Joining Corenswet on this cinematic journey is Emmy winner Rachel Brosnahan, who takes on the role of the intrepid reporter Lois Lane. The star-studded cast also includes Nicholas Hoult, popularly known for playing Hank “The Beast” McCoy in the X-Men series, as the nefarious Lex Luthor, along with a diverse ensemble featuring Skyler Gisondo, Anthony Carrigan, Edi Gathegi, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, and more.
