Bradley Cooper as Jor-El? Superman Casting Leak! 🔥

#superman #dc #marvel #marvelstudios #spiderman #batman #hollywood #jamesgunn #dccomics #dcuniverse #daredevilbornagain As anticipation for James Gunn’s highly awaited Superman reaches new heights, test screenings are in full swing. With them, inevitable leaks have begun to surface, offering tantalizing glimpses into what fans can expect from this fresh take on the Man of Steel. One of the most significant revelations to emerge is the casting of Superman’s Kryptonian father, Jor-El—a role that has been the subject of intense speculation in recent weeks.

Early rumors suggested that Hollywood heavyweights such as Tom Cruise or Chris Pratt might be in contention for the part. However, according to a credible leak from ViewerAnon, the prestigious role has gone to none other than 12-time Academy Award nominee Bradley Cooper. Best known for his work in The Hangover, A Star is Born, and his voice performance as Rocket Raccoon in the Guardians of the Galaxy franchise, Cooper's involvement in Superman comes as both a surprising and fitting choice.

Cooper’s portrayal of Jor-El is expected to be brief, appearing only in the film’s opening sequence. This strongly indicates that Superman will once again revisit Krypton’s tragic final moments, depicting the destruction of Kal-El’s home planet before his journey to Earth. While this revelation doesn’t spoil major plot points, it does confirm that Gunn’s take on the iconic hero will retain key elements of Superman’s origin story.

With Warner Bros. set to present its Superman footage at CinemaCon in just a few days, speculation is rampant about whether a new trailer will be released publicly or kept exclusive to attendees. Regardless, the confirmation of Bradley Cooper as Jor-El has already fueled excitement and debate among fans.

Beyond his Superman cameo, Cooper remains deeply entrenched in the comic book movie world. He is expected to return as Rocket Raccoon in upcoming Marvel Cinematic Universe projects, including Avengers: Doomsday and Avengers: Secret Wars. His remarkable career spans a range of critically acclaimed films, from Maestro and Nightmare Alley to Licorice Pizza and Limitless, cementing his status as one of Hollywood’s most versatile and celebrated actors.

As the Superman cast continues to shape up, David Corenswet steps into the role of Clark Kent, with Rachel Brosnahan as Lois Lane and Nicholas Hoult as Lex Luthor. The star-studded ensemble also includes Edi Gathegi, Anthony Carrigan, Nathan Fillion, Isabela Merced, and Milly Alcock as Supergirl. With its July 11 release date drawing closer, James Gunn’s Superman promises to usher in a bold new era for the DC Universe—one that begins with the legacy of Jor-El.

What would be a massive surprise and big, big, big improvement is to NOT spend half the damn movie on an origin story we already know or his well know childhood.

He's just for two minutes at the beginning of the movie, not that huge tbh, not even mid.
