Pierson Fode (The brave and the beautiful) was one of many actors being considered for the role of Clark Kent/Superman in James Gunn’St Superman: Legacy.
To aid in his efforts to try and land the gig, he’s made a flying stunt video showcasing his Superman abilities in action! This is actually a really cool little video and it was shared by Action Factory.
The video shows Fodé flying around, viciously punching a guy in the face, and using Superman’s heat vision. He effectively demonstrates that he could have been a good choice for the lead role in Superman: Legacybut now we know David Corenswet was cast as Clark Kent/Superman and Rachel Brosnahan was cast as Lois Lane.
Better luck next time, Fodé! Check out her amazing video below!

Gunn recently said of the audition process, “Now that we’ve done a lot of auditions, we’re narrowing it down. We’re not done yet. By the way, there are a lot of stories out there about who we’re auditioning and all these auditions. I’m just saying it’s not all true, that’s for sure. There are things in there that are completely false, but I can’t go out there and say, ‘Oh, this isn’t true, and this isn’t true’ without going through it all.
We have heard it David Corenswet (Pearl, Hollywood and the politician) is the first pick for Superman followed by Jacob Elordi (The Kissing Booth), AND Andrew Richardson (Daughter of the bride) who are also ready for the role.
Some of the other items include Rachel Brosnahan (The wonderful Mrs. Maisel), Samara texture (Ready or Not), Phoebe Dynevor (Bridgerton), AND Emma Mackey (Sex education) for the role of Lois Lane. Nicholas Hoult (Renfeld) is also in the running, perhaps as Lex Luthor.
The film will tell the story of “Superman’s journey to reconcile his Kryptonian heritage with his human upbringing as Clark Kent of Smallville, Kansas. He is the embodiment of truth, justice and the American way, driven by human kindness in a world that sees kindness as old-fashioned.
Superman: Legacy will launch the film portion of DC Studios’ Gods and Monsters: Part 1. The film will be released on July 11, 2025.
