Hollywood is no stranger to insane physical transformations. The profession often asks for the actors and performers to go through unreal weight loss transformations, or to gain a ton of muscle mass in a short span of time for a role. The most recent jaw-dropping fitness transformation that we have witnessed is of David Corenswet, who will be starring as the next Superman in the upcoming movie ‘Superman: Legacy.’

Corenswet has been bashed by the fans for his slim and skinny physique countless times before. However, in a recently posted YouTube short, David looks ready to step in Cavill’s shoes. While many fans seemed impressed by his new look, many DC fans are still skeptical about whether or not David would be a good fit for the role of Superman.
