The Finest Hours, and more. However, she is popular and has won awards for the series The Marvelous Mrs Maisel. Although she is a known face, she is not so popular that she would be the highest-paid in the cast, as she, too, reportedly received $750K for her role.
Nicholas Hoult
Nicholas Hoult portrays Lex Luthor in this movie and has probably showcased the best portrayal of the DC villain. He has been part of many tentpole multi-starrer movies, and the most notable ones are the X-Men movie and Mad Max: Fury Road. He did a great job as Lex in Superman as well. He is the most experienced among the three in the leading cast, hence the highest-paid. Hoult has reportedly been paid $2 million for the villainous role, which is 33% more than the combined salaries of Rachel Brosnahan and David Corenswet.
However, the report does not reveal the salaries of the remaining cast members. James Gunn’s Superman, which was released on July 11, is expected to earn $130 million—$140 million on its opening weekend in North America.
