Plot

In Superman (2025), Clark Kent / Superman (David Corenswet) emerges in a world wary of his existence after intervening in an international conflict orchestrated by the powerful and manipulative billionaire Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult). Raised with human values but born with alien powers, Superman struggles to earn public trust while balancing his duty to protect with the moral complexities of his intervention. Reporter Lois Lane (Rachel Brosnahan) becomes an ally, helping him navigate both the media scrutiny and political machinations stirred up by Luthor. As tension escalates, unintended consequences of Superman’s actions ripple outward—some view him as a savior, others as a threat. With threats multiplying, both from external forces and from those who fear unchecked power, Superman must define who he is: an alien, a hero, or something beyond both. In doing so, he confronts not only physical battles but moral ones, learning that true heroism may require sacrifice, humility, and hope.
