So, in November 2019, David Corenswet said that he’d been told he looks like Henry Cavill and:
If this was in a movie, we’d call it foreshadowing!

I don't know his work, but now I feel like I actively want this guy for the part.
Rachel Brosnahan reacts to THR's report that she is a candidate for Lois:
Very much a "can neither confirm nor deny" response to the report (much like Gunn's). But it strikes me that her description of Lois ("this incredibly talented journalist who is far from a damsel in distress") does not sound like the words of someone caught off guard by a question about a character to whom she has given no thought.

I think "I grew up watching Lois Lane" is enough to account for that.
I like the dark and gritty take. 
I watched the latest animated movie, Batman: The Doom that came to Gotham the other day and that was a weird one. It’s essentially Batman vs Cthulhu and it’s very dark with a very high death count. I did like the takes on some of the known characters. It’s interesting how flexible they are. They can alter them quite extensively and they still feel like the characters you know and love.

Bright and gritty.
Gunn has already promised an emotional Superman and an emotional film:

Superman '78 is also plenty emotional:
Anyway, a happy, optimistic character is every bit as legitimate as an angsty, tortured one. Positive emotions are emotions, too. They're even "realistic." I know, because I've experienced them. I hope you have also.
I very often disagree with you, but here, I am 100% in agreement.
Agreed. No one is a walking seminar on grinning in the face of personal and/or global adversity, especially a character in the position of Superman.
We all have our preferences and favorites, but this character will outlive all of them and all of us. Henry Cavill's portrayal will always be there for his fans to enjoy, as will those of Christopher Reeve, George Reeves, and all the other actors who've worn the "S." IMO, there's no reason you can't enjoy multiple versions, and certainly no reason to dismiss Gunn's take sight unseen. Who knows? Maybe it will be the new "best ever."
Theatrical Justice League shot detected!
I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to use that as an argument in favor of anything.
